I've never been a fan of Trump, and I've never made that a mystery. I was not a fan of either Bush either, but I respected them as "doing what they thought was best for the country". Same with Reagan, Carter, Clinton and Obama.

What really hit me as reality, was how out of step Trump is. I think it was a combo of reading an opinion piece based on the following picture, and then seeing the 60-minutes interview.



Simply put, this guy is not for America, he's for himself.



But to the point, what REALLY HIT HOME was the thought that he will NEVER EVER pose for a picture like this. Even if he's still free to walk the streets, I doubt he's got enough balls to stand next to other living POTUS's who have actually done their job, and put country first. His ego couldn't handle that. I do wonder if other living POTUS's would be willing to stand next to him. It's a tough call, because it's a bad choice either way.

I didn't do a very good job of writing out my thoughts today, but I guess it jut hit me when I saw that picture, how much of a contrast Trump is to our other living Presidents. They all had their successes and failures, but he is the first one who really lacks ANY moral compass, any love of country, and any thread of decency or ethics.

Clinton: Cheated on his wife
Bush Jr.: Started a fake war
Carter: Just an inneffective POTUS
Reagan: Basically created Al Queda and destroyed the middle class

All of them were still honorable in their service to country. Trump will never have a place in that portrait.

(Yes, I realize that Reagan is not pictured, not alive, and that I did not comment on Bush Sr. or Obama. The points stands, at least for some.)

Obama is known for sucking up to everyone on the world stage, never seeking to improve trade deals, and adding more business regulations than any President in history.
In other words, Obama is the polar opposite to Trump.
Obama put America LAST.
Trump would never want to be associated with Obama.

Oh please, Trump is way better than all of those pictured combined. You do realize that ALL the problems in this country and many parts of the world were caused by the policies of those in that picture right?

Trump produces result those in the photo wanted to produce but couldn't.
Trumps stand alone as a testament to what the others could have been but failed to be.

They are all war criminals, something you should remember.

Besides that it’s your opinion.

Why would President Trump want to be pictured with a group of has beens who have banded together to betray him? You must really think he is ignorant.

Contrary, he is very astute and privy to information that you have no clue about and if you did you'd likely deny it.
