57. Exactly. He was also head of the CIA.

I am no fan of GHW Bush. He was instrumental in the direction the country took toward where we are today along with Nixon, Reagan, and the entire group of neocons. He has serious blood on his hands. However, as I said, he was NEVER a wimp. He had an ideology, that I could not disagree with more, and his actions have been questionable (putting it very nicely).

The problem I have is with Coulter lumping Bush in with Trump as wimps. Trump is and has always been a wimp. He has never done his own dirty work. He is a coward bully, while Bush put his body on the line to defend America during wartime.
