#3 And just as mind-boggling is the support of Dubya by the Dems, the same gaggle that said "it's Bush's fault".

Dubya is around the bend.

#4 Is George drinking again? Next up is the soft support of Joe Biden ‘I know Joe from way back, he is a good guy and a great American......’

#6 What conservative things did Dubya do? He was a old school liberal and globalist like his dad. It's like Bloomberg in NYC. They couldn't run on the Socialist party ticket so they took the seat on the GOPe ticket. America was presented with a choice of bad and worse. We took bad cause the GOPe had and has nothing else to offer. Trump was never GOPe which is why all the Deep State coup was about. He wasn't going to be a Washington General to the Socialist Globetrotters.

#7 W was always an open border globalist and part of the problems that got us to the horrible state we were in.

#9 That's why Jeb got his ass kicked by Trump in 2016.

#10 Until there are consequences for this behavior, they will simply get more brazen.

It's not just about the "principles" involved, it's about rubbing our noses in shit and saying "You can't do anything about this -- eat it!!!"


Thank China Mitch McConnell, Paul "the Gimp" Ryan, Jeff "J'Recuse!" Sessions, Jimmy "Greasy Fingers" DiStefano, the Chamber of Commerce, the Karens for whom mean tweets are the greatest sin, and yes, even Trump himself for thinking he could do deals with these people.

#11 charger #1, leave Trump out of this, he can only play the cards he was dealt as best as he can.

Bush was a tremendous disappointment from his first deal with Teddy K on education.

#12 I don't primarily blame Trump, but he does bear some responsibility for the circumstances in which he finds himself.

I've heard that he's been thinking about running for Prez since the Eighties.

If this is so, you'd think he would have developed a bigger and deeper cadre of loyalists that he could have relied on when elected.

Or maybe he could have used some of his wealth to get information on potential opponents for leverage.

I get wanting to defend him against all comers, but this can lead to the "if the tsar only knew" fallacy where he's never held accountable by his supporters.

And that can lead to support being taken for granted.

Which is bad for his supporters and dangerous to Trump's own position.

#13 Folks liked W because of the War on Terror but time has proven that most of his decisions were bad ones. He was a mediocre President.
