It really does just show how insulated they are from American imperialism and the death and sheer misery it rains down on the rest of the world.

Trump sucked ass too, but to say he’s worse than a man who started unjust wars that killed millions because he put out mean tweets is just fucking disgusting.

Libs suck for this and yes this is still their fault for thinking this way but blame also lies with the media. They chose to reframe the question. The question stops involving the actions of Bush The President and re-centers to Bush The Man. It’s the new narrative. Oh but he paints now. Oh he gave Michelle a tootsie roll, or he said Trump was bad. They were so willing to believe this could motivate Republicans to disown Trump that they latched onto it harder than those Republicans. They rehabilitated a foe for propaganda purposes. Very “we go high” shit when you look at it that way, right? The political forebears of these people are also the ones that allowed Nixon to resign because it would “look bad” or be a “stain” of some kind if they prosecuted him. They are so naive and it gets people killed so yeah it is infuriating.

As for Bush: People don’t just get Thanos snapped out of existence. When they die they leave holes in the lives of everyone that knew them. If we only killed 500,000 Iraqis with our foreign policy, IF only that number, we are still talking of millions and even tens of millions of victims who had to live through grief and carry on.

My grandmother remembers her childhood during the Great Depression, even more clearly now as her short term memory is fading as she nears the end of her life. I can’t imagine what the USA foreign policy did to the people of Iraq, it is so vast I cannot comprehend it.

No, the half million dead Iraqi children was before Bu$hitler. That was Madeline Albright, during Clinton’s term. Here’s her confession of genocide recorded on video - she says it was worth it.

A living monster. Blood dripping from her fangs, real-life monster.

Oh, and Bill Clinton is a rapist.
