It took years for the same thing happen with America’s war in Iraq. Maybe some people are learning.
No, people are dumber than ever. What changed is that in previous wars the lies were at least coherent. This time, every statement from every executive official contradicts every other statement, including those previously made by that same official.
Ah. So the people aren’t smarter — the leaders are dumber.
I remember GWB as a complete idiot but going back and watching his news conferences and interviews
He also wasn’t the one running the show.
Neither is Trump though. He sends out random panic threats on social media but, outside that, he is just being manipulated by his advisors and Netanyahu.

I meant that that GWB looked “smart” because of his puppeteers.

Trump is something else… puppet and puppeteers are all dumb.

That may well be, but I’m talking about solo interviews and other press events. No amount of competent coaching could get Trump to a place where he could be that coherent.
