Winning the election isn't like winning a super bowl or a prizefight. In politics, you're judged as a winner or loser based on what you do AFTER the election.

GWB served two terms as POTUS. His presidency is widely viewed as a massive failure, arguably the worst in history...and Trump is on a trajectory to do even worse. He has already proven to be the least fit person ever to hold the job as CiC.
