For anyone saying that we are in a “ #constitutionalcrisis”, I guess your eyes were closed when #Bush & #Cheney flat out lied to manufacture #consent to invade #Iraq or when #Obama was drone striking so many innocent people in the #MiddleEast.
Yeah let's talk about how #Bush & 9/11 laid the foundation for these #massdeportations & shit tbh.
Idk if people get it or are old enough to remember but like #GeorgeWBush got caught lying & everyone kinda shrugged it off because we were "fighting #terrorism".
There's a straight line connecting it all.
Interesting analysis of the parallels between presidents #Bush Jr. 2 terms and #Trump 's second term.

Was für ein Wahnsinn im #Wertewesten: Die Verbrechen der Junta in #Jerusalem machen mich fassungslos:
Die #Nakba - imo deckungsgleich mit dem #Holocaust, der #Shoa - findet JETZT in GAZA an den Palästinensern statt. Für alle sichtbar!
Unsere Medien trichtern uns ein, Putin zu verteufeln. Teufel aus Jerusalem - genauso wie die Völkermörder #Blair und #Bush, die kriminell den #Irak überfallen und Hunderttausende Menschen abgeschlachtet hatten - scheinen sakrosankt morden zu dürfen.
@georgetakei Man, I used to respect the #USA It was cool, it was advanced, it was free and well... heroic. I remember #9/11 and how I, just coming back from the local WWII museum, cried in angry shock at what was done to you.
#Bush might not have been a statesman but his heart was right and he fought the good fight. I couldnt really believe it when #Iraq turned out to be an unjust war. That daddy issues an some manifest Destiny 'enlightend imperialism' was behind it. Took a few years but yeah I got it. Thought it was an aberation. The core was good and even Bush was at heart a decent fellow who made some really bad choices.
#Obama was oke, thought the Obamamania was a bit overkill as was winning the Nobel peace prize for being... president while black I guess. Still definitly a good man and a force for good in the world. Imperfect but good.
And then Trump 1. Damn what a shitshow. The vaunted rule of law, the sacred #democracy the respected institutions. It held after a genuine but oh so incompetently orchestrated self-coup.
#Biden was good. Tired and old but good and above all as decent and professional as you can expect a carreer politician to be.
Now this...
I hope my family over there make it.
But at least MAGA can now Hurt the evil trannies huh. I am trans and now I cry in angry shock at what you are.
1/2 From here there is little excuse for what we see as the attack-on-our-governance-from-within unfolds. Our adversaries could not have achieved this without paying a heavy price. We don’t have the option of saying the electorate didn’t know what it was getting into…
#Democrats made some serious tactical errors in a situation wherein checks and balances were already under attack. #SCOTUS had already become cancerous.
Having become seriously engaged before #Bush v. #Gore we’ve logged those…

In den #USA haben seit 1990 vor allem die demokratischen Präsidenten für Börsenaufschwung gesorgt.
Bill #Clinton, Barack #Obama und auch Joe #Biden waren ein Segen für die #Wirtschaft.
Unter George #Bush war es nicht so toll, die Amtszeit Bidens war bzgl. Börse auf dem Level wie Trumps erste Amtszeit und nun stürzt #Trump mit 20% Verlust seit Amtsbeginn der zweiten Amtszeit alles ins Chaos.
#Bush made fascism better for liberals to tolerate because he hid his behind the cloak of a loveable oaf. Liberals remember the #liberal oaf & not the #warcriminal.
Hell, #Iraq was a #bipartisan decision.
Why am I not scolding #Republicans for #Bush?
Because almost every #Republican admits #GeorgeWBush was a fuck-up and a mistake. They also hate him for sending their #warcriminal sons to fight that criminal #war.
@ronaldtootall@tech.lgbt The fact he's not going on every goddamn radio and TV station and calling out #Trump's bullshit is disappointing.
Not only would he still command the views and ratings, but he's still much more popular than Trump and it would totally drive Trump insane.
He would be seething so bad and that's all Trump would be able to focus on.
For that matter, George W. #Bush needs to be out there and speaking against Trump. #USpol #Obama
