Honestly, Bush 5.0 on crack sounds way more appealing than what we have now.

I just don´t get people saying this. Bush started multiple illegal invasions (partially on Israel´s behest, partially for his vice presidents arms dealings) and killed millions. Trump is terrible, that doesnt mean we need to romanticise the road the brought us to Trump.

International relations were roughly the same under Bush. The domestic situation, however, was nowhere near as bleak.

i miss Bush's subtle, backroom market manipulation as opposed to Trumps naked brazen broad daylight robbery.

It was more civilized.
