If in 2006, Bush had exhibited Trump's leadership qualities, then he could have gotten the Social Security Privatization bill passed which would have resulted in GOP control of everything for the next quarter century. And if Trump had possessed Bush's team-building qualities, he wouldn't have found himself betrayed by so many of those serving under him.
No one is perfect, neither Bush nor Trump. But they both did a good job with what they had. Both were far better than Clinton, Obama, or whoever is controlling the white house now.
This is because there is a profound difference between the two men. George W. Bush to his core is a liar; Donald J. Trump is not.Donald J. Trump fights for what he says he will do; George W. Bush fights to hide his true intentions.If George W. Bush truly understood humility, he would know he is not fit to scrape the mud off the bottom of Donald J. Trump's boots.
Dumbya pulled the wool over our eyes.
The main reason I now dislike W as he concentrates on dissing only Republicans, never Democrats.
I just don't wear blinkers.
@SighlassROFLMAO!BTW,I believe they are called "blinders".
Again, what was the lie?
Bush and Trumpy are the cause of our doom, not the democrats slick willy, Obama, Biden?[...]Blame shift to give the perps (democrats) a pass? In what parallel universe?
@catfish1957 I'm curious about what it is that makes you think you are wrong?
For example..."Compassionate Conservatism" was born out of his personal experience in his family with the Hispanic culture.
The term compassionate conservative makes me puke. Just like that kinder gentler shit his pop would say. The Bushies turned hardline Goldwater / Reagan conservatives into the whimp bleep capitulating GOP(e) pukes that they are today. Overall, he and his dad's tenure were a big NEGATIVE, not only for the country, but for the GOP. Hopefully we have seen the last of them on the national stage.
"Compassionate Conservatism" is neither.
I answered you @Hoodat Reread my post to you. It's plain as day.
Bush and Trumpy are the cause of our doom, not the democrats slick willy, Obama, Biden?Seriously, are illegal substances being passed around here? The hate, despise, annihilate/destroy America crowd is politically owned by Soros's dogs, the democrat party (and some here). Blame shift to give the perps (democrats) a pass? In what parallel universe? The clowns just keep clowning around! Comediennes roam about.
None of them are clean...all bear a piece of the blame for where we are right now.
The voters have a lot to do with it, too.
I will disagree on that. And it's a mighty low bar. If that's the best we can do, we are done for. Though we are probably done for anyhoo at this point, thanks largely to Boosh and Tumpy.
Yes, it is a low bar. And yes, we are done for. I just get sick of hearing the 2016 Republicans mouthing off the same dishonist Democrat rhetoric we heard while Bush was in office. Bush definitely made his share of mistakes (as did Trump). So people should call them out on that instead of parroting lies about the Iraq War costing several trillion dollars and such.The hallmark of his Presidency would have been Social Security privatization. But he couldn't even get his own party fully on board.
It was an accident and she was a teenager What's comical is watching people here attack GWB with the same talking points the left used during his tenure
