House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) during an interview early Sunday accidentally referred to President Trump as former President George W. Bush.
After the mistake on ABC’s “This Week,” Pelosi quickly corrected herself.
“I’m so sorry, President Bush,” Pelosi said. “I never thought I would pray for the day that you were president again.” Pelosi was discussing Democrats working with the White House when she mentioned Bush.
I totally get what Pelosi is feeling, because I feel it all of the time as well.
I started this blog to oppose George W. Bush, and I have no intention of engaging in revisionist history or minimizing my strong anger and frustration at his administration.
However at the time I thought he was the worst president this country would EVER see.
And then November 2016 arrived and I had a whole new definition of “worst.”
It is not even like comparing apples to oranges.
It is more like comparing the measles to leprosy.
George W. Bush was terrible, with a capital “T.”
But Donald Trump is goddamn catastrophic.
And like that lady in the post below is saying, we have NEVER seen anything that him before, and I hope to never see anything like him again.
