I guess the difference is that they aren't the President
Its better this way - easier not to put the president on a pedestal.
Presidents are just flawed individuals temporarily occupying an executive position. We have checks & balances to make certain nothing goes too crazy.
Besides, we just had eight years of a smooth talker who could 'do no wrong' while he burned the country down.
I'm with the guy who says who cares, as long as Trump keeps doing what he's so far doing.
