      Well, by comparison to the current administration. I would much rather have the shrub back.

        Bush created ICE (plus the surveillance state apparatus we’re stuck with today), invaded Iraq, had a stupid border fence, and had surging oil prices towards the end of his term along with the greatest financial crisis since the great depression. Trump is merely following the same script, financial crisis pending.

    Because the right is very good at propoganda and the democratic party often doesn’t bother. Another example is how the conservatives are waaayy ahead of the liberals as far as Internet presence goes, they’ve been bankrolling people like Joe Rogan and Theo Von for more than a decade.

    Somewhat related, I haven’t seen “I did that” stickers at gas station pumps for the current administration either…

    They took the “I did this” sticker without all the, “You people are stupid! The president doesn’t control gas prices!” rage.
