The last Honorable President of United States

[rightwinger]

Honorable - one with integrity and willingness to do what is believed to be right, despite the harm it may bring to themselves.

The last President who deserves this label, in my opinion is H.W. Bush.
How sad is that? That the last President who conducted themselves in this manner was 28 years ago.
And we can clearly see where it has lead us.
There will be those who will say "what about Obama?". Obama conducted himself with physical poise and professionalism. But that does not make one honorable. Obama did many, many things that resulted in significant loss and pain to the many for the gain of the few. (including of course his own gain)
That is not honorable.
H.W. Bush is the last President that acted and chose according to what he believed to be right for the American people, and the country.
Some of his ideals and actions were wrong. Particularly his work with building economic relations with China. But that is much more out of his inability to see or predict the ruthless greed that led to where China is today.
Nothing showed the character of HW more than when he raised taxes. Despite heavy resistance within his own party, and the brutal attack by the media who constantly replayed his unfortunate campaign promise - READ MY LIPS!!! NO NEW TAXES.
In an interview 15 years later he was asked "knowing that it might have caused you the Presidency, would you still have done it?" - without hesitation he said "absolutely, it was the right thing to do".
A leader who chooses to do what is right, even if it cost them their own job... is who you want as President.
Will we ever have someone like that again?

What did Obama do for his own personal gain?

He did everything he could to undermine and divide America and was handsomely rewarded with a $15 million dollar mansion in Martha's vineyard.

Obama's money came from book sales. Not from grifting and fleecing the American taxpayer.

LOL.

Why not just come out and admit that winning the White House is like winning the lottery?

All presidents profit from their presidency. But Dear Leader is the first that grifted and looted taxpayers.

How many honorable Presidents turned down their salary?

Hmm?

How many honorable Presidents gave themselves a billion dollar tax cut?

How are the interests of Republicans separate from those of the country?

Part of his honor

He was willing to put the needs of the country above his absolute promise.

Took guts

I would submit that GW Bush did what he thought right also at great harm to himself.
And Trump has obviously done what he thinks is right at terrible harm and cost to himself.

You cannot possibly be that gullible.

They are absolutely dead serious.

Their adoration is unequivocal and unconditional.

Just because President Trump doesn't kiss the ass of the democrat and it's propaganda wing known as mainstream media doesn't make him any less honorable.
He's doing what is right for America. and putting America first.

Republicans were willing to block a recovery to prevent Obama from being re-elected

And Trump has obviously done what he thinks is right at terrible harm and cost to himself.

I would disagree with GW, and obviously disagree with Trump... I mean c'mon.
With GW, I find it impossible that he didn't know what was happening in the financial markets. I do remember him saying and warning of a coming crises due to over selling in the housing market... but he didn't push it. And he didn't push against high-high spending and he fought the 2nd Iraq war critically bad. He was too worried about the political fallout both domestically and globally.
Trump... Christ... the guy is almost the exact opposite of honorable. He is egotistical to the nth degree, his self grandiose supercedes his realization of the supreme importance of his position. He is petty, in getting involved with gutter fights with whomever... he doesn't even et to say the word honorable let alone be considered for it.

^ DELETE. ^ Your nontopical rant wasn't even the question. The question is did they do what they thought was right? And the answer is YES. Did they do so at their own expense? And the answer again is a resounding YES.

He did everything he could to undermine and divide America and was handsomely rewarded with a $15 million dollar mansion in Martha's vineyard.

The Great Obama accomplished all he did despite the Republicans looking to put their interests above those of the country.
