Preach girl this is what I've been saying forever. Trump is a grade a ass hole, but that dosent mean is policies were bad
I agree. I only compare presidents from when I was alive and old enough to understand what was actually happening so Biden is definitely the worst by far.

Take it from someone who lived through Nixon and Watergate. Nixon was a class act compared to Trump. At least Nixon did what was best for the country.

"I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But as President, I must put the interest of America first. America needs a full-time President and a full-time Congress, particularly at this time with problems we face at home and abroad.
To continue to fight through the months ahead for my personal vindication would almost totally absorb the time and attention of both the President and the Congress in a period when our entire focus should be on the great issues of peace abroad and prosperity without inflation at home.
Therefore, I shall resign the Presidency effective at noon tomorrow. Vice President Ford will be sworn in as President at that hour in this office."

"Now, it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. And after this, we're going to walk down, and I'll be there with you, we're going to walk down, we're going to walk down.
Anyone you want, but I think right here, we're going to walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them.
Because you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong. We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing..."
... and, of course, he didn't walk down there with him, did he?
Instead, he stayed in the White House and watched on TV the assault on the Capitol and did NOTHING for 2 hours! NOTHING! He could have said something and stopped it. NOTHING!
He's not interested in what's best for America... he never was... he was interested in what's best for Donald Trump.
Compare that with what Nixon said in his resignation speech - which I heard live on TV that night...
"America needs a full-time President and a full-time Congress, particularly at this time with problems we face at home and abroad.

Trump?
A year now of "stop the steal" bullshit and keeping the country divisive.
Nixon wouldn't have done that. He understood the greater good. He may have been a scumbag in many ways, but Richard Nixon was an actual patriot and he proved that with his resignation. Instead of being impeached, he resigned.
But, Trump... he's impeached twice and rightfully so.
Hey I’m with ya I won’t vote for trump ever after the way he ended his presidency. I also won’t vote for Biden the way he’s running his presidency
@Lexigirl96 It's hard to get things done when the other party says "No" to everything and you have to appease members in your own party who are de facto with the other party. This is the modern era of dysfunctional politics for you.
It's now just a matter of time before an assassination occurs. There almost were some on 06 JAN 2021.
More than that even. Trump was mailed anthrax a few times. It happens with every president. Being a president holds a certain amount of danger to it
