Is that “the pivot to Asia” or something else

That was a pretty good one, but no, I meant the popular-ish idea in 2017 that Trump was going to pivot to the centre, based on his occasional kinda-lefty statements about healthcare, and his obvious enjoyment of beating other republicans in the primary.

It's slightly before 2004, so either the capture of Saddam Hussein or the release of The Return of the King.

he was a cruel, greedy hypocrite. so, a standard republican candidate rather than an exceptional one.

this reminds me of how funny it is that mccain is dead, laid low by a heroic tumor.

Remember when Republicans argued that if people had free healthcare, they would act in ways that imperilled their health?

It turns out that that was all projection.

Oh yeah, woops.

Well he sucked anyways. Arguably he sucked less than other Republicans of the last 50 years but he is still responsible for unleashing both Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney into executive power
