I think people hated Bush even worse than Trump and he was still re-elected, which as why I'm not as optimistic as others on this forum.
What's with the rehab of W. Bush's image???

i think about this all the timeThis just shyt on my day.
bush was more popular with moderates at the time of his re-election, at that point if i remember correctly it was really just liberals and left who hated him like that. i was also like eight years old in the most liberal city in bush’s home state at the time where everyone either loved or despised him so take what i say with a grain of saltI think people hated Bush even worse than Trump and he was still re-elected, which as why I'm not as optimistic as others on this forum.
Yep. Not even 10 years ago people were still calling him dumb, incompetent, a lame duck etc.
Although Trump's presidency was so much of a train wreck and he's such a polarizing figure that I don't know how that would be remotely possible, eventhough atleast 1/3rd of the US still loves him lol.

I can picture in my head peoples initial response to Trump when he announced running. They wanted to say they liked him out loud, but couldn’t until he picked off every mainstream republican candidate one by one.
Instead of being introspective about why a caricature antithetical to all values they pretended to uphold was disrupting their party they sold him the dusty, brass plated, chandelier they called their soul. Wholesale

Nothing stopped these garbage people from creating a new identity based around someone they have nothing in common with.
Watching the news coverage of Colin Powell made me think of this thread. You know the polish has already been put on Bush and his administration before this day but a whole lot "real leadership is Colin Powell admitting he was wrong"
that's all it takes huh
He described Iraq as a blot on his resume, as if Iraq was a whole lot of nothing, and the line has been treated as fact

he must have some sleepless nights thinking about his scumbaggery if he's letting out freudian slips like that.
Or remembering how he was forced into it by dikky C
That's the Freudian slip of the century.

Considering his daddy issues with Iraq (Saddam was implicated in an assassination attempt on H.W.), I'm convinced that going into Iraq was just as much on W until proven otherwise.
