It’s really unnerving for me seeing old clips and pics of W in contrast to Trump. Don’t get me wrong W doesn’t deserve an ounce of forgiveness or leniency in perception of him. And his likability was what made him so dangerous.
But he also just feels like an actual human being, someone who enjoys things and has interests outside of using others for his own aggrandizement. Trump even when he’s being goofy is just fucking cruel and selfish about everything to everyone that isn’t kissing his ass.
The bar is below the floor
Can someone find W in the Epstein files please so I can be equally disgusted with both again.
What made W dangerous, isn’t actually so much him, himself. But, how much leverage others got through him and his background as the ideal republican model of the time, being white, christian and straight so maybe a little himself. Trump is merely dangerous because he’s throwing everyone in a loop, he’s too unpredictable. But Trump is one person, who can be managed and mitigated as evidenced by what Congress has done against him and even people he helped get appointed to in Supreme Court seats.
W was dangerous because, his entire administration was competent and worked with him in a competent manner. That is when Republicans are dangerous the most, is when they’re all collectively organized.
Trump’s admin is about as dangerous collectively as well, but his instability is what is undoing their hold. W might’ve been an idiot, but he was an idiot that somehow kept things in his party under control until late into his second term after the recession when Republicans needed a scapegoat because they all scapegoat everybody.
Really depends. The title says it’s by how much it looks like they have a soul behind them eyes. W looks like he’s got one. And that’s what made him as dangerous as he was. “I wanna have a beer with the man!”
Go have a fucking beer with him, then, but don’t give him access to the fucking oval Office!
You are correct that I wanted this ranking to be independent of any actual knowledge and instead solely off of surface level reading of their appearance
In that case, I think you did a good job. Though I’d probably have place Ike higher. He looks like he has a soul to me. A weird one. Like a soul that buys used undies from vending machines lol
I would put George W Bush down in F as well.

Not that I care a lot, but putting GW above HW is a wild take. They both sucked, but only one of them ate paste and called his teacher “mom.”

Bush senior wasn’t that bad.
