No one ever considered him a conservative. He is a celebrity playing politics.
4% unemployment under Bush. Nuff said.
“The handling of Katrina was a nightmarish bungle.”
You have no clue

Wow it is amazing when someone talks like a populist you fake conservatives looks like the biggest suckers in the world when someone says the supposed right thing. The free market is way to go..
Unemployment is your only measure of a President?
Obama today we have Bush cause it did.
So this idiot would have preferred Kerry over bush nd believes George W Bush was the worst US president? This guy is worst than a RINO. He’s a dem.
now that it’s the norm, he doesn’t have a choice if he wants to remain competitive and that doesn’t change the fact that he was right in 1992 when he warned us of the “giant sucking sound”.
Trump will do some useful damage to obama.
He won’t be the Repub nominee and I don’t believe he will siphon enough votes to save obama....
Look at unemployment, low inflation, lower deficits, etc. The economy was booming under Bush. despite 9/11. We kicked despots out of Iraq and Afghanistan and brought in free elections. We kicked a mudhole in the terrorist movement by killing their leaders.
What do we have under Obama? Misery.

But Bush 2 could not beat Al Qeada in Afganistan in 7 years. And the best he could do in Iraq was a cease-fire, which will probably go bad once US troops leave.
We have been stalemated in both Afghanistan and Iraq. And that has emboldened radical islam everywhere.
Plus, Bush did absolutely nothing to secure the Mexican boarder. We will pay dearly for this in the future.
Any good Bush might have done pales in comparison to the above. So if Bush was not the worst president, he comes close.
And we’re supposed to believe this guy is a conservative republican?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I agree 100%. Now he’s PANDERING to the so-called media. Ignoring the stupidity of Obambi and the colossal naivety of Carter and to attack Bush who actually followed our Constitution for 8 years is incredibly stupid on his part.
He’ll be a regular guest on the VIEW now that he’s attacked Bush. He’s now removed himself from any conservative support by flapping his big mouth. He’s had his 15 minutes of Freeper interest.
I did state in another post that I disagree with that statement.
However, I’ve followed Trump and read a couple of his books.
He probably considers Bush bad not because of what he did, but how he handled it. Trump is all about the packaging and the presentation and being a salesman.
We can all admit Bush wasn’t the greatest at that. But, no, he didn’t deserve the “worst” label at all.
International trade has some free markets and a lot of rigged and manipulated ones because some nations (not us) actually act in their national interest. They engage in mercantilism. Donald’s point is that we are the patsy of those who rig trade like China, Japan and other Asian nations
We have good rule of law across the Unites States so free markets are real within our borders and can be enforced. International trade doesn’t work like that.
We also run a huge trade deficit in oil and energy. We have to produce more here by setting loose our drillers and energy producers
While Bush did incalculable damage to the conservative cause, he is no where near to the worst tier of presidents (Lincoln, FDR, LBJ, Carter, Obummer), and Trump knows that. Trump throws these statements out for headlines.
Every conservative should know that Trump is all over the map with his opinions and should not seriously be considered for any elective office.
Which is not to say that I don't appreciate Trump's poking his finger in the Fraud's eye.
He is a whore. I really don’t know why anyone would be surprised to come to that realization. Assuming anyone here is surprised.
