What's up with Trump lovers comparing him to Reagan?

[Rev. Rye]

They need someone (preferably American) to compare him to without totally embarrassing themselves.

• Nixon was a crook who only got out of doing time because his Veep pardoned him as soon as possible.
  
• Bush I was kind of bland.
  
• Bush II turned out to be a total embarrassment who will most likely spend most of the rest of his life hoping The Hague doesn't get the balls to obtain a warrant for his arrest.
  
• Let's be totally honest, does anyone remember ANYTHING about Gerald Ford, what he was like, and what his policies are besides damage control for Nixon's antics?
  
• Eisenhower was practically a liberal.
  
• They don't remember anyone before him, except Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and maybe Ulysses Grant (almost certainly more as the general who saved the Union than his washout of a presidency).
  

Who else is there, especially in America? I suppose you could compare him to Hitler or his good buddy Putin, South Africa's rapist HIV-denying president Jacob Zuma, or Italy's damn-near-president-for-life Silvio Berlusconi, but I'm fairly certain his supporters wouldn't bring Trump up in the same breath as those jackasses.

Then again, this is a man who clearly doesn't give a crap about morality whose supporters make up facts of their own. Do you really think accuracy in analogies matters to them?
