I don't think misdeeds of prior presidents excuse current misdeeds, but knowing about them provides perspective. Obama's encouraging an invasion with amnesties for large classes of illegal aliens, done by fiat, are worse than anything Trump has done.

The left encourages short memories. Makes it easier to bamboozle their core sonstituencies.

Trump is a mild version of Andrew Jackson. Jackson did, in fact, shoot people and his voters did not care. I don’t mean shoot people in war, but gun them down in duels. Upon his inauguration, his supporters trashed the White House in a drunken brawl. Trump supporters merely enjoyed the tears of Hillary supporters.

You forgot, compared to Obama who isn’t even eligible to be POTUS /s

After WWII, a lot of Germans were told about the Jewish holocaust and the concentration camps that the German government had run. Many Germans claimed to be shocked. “We were never told!” they said.

At some point, Americans are going to find out that President Trump is a loyal, honest, law-abiding president who has treated people fairly and made America great again. Many Americans will claim to be shocked. “We were never told!” they will say.

I would blame Congress for the Alien and Sedition Acts and for the Fugitive Slave Act. Of course Adams and Fillmore went along with these acts but they did not initiate them.

Carter, 0bama then you had wimpy Bush.

I’m trying to picture Twitter in LBJ’s time. He’d have a field day posting pics of surgery scars and his yanking on beagle ears. (and he would do it, too, believe me!).

Those aren’t misdeeds. Each President is a unique person. Getting all in a tithed because you don’t like some one else’s behavior is the work best left to pharisees and Sadducees

Think Trump is ‘outrageous?’

No. I think he is competent, shrewd, and hard working.

[doorgunner69]

Liberals and their precious PC are what causes so much of their butthurt, and the media’s faux outrage.

Too many soy boyz and snowflakes that take offense at anything not in line with their estrogen overloaded brains.

“Think Trump is ‘outrageous?’...”

No

Lincoln was the worse President, by orders of magnitude.

[faucetman]

“He’s nothing compared to these past presidents”

NO, Past presidents are nothing compared to Trump. (modern era)

[central_va]

I wish Trump would hold a massive open White House Party like Pres. Jackson did back in the day.

The only thing unprecedented is the hate and violence from the left.

[DeweyCA]

Woodrow Wilson and his thugs silencing his opposition. FDR interning 120,000 Japanese-Americans. LBJ’s crude remarks on n...rs, his crude sexual behavior, and using the CIA to spy on Barry Goldwater. JFK having his brother as Attorney General. Obama going after the NYT’s James Risen and FNC’s James Rosen. All of these in the article are examples of Dem presidents doing much worse than Trump. And the article doesn’t mention about policy decisions where Obama just flouted the Law, like with DACA and the “Dreamers” or how Obama lied about ObamaCare and Benghazi.

[wardaddy]

Virtually any presidency you examine is guilty of far worse acts than whatever you think is the worst thing Trump has ever done, from John Adams’ Alien and Sedition Acts, a breathtaking offense against freedom that was meant to punish political resistance, to Millard Fillmore’s Fugitive Slave Act, which made it so the evil tentacles of the South’s slavery regime could reach up North and pluck back people who had successfully made it to freedom. Even Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus and did nothing to stop his troops from shutting down newspapers they didn’t like.

Kyl Smith is still mighty woke

[wardaddy]

Btw

NRO WRITER AND NEVERTRUMPER WHO I GUESS HAS EATEN HIS CROW

no wonder this article is a bit nauseating
