…except the only reason you had a Trump presidency was because there was a Bush presidency. Did everyone forget how we got from there to here? Let’s see:
Bush steals the election from Gore with the help of the SC -> 9/11 happens, giving the Bush admin the excuses they need to enact their ghoulish neocon desires for the country and the planet, leading to the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq abroad, and bolstering the housing market at home -> the invasions turn into immense quagmires and the housing bubble implodes, leading to the GFC -> Obama wins a landslide victory because he promises to not make those same mistakes -> Obama fumbles with his promises and the Snowden leaks damage Obama’s legitimacy -> Democrats choose Clinton to be Obama’s successor, but due to her issues and people sick of Democrat fuckups, Trump becomes president.
If Gore had won in 2000, and assuming 9/11 still happened (if you’re one of those people who thinks the CIA wasn’t involved in that), it’s likely that people’s knowledge of Trump would be “that guy from the Apprentice?” because we’d still be a decade off from someone like him running.
I’d also be remiss to add that Bush is the reason that climate change policies were put on the back burner, so if you’re a Thunberg type, you should be pretty angry at Bush for squandering nearly a decade of time by not trying to cut emissions.
