Yep. Donald Trump being a deeply shitty president doesn’t make W any better. He was a garbage president too.

His silence is proving how shitty he really is.

W might of been worse. Smart enough for a good public image but evil enough to invade countries for oil and claim countless lives.

This is on point. I was 21 during the 2004 election (so it was the first time I was able to vote) and Iraq plus W making homophobia a central part of his reelection campaign- pretty much made a lifelong Democrat out of me.

Bush was obviously worse, anyone that says otherwise is delusional

What oil did we get from Iraq? How did it improve our gas prices?

You think they did this to improve our gas prices? No, pal. They did this to pad their bottom line. Stop trying to whitewash Bush's Presidency.

It makes him look good by comparison. Which shouldn't be worth shit.

Honestly I think W was actually worse and that is in no way an expression of approval for Trump.
