It just is so frustrating to me how much our country, and the world, has suffered in the past 22 years because of false equivalence.
“Gore really isn’t that different than Bush.” Result: a president who is asleep at the switch ignoring intel until 9/11 happens; then invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan, destabilizing the entire region; thousands dead after ignoring the incoming Katrina disaster; economy wrecked through poor economic regulation including ignoring credit default swaps; and two of these conservative SCOTUS nominees.
“Hillary isn’t that different than Trump.” Results: everything we hopefully haven’t forgotten yet, and another 3 of these SCOTUS nominees.
If we don’t remember how we got here, we are very VERY likely to get here again just a few years from now.
