Just watched the Boy Boy video on George Bush’s Masterclass, and they made me think about which U.S. President was actually worse.
Bush was bad. But Trump was dangerous.
Like, if Bush were somehow to be elected again I wouldn’t be alarmed, I’d be annoyed.
Dangerous to who though?
To the peaceful transfer of power, for one.
Bush was literally put in through a coup
Now the U.S. Supreme Court has spoken. Let there be no doubt, while I strongly disagree with the court’s decision, I accept it. I accept the finality of this outcome, which will be ratified next Monday in the Electoral College. And tonight, for the sake of our unity as a people and the strength of our democracy, I offer my concession.
Al Gore, Dec. 13, 2000
“For the sake of democracy I concede to the judicial coup”
Trump couldn’t even manage that.
Yeah, much less competent fascist than Bush
