Only eight years after Bush destroyed the economy, this country was stupid enough to elect another Republican to do it again.
The people have been itching for another recession. It had been 8 years after all.

No, he was not. The economy was already on the upswing for 8 years. What trump did with his tax cuts is give the stock market a temporary uptick, because of stock buybacks, but it also created a huge bubble, which is typical every time this happens under a GOP president. The fact that we're in a recession right now should not surprise anyone. And as usual we'll need a democratic president to get us out.

Its what happens every time an imbecile GOP president takes office. They always seem to get dumber and dumber. First, Reagan, then Bush, and now Trump, the clown in chief.

"Trump" gave us the worst economic crash? I hate to break it to you but this was a "Black Swan" event. Would have happened regardless of who was in power.....nut then you know that!
So, I think the 2nd Iraq invasion was easily - nothing else even comes close - the biggest foreign policy mistake in American history. But I thnk Bush got bad advice from Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wolfowicz.
And that said, I don't think that Bush was intrinsically a bad guy or anything. He generally seemed like a person with a good and open heart, and yes, I think that's important in a President. I would take GW Bush over the present occupant of the White House in a nanosecond. To me, Bush would be an upgrade in every sense imaginable.
The disaster in Iraq and Afghanistan where millions of locals and Americans killed and wounded and going on for 20+ years is solely due to him. He is a war criminal and should be behind bars for the misery he caused.
Compared to him I will gladly take Bill Clinton, Obama and Trump any day.
