this is seriously a historical novelty

the conservative right wing has always done worse when the economy was bad, because they were institutional and thus when the institutions failed, the conservatives had failed. this dynamic has been completely eliminated in europe today. i don't know what this implies.

'Right wing' - but radical.

Every major government massively increased government interference in the economy or had a radical shift in economic policy.

And if you want war with Iran, well then Jeb Bush will be happy to provide:

Quote of the day, “If you want to know who I listen to for advice, it’s him.” ~ Jeb Bush, on George W. Bush.

quote:

When asked this week at an exclusive Manhattan gathering about who advises him on U.S.-Israel policy, Jeb Bush surprised many of the 50-plus attendees by naming his brother, former president George W. Bush, as his most influential counselor.

“If you want to know who I listen to for advice, it’s him,” Bush said Tuesday, speaking to a crowd of high-powered financiers at the Metropolitan Club, according to four people present.
Ahahahaha:suicide:

Yep, that+Jeb's foreign policy chart confirms it, the only question remaining is if Jeb would wait a month or a year into his first term to invade Iran.
