    The funny thing is that while Trump got constant media attention for personally saying and doing a lot of inappropriate things that past Republican presidents wouldn’t have, he was actually a fairly normal Republican president in terms of the federal government’s major policies during his term. I suppose he wasn’t actually very interested in the unglamorous business of government and left it to other, less unconventional members of his party.

      This isn’t true in the slightest. Trump absolutely destroyed federal government policies. What presidency were you watching? Bush didn’t do anything even close to this much damage to the federal government. Not since Reagan. And that’s honestly being generous to Reagan, because he did a lot of federal government damage.
