It made a lot of my Maga Friends mad that Susan Collins, Murkowski, and Mitch McConnell put a negative vote on Pete Hegseth when they just let all of the Joe Biden staff go through without a hitch, and it was the Joe Biden's staff that messed up the world over the last 4 years. But the media and some Republicans are not talking negatively about them. The George HW Bush family members, Republican Rhinos, and people in their social cocktail circle want to keep placing Donald Trump and staff members In the inferior un-classroom to them - the superior voices of sophisticated people, helped by ABC, CBS, NBC, New New York Times, Washington Post, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, etc. I must agree with my friends. That makes me mad too.

George W Bush August two thousand five, talking to the Mississippi Gulf Coast Residence, you're doing a great job, Brownie! Fema's response to Hurricane Katrina was an utter and complete problem. Wipe out New Orleans residences and the Gulf Coast. George W Bush turned out to be a common liar. Every time George W Bush is around President Trump, in 2025, he snubs him like President Trump is an underclass person to Georgia W.'s superior morality.
