My favorite all time GW moments, “It looks like a hurricane came through there”, and when he pulls on the door you need to push, the dumbfounded look on his face.
It’s crazy to think how bad he was and he was great compared to tRump.
I remember reading an article (must have been during the Obama years) saying that for the GOP to get its act together they had to recognize what a trainwreck Bush Junior was. Yeah…
I mean McCain and Romney both did fairly well with their base. What the Rs realized and Ds have yet to realize is that pandering to the center doesn’t help. You have to go farther right(R-facisn) or left(D-socialism) to get people actually wanting to vote for you.
I think they did realize it. They also realized they’re getting old and the younger generations aren’t buying into the “trickle down” bullshit because they can’t buy a house if they wanted to. Gone are the days of the man working at a factory and supporting a family with a house and two new cars. I think the current GOP is going for broke, they know if they don’t win now, they are absolutely fucked. The more boomers die off, the more boomers go into nursing homes, the more fucked it all gets. The planet is in deep shit, they know it, they don’t care because they’ll be long gone before it effects them. Younger people and even older are beginning to realize that religion is a sham, and that too hurts the GOP. This is pretty much it for them with what they’ve been working on since Reagan. My hope is the brainwashed suckers snap out of it and we can actually get some republicans in office that will work with the democrats and start working on making lives better for everyone, not just the rich as fuck.
I thought the laughing stared with George W.
It probably started with Reagan, our first actor-turned-president.
Meanwhile another actor-turned-president successfully not looses war. They are not same.

Yep and then they realized that the voting bloc they had assembled was in no way interested in any kind of redemption for the GOP or the Bush years.

The Chicago school of economics runs deep.
