Trump is a loudmouth asshole..stupid and insensitive, without doubt an asshole and big mouth

.Bush Jr. is in a different class..".killer/murderer"
Please look at these numbers...
I will never forget the pain suffering and death Bush Jr. caused.


Iraq War deaths and wounded.....
_______________________________________________________________________________________
As of June 29, 2016, according to the U.S. Department of Defense casualty website, there were 4,424 total deaths (including both killed in action and non-hostile) and 31,952 wounded in action (WIA) as a result of the Iraq War.

Lancet survey 601,027 violent deaths out of 654,965 excess deaths ....2003 - 2005

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casualties_of_the_Iraq_War

Credible estimates of Iraq War casualties range from 151,000 violent deaths as of June 2006 (per the Iraq Family Health Survey) to 461,000 total deaths as of June 2011 (per PLOS Medicine 2013), over 60% of them violent.[1] Other disputed estimates, such as the 2006 Lancet study and the 2007 Opinion Research Business (ORB) survey—which likely overestimate mortality—put the numbers as high as 655,000 total deaths as of June 2006 (over 90% of them violent) and 1.2 million violent deaths as of August 2007 respectively. Meanwhile, body counts—which likely underestimate mortality—put the numbers as low as 110,600 violent deaths as of April 2009.[1]

And may have advised Bush Jr. to do what he did. No doubt Cheney was awful.
And Bush Jr. picked Cheney.....
. And yes, Cheney is scum and awful..
and mean and shit. In some ways they are the exact same. You are correct on that. Vicious scum (apologies to positive scum) both of them. (I changed my thinking on this, from your post...thank you)
