Former President George W. Bush, who led the United States into war across the Middle East, attacked President Trump on Wednesday night, saying U.S. intervention is necessary “for the sake of peace” around the globe.
During a panel alongside former President Bill Clinton at the Nir School of the Heart, Bush laid into Trump for his recent decision to withdraw up to 1,000 American troops from northeast Syria — fulfilling his longheld campaign promise to bring troops home after more than a decade of war.
“An isolationist United States is destabilizing around the world,” Bush said, according to the Washington Post‘s Josh Rogin.

“He should be invading more countries based on cooked up intelligence. Or we’ll cook up some intelligence against him!”
I was formerly a strong supporter. Before he started giving aid to the enemy. That is, the corrupt Dimokkkrap party.

I too was a strong supporter of GWB, but like his father he was an advocate of the “New World Order” and thought he was president of the world. Now I’m more than satisfied with DJT who only wants to be President of the USA.

I'm ashamed to admit that George W. Bush had me fooled for five years. I thought he was not his father's son. (I never liked nor trusted GHWB) A lot of you folks figured it out before me that not only was he a globalist, uniparty, big-government, crony -Crapitalist... He was a weak, wimpy, weasel.
On the other hand, at least he wasn't AlGore or John Kerry; So at least he's got that going for him.

President Bush is entitled to his opinions, but he is obligated to make his opinions at least marginally consistent. He and his father went to great lengths to avoid criticizing their Democrat successors. They haven't extended President Trump the same courtesy.
Given the appalling way that President Clinton treated his father during the 1992 election, you would think that family loyalty alone would dissuade W. from serving the Clinton family agenda. Again, not so much.
The Bush family seem to take great pleasure from being good losers. I prefer effective conservatives who want to win.

P.S. It seems the post preceding mine has activated italics. If anyone knows how to turn that off, please do so. If not, can we at least switch to Comic Sans?

I think I got it turned off; All it should take is a pointy parentheses and a "/i " then a pointy parentheses going the other way, but it doesn't always work the way it should.
My apologies to all.

The Old World Order - the Bretton Woods Agreement is dead. The Bush's tried to come up with a what's next New World Order. But, that was DOA.
The USA is getting out of the Global Management Business. We will no longer pay American blood and treasure so other countries to play nice.

Perpetual war is good for global peace?! What? I'd say it's more likely perpetual war is good for the bank accounts of the Bushes and their swamp cronies.

Not a peep out of the bush when obama set the world on fire and established ISIS. Remember the "Arab Spring"?

George W. Bush is part of the reason we ended up with 8 long years of Obama. The media savaged him 24x7x365, and he let them set the narrative by not defending himself. After 9/11, he invaded the Arab world, but had no clear exit strategy. He bent over backwards for the Democrats, and was used and abused in return. He sold out the United States to the globalistas. In the end, he was just another backstabbing RINO.
All the while, he acted like a Conservative. Its no surprise so many voters fell for him. There were very few alternatives at the time. It took years to unravel everything he said and done so we could see the real man. George W. Bush is proof positive that the real sneaks in Washington are the Republicans.
No more Bushes.
No more Clintons.
No more Obamas.
They have damaged this nation enough.

Asking George W. Bush about peace around the world is like asking Johnson if he thinks the Vietnam conflict brought about peace. NO! No more endless wars. We know your big donors are somehow getting rich from them, but the American people are rediscovering their power being led by the greatest President since Reagan.

Boy it would have been nice if he had been this scrappy while president. Defending his party against all the verbal abuse for years. A globalist like Bush is is not happy at the notion of America first for a change. Daddy's legacy and the purge of all those Saudi prince friends of theirs has got to be devastating to the Bush family. But I don't care about that. Just that Trump is putting America first.

Not surprising that Bush would string together words like "isolationist" and "anti-immigration". I, too, defended the guy, but he never struck me as a deep thinker. Of the two, Clinton seems more likely to appreciate Trump's novel form of engagement through the use of economic leverage, and the delegation of responsibility to regional powers. BJ might actually have had something interesting to say about it, if he chose to go off the reservation.
But what is the "Nir School of the Heart", at which they were speaking? It doesn't even have a Wikipedia entry, It does have a pretty, but remarkably vague, website. Something about Middle Eastern youth, especially girls, and cardiology.

Some great writer, perhaps Albert Nock I’m not certain, suggested that a president should not be judged for 100 years after his term. At that time, I thought that Dubya would be judged a great president eventually. I’ve changed my mind, although 100 years have a way to go.

George, he who suddenly found his tongue - any comment on Obama's Arab Spring which killed thousands of innocent civilians and turned an entire region into a dangerous blight on the entire Earth? Any comment on his war on America which destroyed entire industries and almost wrecked our energy sector? Any comment on the destruction of our health care system? Unchecked immigration? The rebirth of racism?
I hear crickets, George, you dimwitted idiot.

Yeah but, TODAY there is a cease fire and Turkey is on probation. It's called applying effective actions vs embracing a quagmire with no occupation or exit plan. Events continue to show just how stupid and a day late and dollar short this Bush is. After 8 years of no comment while a blatant imposter tried to destroy this country, shut your big dopey mouth George.
