...AND mind you, at the VERY time we needed a fearless leader at the helm!

Oh well, he can fill his presidential library with his art. God knows it is the ONLY thing of his worth displaying. And I say even THAT with disgust

The only good thing I can say about W is that he was better than the alternatives.

Tucker C has a great them about how DC/elites do nothing to improve the lives of citizens, and this is just another example.

You have dems who want illegal aliens because they want votes and RINOs who want illegals for cheap labor. They tell displaced American workers who suffer because of this to get educated and learn technical and specialty skills. Then they want to bring in H1b's to take their jobs. The only guy who cares about Americans seems to be Trump.

That’s one good reason why former presidents have presidential libraries - spokesmen can speak for them and they don’t have to take responsibility for the idiotic statements or the heat!

Bush should speak for himself and stop hiding behind the library.

H1Bs are evil.
They laid off half of our staff this past summer, all the American engineers.
They kept the H1Bs because, besides the normal severance, they’d have to pay them a repatriation allowance (enough to ship their crap back to their home world, reimburse them for any losses when they sold their homes and cars, and pay for plane fare to boot).
So, it’s just cheaper to axe Americans.

“Anyone promoting h1bs or their ilk over Americans should burn in hell or be assisted thereon.”
Agreed.

You are 100% wrong. It is very disingenuous to pretend that for the last 25 months Trump was free to enact EOs he ran on. He was is a fight for his life and probably had 60% of the power he would have normally been vested with due to the GOP constantly warning him of impeachment if he does X. Things are slowly improving as the coup fell apart.

Second, OMB cannot reject an EO. And an EO does not have to go through any review process. OMB cannot pidgeonhole it and smirk that they killed it. An EO can completely ignore them.
It need only be published in the Federal register, and then it has force of law unless Congress over-rides it, or unless it is prohibited by the constitution.

OMB doesn’t get a vote, and there is no public comment period on an executive order. You are confusing that with the rulemaking process within an agency.

Better get another box of crackerjacks globalboy.

I never despised a president more than the later days of 9/11

Bush left the borders wide open after 9/11, created the useless Department of Homeland Security, and began unconstitutional government spying that will most likely continue forever.

Yup. Never did. Didnt fight back against the MSM, unlike Trump.

It was Rumsfeld and Cheney who were defending him. I’m sure those 2 got tired of his “I’m the target hit me” attitude.

“I can testify first hand regarding globalist H1B visa displacement of American workers. I am employed by a large tech company (cannot name for fear of termination) that American engineers of all stripes have been let go and back filled with H1B workers by the hundreds.”

That’s not a surprise. If there is one thing you can count on from the Bush family is that they’ll support any effort to increase the influx of future Democrats and oppose any effort to reduce that influx.

Plus, it was the first President Bush who created H1B visas in the first place when he signed the terrible Immigration Act of 1990 (written largely by Ted Kennedy and Chuck Schumer) into law.

Can you imagine George P or BEto dealing with Putin or Kim? Trump is respected because they fear him. These lightweights would destroy everything. Huge disappointment in W. I wonder if visitors to his library have declined.
