On a day when conservative columnist Max Boot makes a persuasive case in the Washington Post for why Donald Trump is the worst president … ever, another writer, Becket Adams, in the Washington Examiner, writes how George W. Bush is gaining a “strange new respect.”
“The man who is held personally responsible for the state and local failures of Hurricane Katrina,” writes Adams, “ is enjoying some positive press this weekend following the publication of a report detailing his efforts as president to prepare the United States for a viral outbreak.”
Adams notes that, in 2005, Bush uttered, “If we wait for a pandemic to appear, it will be too late to prepare. And one day many lives could be needlessly lost because we failed to act today.”
If only the current occupant of the White House shared such respect for preparedness.
In the movie Airplane!, Lloyd Bridges plays the stressed-out air traffic controller who laments he picked the wrong week to give up amphetamines.
Unfortunately for the nation, in 2016, we picked the wrong time to elect the worst president. Ever.

And to think they both earned (bought) Ivy League degrees!
Hey, money talks … even with college admissions (and degrees).
Drumpf’s narcissist personality disorder proves time and time again what a terrible leader he would be. Narcissism breeds me me me, while leadership is all about us us us.
He’s a leader in the same sense a mob boss is a “leader.”
