See, and from my perspective I knew immediately that Trump had the potential to eclipse the ever-loving shit out of GWB. My blind spot was forgetting that not everyone else was acquainted with Trump going back to Spy Magazine.

The thing about GWB is he was a front for a bunch of soulless back-room neocons. The thing about Trump is he was a front for a bunch of soulless back-room foreign oligarchs, and even they couldn't keep him under control.
