It’s the same as the “all politicians are the same” moan.
No, they’re not. It’s the crooked ones that want you to believe that they’re all the same, because that’s what keeps the crooked ones from being voted out.
I certainly hope that the fact that the current president isn’t acting simultanously like a toddler and a cult leader, but acting with decorum and attempting to negotiate with the other party to get what he wants instead of berating, yelling, and and inciting mobs on social media, hopefully that convinced enough people to think "oh shit maybe I should actually pay atrention to politics - wouldn’t want that shit happening again
