I’m pretty down with absolute worst ever, lacking a single redeeming achievement or quality.

No one should hold their breath waiting for justice to be visited upon Jared Kushner. His kind floats above the usual systems in place to exact a penalty for criminal malfeasance.

I would say that if you manage to undo the results of the Civil War for over a century, that’s a shitshow of presidential accomplishment that puts Trump to shame. Of course, it remains to be seen how long Trumpismo will continue, so he’s certainly in the running for Worst President Ever. I would say he’s already worse than Dubya, and that’s really saying something.

I would prefer that the President plummet out of Marine-1 and be impaled on the Washington monument. If this is preceded and accompanied by chants of “The President should step down!”, then I would ask that chant be amended to “The President should step out!”

I’ve long contended that Dubya and Obama colluded to put him in office.
Dubya so he’d no longer be the stupidest president ever, Obama so he’d be eternally revered by folks nostalgic for normalcy.

You’d have to underperform very badly to best Andrew Johnson for sheer shit-show term in office.

I live fairly close to New York-Presbyterian/Allen Hospital at 207th and Broadway and it was the same here.
This is the hospital that had the woman who was the medical director of the emergency department commit suicide.

I think we can easily agree that he’s the worst in living memory.

I can’t argue with anything @txlawyer, @castor_troy, or @nydan516 has already said on this subject. But it may be a few (or many) more years before we realize the full extent of the damage trump has done.

We probably won’t know the full magnitude of this largely preventable tragedy for years. But when it is known, Trump’s name will be even more disgraced than it is currently.
Upon his passing, he would be wise to ask for a burial next to Bin Laden, whose hateful record he has far surpassed.

I would love to float a rumor that tRump is planning to defect to Russia.

Just as brilliant works of art have come from the AIDS tragedy in the ‘80s, 9/11, and the tsunami that devastated SE Asia in 2004, I’m sure brilliant books will be written, movies and binge worthy TV shows developed, and other works of art created as well about Covid-19, but I won’t be able to enjoy any of it. It’ll never not cause within me immense sadness and overwhelming anger.

Trump-with 10X the death toll of Bin Laden in New York. His supporters would approve and call it culling the herd.

He isn’t?
I believe the moral of this story, once it finally ends, will be literally ETTD. And if you want a more encompassing motto that doesn’t emphasis death then it would be : Trump always makes things worse.
And I’m still waiting for someone to explain how Fred Sr raised his son(s) to be ruthless and not back down failed to add in that child raising philosophy, ‘use these tools to win’. Trump really is Gozer the Destructor.

Maybe: “The MOST LEATHAL President in United States History” would be more descriptive.
His supporters would be happy if NYC was a smoking ruin. They really hate the coasts.

… was just looking to cut the legs out from under the accuracy purists and precisely use Biden’s words:
"This president should step down!”
… they peed all over Biden for saying that Trump called COVID-19 a “hoax” … which Trump has effectively expressed via a variety of descriptive & inflamatory ways … but apparently Biden technically ran outside of the base path on this play - and did not precisely use Trump’s exact wording… just the functional essence!
However - there actually should be a real BULL SHIT alarm on this technicality criticism - because …

Feb. 28, 2020, (yeah - over 6 months ago …)
“Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus,” Trump said. “They have no clue, they can’t even count their votes in Iowa.”
“This is their new hoax,” Trump continued, adding that attacking the White House’s response to the coronavirus had become the Democratic Party’s “single talking point.”
Trump has weaponized the word “hoax” throughout his presidency, using it to belittle and discredit former special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian election interference as well as his impeachment trial. He also has a long history of distrusting experts, most notably his own intelligence community and government scientists.
Did Gerald Ford ACTUALLY SAY “DROP DEAD” ? … NO
Did anybody get all twisted up and say “wait a minute - that is not precisely what he said” - NO … because everybody knew that was his message!
… and EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THAT WAS & IS TRUMP’S MESSAGE ! - and they know it by Trump’s frequent use of the word “HOAX” to denigrate anything or idea that is an obstacle for him.
