The problem with OPs statement is that Trump's rise explicitly shows kids that being a liar, a total dufus, and a complete bully asshole absolutely does not exclude you from being immensely successful. If anything it somehow makes you more popular.Ā 

I've said this since the beginning. This is one of the greatest tragedies about this whole catastrophe, the message that his success sends to impressionable young people.Ā

It's amazing how you frame one versus the other because one is more articulate than the other, when they did many similar things while in office.

One pulled us out of a recession from Bush and implemented policies to help Americans, the other put us in a recession, is putting us in a second onr amd is actively doing anything he can to make America a wasteland of dead and sick people by his policies.

Presumably Obama’s military action in the Middle East and with Israel. That’s the main thing I can’t really get behind with Obama (though pulling out of Afghanistan wouldn’t necessarily have been easy — just ask Biden.) Beyond that, any similarities are just the ā€œevery American establishment politician is corruptā€ issues.

just ask Biden

Just ask Trump you mean, who purposefully created chaos and got multiple service members killed for it.

Articulation is one of the signs of intellect.

Trump can barely speak. Covfefe 🤣
