The Left has the Roman version of declaring rulers gods. In this case, if the GOP dead politician is useful in bashing Trump they declare the person a political angel who exemplified all that was right with Pre-Trump GOP politician. They count on the amnesia and ignorance of the American people to forget about how they threw out every insult against these men when they were standing in the way. Clinton and company stated Bush the Elder was an out of touch old white dude who did not even know how a check out laser scanner worked. The MSM ignores how the Democratic Congress stabbed Bush the Elder in the back when he compromised on tax cuts never following through with their side of the deal. It was the Democratic dirty dealing with a fundamentally decent person that opened the way for Trump. When you call every GOP politician a racist and Nazi well by the time Trump comes along nobody cares what the MSM and Democrats say.

Bush becomes a yardstick

Give a man an inch, and he thinks he's a ruler.

So if Trump writes a book and calls the next GOP president a blowhard, he’ll measure up to W and his dad?
