The choice was Bush and Gore and Bush was the better choice and the choice was Bush and Kerry and the better choice was Bush.
Simplistic.
A Republican Congress would have gone along with a Romney AWB or a Romney amnesty, same with McCain. And we would never have gotten Trump. The Bush sycophants during the Bush years, in many cases were just as moronic as Obamabots. Obama gave us the Freedom Caucus, Trump, and a conservative base willing to fight socialism, instead of pucker. Bush was a disaster to conservatism and the Republic. Glad he’s gone.
