heya Trident!
woulda and coulda?
in the two years the Democratic party controlled both the executive and legislative branches, they did not lower taxes on the wealthy, they did not flee multilateral environmental treaties like they were radioactive, and they did not appoint conservatives to the SCOTUS.
until you can address any of the above, my point still stands.
i didn't follow any of that tawdry stuff - it really held no interest to me. you followed it closely?
in terms of the great recession, i think its unfair to lay all of that GWB's feet, i agree. i do think the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Act under Bush's tenure made things magnitudes worse by increasing the deficit, thereby exploding the debt - which really emptied the toolbox for Mr. Obama in 2009 when he had to tackle the economic catastrophe that ushered in his presidency.
that's fine, lol. if you honestly believe that a Democratic POTUS would put a conservative on the Supreme Court, slash taxes for the wealthy, or abandon the Paris Agreement.....ummmm.....well...
...you're an unusual fellow.

Would ofs and could ofs....
Sorry, brodda, but 2006 gave them the Senate and the House and 2008 gave them the Executive also. I worked for that to happen, foolishly believing in the, what I know now to be superficial, rhetoric that was building against the Bush administration assault on American government.

The 2007 financial crisis was set-up under the Clinton administration, as we followed salacious stories of blow jobs and inter-uterin cigars, the future was mortgaged.

I'm not buying ideas that the Dems wouldn't have done this or that.
