Just watched the Boy Boy video on George Bush’s Masterclass, and they made me think about which U.S. President was actually worse.

    Anyone who says trump was worse should not be taken seriously about politics, all they care about is feeling good about their country and being able to ignore politics. Bush killed half a million Iraqis in service of oil company quarterly earnings, it’s not even close.

      1: A million 2: COVID. 3: Trump would have glassed the entire Middle East on 9/11. He’s called for it this year.

      He’s just too stupid to make it happen.

      Is that actually better?

        I usually use half a million, as that’s the undisputed number. I agree though that it’s most likely a full million. Why would you believe anything trump says? And Trump’s response to COVID is not nearly as bad as what bush did in Iraq.
