Unprecedented

[poliphilo]

 I believe we've had US presidents quite as wicked as the present one- perhaps wickeder- but we've never had one who was anything like as disreputable. Others lied but never this transparently, others waged war and overthrew foreign governments but generally either secretly or with plausible pretexts, others were quite as amoral but managed to keep their financial and sexual misbehaviour under wraps. No earlier president threw his weight around like a third world dictator. No earlier president was quite as stupid.....

And no earlier president did anything like as much damage to his country's image in the world. All the others either built or sustained the American Empire. This one has destroyed it.
