Remember all the warnings about the harm that Citizens United and overturning parts of the Voting Rights Act would do?

1) Bush stole an election.

2) Bush appointed TERRIBLE people to the Supreme Court.

3) That Supreme Court upheld Citizens United and dark money entered the elections.

4) Portions of the Voting Rights Act were overturned by that same Supreme Court.

4) The Russians took advantage of 3 and 4.

5) We have Trump.

Bush needs to own this; he's a narcissist, and he won't. In fact, one of the things that most bugged me about the Bushes is that I felt that personally weren't opposed to abortion and personally weren't racists, but were completely willing to exploit those issues to get elected anyway.
