George HW Bush. Essentially, a nine term President under Rockefeller direction. Oh yes, Bush controlled Reagans presidency, his own presidency, 2 term Clinton, 2 term George W Bush, 2 term Obama, ... and Hillary as global leader.
Exactly. 1984 was the last genuine POTUS election held in the USA.
I don't think Bush controlled the first half of Reagan's Presidency (outside of Bush trying to assassinate Reagan) ... he definitely made an impact (a bad one) during his second term.
HW Bush wasn't liked in general. I was cracking up watching the NPCs say "maybe he wasn't that bad" during his funeral ... only because the TV told them it was OK to say such things now (they did the same thing with McCain ... it was so fucking obvious NPCs were parroting TV talking heads that it hurt :-) ).
HW Bush had to kneecap Gary Hart to stand a chance in '88 (ironically, Gary Hart only had an affair ... just 4 years later, Bill Clinton ran ... the media barely mentioned his philandering and never made a big deal out of it). I know Reagan was insanely popular, but it is very hard for an incumbent party to hold the WH for more than 2 terms ... Bush took care of that by destroying Hart.
Bush was "lucky" to face an idiot like Mike Dukakis in the election ... I think the fucking piece of shit made his own luck knowing few wanted that garbage scow nowhere near the Presidency.
Nancy Reagan was never the front man. A power play occurred where they tried to assassinate him, but you can't call his second term an act. It was during that term he set the Soviet Union on course for collapse.
Really. I will have to disagree. Russia did not have to collapse. There were agreements in place. George HW Bush collapsed the USSR for war booty, except no war; so interior turmoil would have to do. Who is expert in that? CIA. Who is George HW Bush? CIA. No friend, Ronnie had lost most of his marbles by then.
Gorbachev tapped out when he implemented Perestroika and Glastnost. Geopolitically, those programs were a humiliation after decades of global cultural conflict. You don't concede a propaganda/culture war like that unless you know the end is near. Both programs happened during the Reagan admin.
Reagan had trapped the Soviets into a game of chicken with spending on the arms race. He used the Star Wars program as a boogeyman, and utilized US deficit spending as an advantage. The Soviet financial system did not allow deficit spending, so they went bankrupt. By the time Reagan left office, the Soviet Union was terminally ill and there was no saving it.
Woodrow Wilson’s wife took over his administration
Trust the Plan. Trump will soon intervene.
This is a great movie. The Braveheart Trump Meme? Anons think it may be "911" (upper left quadrant) and indicate that the DS is about to be reamed.
Imagine the dialog between Soros and 911 operator:
"A wild herd of Patriots has invaded my sanctum.", whines Soros.
911 Operator recognizes the number. "/click"
I cringed at your choice of words... "shooting for"- was that deliberate? Meaning they'll try to martyr him?
