      I mean best people who are also politicians. Arguably Trump is the best politician, because despite openly being an absolute trainwreck of a human being he somehow has had power twice.

        Yeah, “best politician” isn’t really a compliment. The best ones are good liars who commit egregious acts while retaining a base that still worships them. Trump is formidable in that respect, though I think Obama is better. Obama did a lot of shitty things and is still widely adored, whereas most of the population will readily admit Trump is a piece of shit.
