his inaction on Trump and Gaza (both 100% self-inflicted). There is absolutely no question about that in my mind. But, worse than GW Bush? Worse than Trump 1? Keep in mind that he's being rated down for *allowing* Trump 2 in anticipation based on what Trump 1 was like.
(I can see how Reagan was a Roschach's test in terms of everyone seeing something different in it, so I can see that his presidency would be rated as a mixed bag. )
They would of course rate Trump higher. He has officially been normalized. Going forward, he will be the arrow that the target is painted around for anyone who wants to be able to retain some name marketability in this new reality.
