Oh by the way, I think that budget deal ( aka that broke “No new Taxes” ) was pushed by Darman and Sununu. They were the Establishment we are rebelling against now, we were to stoopid to know they were Shtuping us back in the day....
Well that didn’t help either. Bush never should have given absolutes. That is the dumbest thing any President can do. You never know what the environment is going to be when you get into that seat. It is EASY to say whatever you want while campaigning, but when reality hits you over the head, you are screwed if you promised something that is impossible to happen.

George Washington himself spelled potato with an e at the end.
Shortly after the media contrived so-called controversy, Quayle said he spelled potato with an e at the end because the teacher spelled it that way in the class Quayle was visiting and he, Quayle, did not want to embarrass the teacher.
Meanwhile, Obama and Biden are a gaffe a minute.
Bush would never pick a VP more successful or well liked than himself.
That is why Bush picked Quayle. Because Quayle is a moron.
Quayle. A living footnote to history.
“Dan Quayle was Sarah Palin before she was Sarah. They had to destroy him and they did and we are a more Fubared up nation because of it. He was damn good talent and it was a Dang shame they took him out of the running for anything...”
Agree too. He was considered smart and competent (and very conservative) when he was in the Senate. He was simply unprepared for a media as nasty then as it is now.
“Oh by the way, I think that budget deal ( aka that broke “No new Taxes†) was pushed by Darman and Sununu.”
It is said that Darman came running into to the Oval Office screaming: “We got them, we got the Democrats!”
He was SO HAPPY with the promised budget cuts and that he FINALLY put to bed the “gridlock” claim of the media that he didn’t even care about the tax increases, or more likely, was clueless regarding the political cost.
The ONE PERSON that could have saved Bush on that was Lee Atwater, but the Dems managed to take him out with brain cancer (not sure how they did that, but it worked - maybe got something hot placed in his home).
Hmmm.... I thought Trump was a democrat? Trump identified as a Republican back in 1988. Another GOPe myth bites the dust.
And Mr. Corps Man.
Potatoe
So much wrong in your statement.
Totally agree.
Bill Clinton is also glad that Dan Quayle was chosen and not Trump.
Not a word actually.
Sometimes I am embarrassed to be a Republic when I see guys like this.
I have a good buddy who hired Quayle after the election. He ended up firing him for incompetence.
This shows that Trump was a Republican back in 1988. This goes against what has been posted on this board by the hacks.
George H. W. Bush not GW Bush.
