i've done this before.

if you rank presidents since johnson, trump comes out somewhere in the middle of the pack. he hasn't been as aggressively neo-liberal, he hasn't started any wars and he's done quite a bit to reduce the militarism of american hegemony. maybe that's a catastrophe if you're like richard perle or something, but his rejection of the neo-con agenda is actually quite refreshing to those that have put ending neo-conservatism at the top of the activist agenda.

there's a huge trade-off with climate change...i wish he was better...i wish he'd pull a nixon on that....

...but, you have to take those trade-offs.

and, biden will cave in to exxon on day one, anyways.
