I'd prefer to cut both of their heads off.

They're both different kinds of incompetent evil that you play a role in furthering by choosing the "better" incompetent evil.

If my choice was four more years of Trump or four more years of Bush Jr., I'd take my chances with Trump.
I see it as the exact opposite. Bush was incompetent. Trump is actively trying to undermine the system every chance he gets.

What would Bush have done that Trump won't that makes him so much worse?

Honestly, I don't know what Trump would or wouldn't do. I do know what he has done up to this point and what Bush Jr. has done.

Yes cause our current method of electing sociopaths is far more humane.

I mean Iraq was a disaster but it's pretty unlikely Bush would start another war after that. And it's also pretty likely that if Trump were prez when 9/11 happened he would've handled it similarly or even worse.

Bush Jr has a lot more blood on his hands. I commend you for saying it.
