How W. Bush & Obama Paved Way for Trump: A History of Risky Precedents for Becoming President

"Without George W. Bush’s presidency, it’s hard to imagine Obama’s 2008 victory; without both, it’s hard to imagine Trump being so dominant in 2016. Regardless of whether Trump wins in November, his securing the Republican Party’s nomination sets incredibly disturbing precedents that America will be stuck with for the foreseeable future and may never be able to shake off, much to the the detriment of its already struggling political system. Decades from now, Trump’s winning the nomination will be seen as a watershed moment, one that had roots in Obama’s victory, George W. Bush’s presidency, and even going back to the “Reagan Revolution.”

When JFK bolstered separation of Church & State, fantastic, then came Jimmy with his damned Bible every damned Sunday.

Cher has said what a let-down it was when she and whoever had their bubble bursted at the first victory dinner.

& Jimmy had a nest of vipers at his breast more than Cleopatra: Pat CADDELL, Tweety, whassisname David RUBENSTEIN the later founder of The Carlyle Group. Outsider, that's the ticket.
