Centrist era Republican - George W. Bush Discussion

Centrist, or do you mean Republican in Name Only?

reply

Was it centrist to have a war with Iraq? Bush and his dad with both rightwingers. However not as bad as Trump who is Ultraright.

Both Bush and Trump are moderates, (a little too moderate for me) unlike far left radicals like Hillary, Obama, Harris and Biden

Well, yes, since it had overwhelming support from both sides.
Trump is a moderate.
The Dems seem to like the Bush family these days. You can have them all.

Actually they’re called globalists.

You and I are globalists. Trump's been a globalist his entire life. If you're White and live in the Americas you're a byproduct of Globalism.

Don't kid yourself, Bush was the most extreme of his day. And don't forget Cheney.

On social issues, he was quite conservative. He was centrist on immigration, spending, foreign policy

The only way to get out of a Trump debacle is to bump a W. thread.

LOL, not remotely centrist, but he wasn't belligerent and reportedly was a really nice person but a disastrous president. Centrist Republicans (RINO) were run out of the GOP in the 60-80s in favor of racist Democrats. It's a fact, you can look it up.
