PALM BEACH (The Borowitz Report)In a blistering attack on another former Commander-in-Chief, Donald J. Trump called George W. Bush ungrateful, telling reporters, I kept him from being the worst President in history.
When he left office, he was at the bottom of the list of PresidentsI mean, the very, very bottom, he said. Then I got into office and changed all that.
I worked hard, day in, day out, to keep Bush from being the worst, he said. Hes given me no credit for that whatsoever. This should never be allowed to happen in this country.
Despite doing Bush this incredible favor, Trump said, I have never got so much as a thank-you note from that ungrateful bastard. I dont know, maybe hes too busy with his so-called paintings to write.
Trump called Bushs warnings about domestic terrorism during a speech on the twentieth anniversary of 9/11 totally out of line. He added, When he was President, there were terrorists all over the world. I brought terrorism jobs back to the U.S.A.

(203,041 posts)I was aware that Bush* really didn't "win" in 2001 and I was sure that he was going down in 2004. But if I had a choice between Bush* and TFG, there's no question who I'd pick. TFG has corrupted not only "the party of Lincoln" with his unique brand of insanity and prejudice like no president in history, he alienated every single one of our allies to say nothing of the mass death we're experiencing in this country - and even now he's still at it!

We need to do everything in our power to make sure no GOP candidate ever occupies the WH again!

(203,041 posts)He's also done the same thing for Liz Cheney. We may not agree with practically anything the "traditional" Republicans say or do - but those who inexplicably agree with or "follow" TFG have taken dishonesty and insanity to a previously unimagined new level.
