Well I was trying to keep it simple for you Mashie, you know, you have problems spotting evidence and facts, I had to give you something to laugh about, you know, like most liberals do every single time we see one of your nonsensical argumentation go off the rails as usual.

And I while I made (in my sleep deprived moment) a small writing error, it still does not change the fact that you lost that debate because as usual your whole post belonged in the

By page three I am done reading. To the OP, though the guy made some truly awful decisions, like his father, and Reagan, even Nixon before, but they all did have a basic sense of social and civil duty, a sense of moral personal decency and they went into the office to do good, This video is unusual because George has managed to say almost nothing publicly that might be taken as having even a remote political agenda. He has been stubbornly silent since he left office. He wanted to do good on this issue, and it shows. This video is as pitch perfect, as Trump has been consistently tone deaf. Its more presidential than anything I have seen in a long long time.

I have to give this man his due here.

As I said, the left despised Bush when he was in office. Now that they perceive him as useful in attacking Trump, they afford him civility. The important thing to remember is Marxists don't love anybody. They are incapable of love. They only pretend to like folks who are useful for advancing their cause. Ask any Democrat who crosses them. Bernard Goldberg, Sharyl Atkisson, Linda Tripp, Bill Cosby, Don Imus. Mel Gibson.

Another debate Mashie loses I see. All you conservatives constantly bellyache about the "left's" obsession with rights for minorities and LGBTQ people and now suddenly we don't care about any of those things. Really, make up your mind there.

But as it is you, we know you live somewhere in a "fact free environment" so it is not really that remarkable that you make another claim that even conservatives know is utter nonsense. I am going to have to look for a new fail pail because the one I had, even with the dozens of times I have needed to empty it, just isn't large enough to contain all of your nonsense.

LMAO if you think Trump works for any group. The guy is solely in this for the American people.

Yup, we were critical of Bush, and we are still critical of his government. But he at least has some redeeming qualities. You know, like being a normal person.

And we don't need Bush to attack Trump, that Orange Ogre gives us all the ammo the democrats need by way of his own mouth and his pathetic government during the last few years.

And Mel Gibson a democrat? :lamo

You have said some stupid things in your past but this one is even too ridiculous for you. Mel Gibson a democrat? In what universe would that be, the reverse universe? The man is so hardcore conservative catholic that he has built his own church because he thinks English services are way too modern, he likes his catholicism in Latin. He is just about as conservative as is humanly possible and you claim he is a democrat who ran afoul of the marxists. :lamo

Y'all make noise about those issues, but you don't care about them. The left doesn't care about anyone or anything but their own power.

Do us a favor and tend to your own mismanaged 3rd-tier hellhole of a country before you criticize ours.

Correct. Gibson is a conservative. I lumped him in with the others because in the 80s, he was treated favorably by the leftwing media. But after his religious movie came out in the 90s, and his views became well-known, he's been a pariah in Hollywood ever since.

Did Trump fire the import ant people at the pandemic office? Did he gut the operation? NO So stop pretending he did.

IF YOUR TIME IS SHORT
“Fired” may be a little strong, but in 2018, top national security officials handling pandemics left abruptly and were not replaced by the Trump administration.

As for funding, there’s no question that the Trump administration sought to cut key CDC budget categories. But thanks to Congress, that funding was restored and even increased in bills that Trump ultimately signed.

All the deflection in the world isn't going to convince the millions of Americans whose vote Trump will need to be reelected that he his administration was prepared or responded quickly to this threat. We all saw how this played out...

It's funny. The left absolutely despised Bush when he was president. They ridiculed and derided him every step of the way. How did Bush react? He was very 'presidential'. He didn't fight back. Didn't argue with his critics? The result? He got fricking BURIED in the polls. He did exactly what the left wanted and he got destroyed.

President Trump is far too smart to play that game. He knows what entreaties for bi-partisan harmony really mean. The intent is to get conservatives to shut up and agree with the left. Leftwingers have NO interest in getting along. Their interests are purely in getting their way. Trump isn't playing. That's why he's polling at his highest level ever, despite the incessant hammering he's gotten from the leftwing media the past five years.

Back to Bush, he's now a hero to the left again, because he's being useful to them in bashing Trump. But I remember well how they despised him.

Yes, but his numbers eroded more and more as the attacks by the media continued. And Bush took it. He was very gentlemanly, very presidential. Just like the left says they want. And he got buried in the polls for not standing up for himself. Trump is WAY too smart for that. He knows what the game is, and he's not playing.

Is that why his poll numbers are falling?

The message to the president was sobering: Trump was trailing the former Democratic vice president in many key battleground states, he was told, and would have lost the Electoral College if the election had been held earlier this month.

Do you live in an alternate reality? Bush's poll numbers didn't start dropping till his second term....

It’s not just about intelligence. Trump is just by nature very deliberately and shockingly mean-spirited, vindictive, mendacious, narcissistic, and divisive. After all, those are the characteristics that appeal so much to his supporters. I don’t think he could manage to be emotionally supportive in any meaningful way even if he tried. How can a president who’s main campaign slogans was “f- your feelings” now try to provide emotional support to a nation in time of crisis? His response is what it has always been: more nonstop lies, cursing, political propaganda, and denigrating and dismissing science.

Classic narcissism: even a former president reaching out to comfort a frightened nation somehow turns out to be something about him.

I was reading about psychology professors who use clips of Donald Trump to demonstrate the classic DSM characteristics of narcissistic personality disorder to their class. You couldn’t hire actors to do a better job.
