>> I for one do not think a trump presidency was a worthwhile trade for sending a vague signal to the democrats that they should "course correct".
>In the last 4 years, I've heard the following sentiment often: "I don't like the guy and his rhetoric, but at least Trump has caused fewer deaths in international conflicts than Obama did"
That sentiment doesn't really say anything about whether it was a worthwhile trade or not. Kind of like a restaurant review that says "the food was shit and the service times were slow, but at least the waiters were nice" doesn't really mean that the restaurant is good overall, or whether they would choose the restaurant next time over a competitor.
