It may not make him more likable, but it definitely won't hurt him. Bush Jr. proved himself to be the most bumbling and dangerous idiot in the office in decades, and the morons re-elected him without a moment's pause.
Yes, but it's hard to believe he would have been re-elected without 9/11 and the two wars we were fighting in 2004. Horrible as it is to say, the terrorists were the best thing that ever happened to that man, politically.
That's why I'm so concerned about what Trump may do on the international stage, whether as a matter of active policy or in reaction to events outside his control. He may be a dangerous clown, but he's one who understands what sells. I don't believe for a moment that the lessons of the 2004 election were lost on him.
