Have Trump act like Biden did.
George W. Bush was a Republican president and didn't get anything like the flak that Trump does. He also didn't behave like Trump does.
Oh, man...remember when GW was the dumbest president, ever? Oh, if we only knew what was yet to come. Trump makes him look like a Rhodes scholar.
He did lie a lot and rip up quite a bit of international relations things though
But he rolls 20's when he has to dodge a shoe
Oh, man. I remember that. I hated shrub but I had to tip my hat then. That was genuinely impressive. I felt the same way when Wendy Deng protected Rupert from the pie.
And when he went to throw the first pitch during the world series after 9/11. At Yankees stadium he was told he would be boo'd of the field if he threw from the front of the pitch like most celebrities do, and then threw a pitch better than near any I've seen since. Looking at you 50 cent.
Bush was a cheerleader I believe, he knew how to shrug off people laughing at him.
Freedom fries
It's sad that I want W back. It would still be a massive upgrade, though
When I see old GWB footage I see a US president, trying to do what he believes is best for the nation, I disagree with him on plenty of stuff, but I don't question his commitment.
When I see current Trump footage, I don't see a president, I see either toddler throwing his toys (the US, the US citizens, and the federal government) at the wall and stomping on them, or a stupid spiteful man who is trying desperately to destroy any kind of liberty outside of the weird US conservative sphere.
Can we not whitewash the atrocities that WBush put on this nation? Is Trump worse? yes. But Bush paved the way for the shit that he's doing.
He lied is into multiple 2-decades long wars that cost us trillions of dollars could have helped everyone in the US have a better life, 10s of thousands of lives lost. He vastly expanded the domestic surveillance apparatus that is plaguing us now. He ushered in the worst economic collapse in a century, them used that crisis to funnel more money to the rich who caused it.
Oh, I absolutely agree with you, GWB was not a good man, but he knew how to act presidential, you didn't have to be completely embarrassed when you saw him on TV.
