This has to be bait. Nobody who actually knows anything about JRs presidency would present him like this unless they were apologists or trolls.

I don't think it's bait (though I don't think OP believes this opinion, we're on lemmy's 196), I think it's a political shitpost.

What is a shitpost but bait that you admit is bait?

Why are you people so mean to him :( He killed so many Iraqis and this is how you honour him?

Sorry, but who is JR? Contextually, it seems like it's supposed to be George W. Bush, but there's no J or R there, so I'm lost.

There's George H.W Bush and George W. Bush so without using the middle initials people would say George Jr or George Sr.

Funny how people cried about a Clinton Dynasty, but those same people were fine voting for father and son to be president and now want an actual dictator... I hate politics.

Oh right. JR = Jr = Bush Jr = George W Bush?

Cheers.
