What's this?

McCain and Bush are establishment guys

trying to hold the true Trump supporter back. they (theDonald and his supporters) will wear this attack like a badge of honor.

that said, the messages coming from the McCains and Bushes of the world will resonate more with middle-of-the-road Americans that care about policy and, more importantly, our position in the world (which is becoming weaker by the day). it certainly carries more weight than what we hear from a nimrod like Maxine Waters, the whining (or crying) from Chuck Schumer or protesters that would have people apologize for anything positive that has happened in their lives.

Don't forget the biggest crash since the Depression. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 10/19/2017 1:40PM

Yeah, the Great Recession has to be 1b if Iraq is 1a -- WahooMatt05 10/19/2017 1:48PM

Bigger issue, but no one could justifiably blame Bush for that -- hoodeyo 10/19/2017 1:50PM

I agree that too much blame (and credit) goes to the President for markets -- WahooMatt05 10/19/2017 1:54PM

Clinton's Iraq vote was one reason Obama was the nominee. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 10/19/2017 1:55PM

I think it's a part of the reason Trump's President, too. It cost her -- southdenverhoo 10/19/2017 4:12PM

That's not on him imo, that was a long-building, multi-issue -- hoodeyo 10/19/2017 1:48PM

I understand. At least he took action to prevent it completely spiraling -- Seattle .Hoo 10/19/2017 1:52PM

As it should be. ** -- hooshouse 10/19/2017 1:30PM
