For all the horrors of the Iraq and Afghanistan disasters, the Katrina nightmare, the lies and utter incompetence, Bush and Cheney did not attempt to destroy the fabric of the Republic.

This is the end of the American Experiment: a Thermite bomb.

W might have been a dim bulb, and Cheney the dark evil lord, but they had limits. They both knew American history and had some respect for the institutions of government. And W had enough credibility to talk the country into war. Trump has nothing. He is out to enrich himself and his family, he knows nothing, wants to know nothing, and has a serious personality disorder. America failed. It put in office someone totally unfit. Yes, W is looking good. I'd take him back in a minute, and Cheney too if it would rid the country of the Orange anus.
