If he had, we'd have the same detractors on the right about Bush not "acting Presidential."

No. There is a distinction between 'fighting back' and 'boorish ass'.

Oh I agree... But the flack was there all the same.

Bush knew what kind of buzzsaw he was facing if he fought back, with people gathering on the right to attack him if he did (as they do with Donald Trump today).  He chose, to his everlasting shame, to fold up his tent and go home for the last few years of his Presidency.

Naw. The Right turned on him because he called us 'Nativists' with disgust on his face, and the bailout sealed the deal. He was praised as a fighter prior to that... Standing on the rubble of the Trade Center with a bullhorn in his hand.

He deserved to fold up his tent in shame. It wasn't the left that tore him down. It was the Right that let them. Deservedly so. Dixie Chicks redux.

The "current fight" has been going on since 2015.  :shrug:

And that's what we'd get if "Tump" folds up his tent.  Bush may have deserved it, but we did not!

Yep. Nothing but a poo-throwing extravaganza. I don't see why y'all think it so great. Ya think you're winning, but really you're just getting covered in liberal sh*t.  **nononono*

Makes zero sense to me.

The problem is, you're getting it anyway. And applauding.

I remember 2016 well.  Who can forget?  Donald Trump was #16 out of 17 for my choice for President back in those Primaries.  Only Kasich was worse in my view.  In 2020, the choices are different, and the President has a record that appeals to most Republicans, whether one thinks it's all Commie-light or not.

I'm sorry, I missed the applauding part.  You must have me confused with somebody else.

I am. Because the claim that we're getting the same as we'da gotten with Bush is just plain false.

You are getting the same. At least where it matters. Turtle and Graham are not Conservatives, and they are not your friends.

I realize most republican congressmen are in the same bucket as the rats, But today we're getting border & inland enforcement including rulings that should stand indefinitely, we're getting decent judges, we're getting better trade deals than we would've with Bush, Clinton, or any other 2016 candidate save maybe Cruz.

Same for me.  Donald Trump the candidate confounded me like no other.  After the first debate, I remember the otherwise brilliant and insightful Charles Krauthammer remarking it was the end of Trump experiment.  Instead, he rose in the polls.  The whole run-up to his nomination was so un-Presidential, so unstatesman-like, it truly baffled me.  The general campaign was more of the same and it tested me.  The toxic debates between pro and never made it worse.  For me, at least.

But, given the alternative(s), I voted for him.  I did.

He continues to drive me nuts with his style, his rhetoric, and his total lack of a filter.  Despite that, it is working and it is driving my political opposites crazy.  I will let the Almighty judge whether he is worthy or not.  Just as He will for any of us.  But in the meantime...

I will vote for President Trump again.

Nah. I don't think that's true. All that he has done is pretty well gone with him. The same thing he did to Obama, someone will do to him.

Remains to be seen, but I doubt it. McConnell would not be jamming them through without his own agenda being served.

Go look up the difference between NAFTA and USMCA and come back to argue the point.

I'm familiar with your arguments. I simply disagree.

And we all do so agreeably, generally.  That's the beauty of TBR!  I may not agree with @roamer_1 about some things, but I think we're both welcome to have adult beverages on each others' porches.
