    I recall squirming in embarrassed discomfort listening to Bush try to form a coherent sentence.

      I remember in those days I was watching CNN and there was a split screen, one side was a photo of Bush, the other side was a photo of Saddam. I remember thinking “I honestly don’t know who scares me more.” I had absolutely no idea how bad things could get. I wish we were back to the relative sanity of those days.

      i remember living in redhatistan in 2003. it was halloween. i thought of the thing that would be scariest to my neighbors so i dressed up as an iraq war protestor. most of my neighbors immediately got it and thought it was hilarious. about 15% of them were insanely offended and two or three grown men squared up to fight me until they realized the puny disabled kid had this long board with nails in it holding a small sign. i was not unprepared in any way.

    You claim Trump is dumber than Bush, and yet Trump has made billions while President compared to Bush who only made hundreds of millions.

    Hell, I’m beginning to think Cheney was dumber than Trump, at least on these grounds.

      A lot of people wouldn’t choose billions if it means raping kids and starting wars and etc etc that he regularly does

      I would argue he’s emotionally dumb, morally dumb, intellectually dumb. He’s not dumb at grifting? I guess that’s what people like?

      The rumor i heard is he might not have wanted to have an audio clip of himself saying “shame on me” that could have been used in any other context. But yeah he made himself look like an absolute twat that way. Not the best fast thinker.

    I know this is a meme so I shouldn’t look for historic accuracy here but a the vast majority of the US, and many of our allies, were on board for an invasion of the Middle East (Afghanistan) in 2001 after 9/11. It was the invasion of Iraq in 2003 that turned many people off.

    there is in fact a dumber man

    Should we ask Clinton what the meaning of ‘is’ is in this sentence? There is not just a dumber man. There was a process, there were debates, there was an election. The problem is not Trump.

    This is a hindsight thing. He was just elected. Unlike Trump, we didn’t learn until 2 or 3 years into the war that GWB was an absolute moron. In 2001, everyone got behind him and the military. And that includes just about anyone in this thread who was alive at the time, and likely their entire nation, and that’s a demonstrable fact.

      This is horseshit. Plenty of us knew it before he was elected. It was fucking obvious. I was a teenager in 2000, and I was stunned and appalled that we’d elected such a moron. Just because a large proportion of the country got caught up in post-9/11 jingoistic mania doesn’t mean it wasn’t clear from the start what a dipshit he was.

      Basically his professor called him the dumbest person he ever taught and that the orange child rapist thought he already knew everything.
      The fat cunt tells everyone that he graduated first of his class yet his name isn’t on the Dean’s list of 1968, and anyone who does exceptionally well would be on that list.
      Also none of the class of 68 particularly remember him.
      In short the kiddie fiddler was seen as a dumb prick, and continuously lies about being clever.

      I’d say he’s at least dumb in the sense that his age is getting to him. If you hate yourself go back and listen to him from 2015 when he was running and listen to anything now. He should be in a nursing home and we’ve got him running the country.

      I think he’s dumb. Dumb as in bereft of self-criticism, reflection, and wisdom; dumb as only the rich who surround themselves with sycophants can be.

      He’s always been the exact same clown he is today
