In terms of serious felonies committed by the person sitting in the Oval Office, Donald Trump is similar to Richard Nixon, which puts the 2 of them in very rare company regarding the criminality of a US President.
That said, Trump and Nixon are/were essentially no better and no worse than any other President before them or since ...... all of the decisions that each and every United States President has made throughout history are the product of a much larger structure which promotes capitalism, demonizes socialism, and is completely in bed with
THE TRUE OWNERS of this country ...... the multi-billionaires, the big businesses, the oil companies, etc.
As the late, great George Carlin pointed out, the politicians are there just to give you the illusion that you have some control over what happens when you pull a lever at the voting booth every 4 years ...... you don't have ANY control over any of the important decisions regarding what goes down in our society, as it matters not one bit whether a liberal Democrat is sitting in the Oval Office or a conservative Republican. You may as well be pulling your own dick as pulling that voting lever every 4 years, because the meaning of the 2 acts are essentially the same.
