"George W. Bush: A hero in the eyes of China, an 'inner ghost' in the eyes of the United States
He is the hero in the hearts of the Chinese, the ** who once made Americans gnash their teeth, Donald Trump, that is, Trump. However, if we want to talk about the ** that the American people hate to the core, it is none other than Bush Jr. It's been 14 years since he left office, but every time his name is mentioned, anger and resentment still seem to linger. What did George W. Bush do wrong?Let's unravel this fascinating historical mystery.
The tenure was mundane and controversial.
In 2005, Hurricane Katrina struck the United States, killing thousands of lives and causing economic losses of nearly $130 billion. Meteorological experts reported in a timely manner, but Bush Jr. did not pay attention to it again and again. His inaction caused the hurricane to wreak havoc, killing nearly 2,000 people, leaving behind a heavy national debt, and becoming the "inner ghost" in the mouth of the American people
What makes people even more angry is Bush Jr.'s "pro-China" move. In 2008, the financial crisis broke out in the United States, the economy fell into decline, and millions of people lived on the streets. George W. Bush was powerless to save the situation and was accused of being a disaster maker. Although the beginning of the crisis had nothing to do with him, people imposed complaints on him. The national debt continues to rise, and Bush Jr. is facing a change of office, but he cannot escape the involvement. Clinton's accumulated family wealth was exhausted during Bush Jr.'s tenure, and the people complained awkwardly, and the possibility of George W. Bush's re-election was dashed. When Obama took over, the fiscal deficit, the economic crisis, the pressure of the mountain of pressure came upon him. George W. Bush's political achievements have become a burden to his successors, leaving behind a mess that no one wants to carry.
After rebellion, he chose to enter politics.
George W. Bush is not an ordinary man. As a member of the veteran Bush family, he rose in the shadow of his family. His father was a U.S. congressman, and the influence of this large family provided strong support for George W. Bush's political career. The lifelong goal of the head of any generation is to strengthen the family, and the same is true of George W. Bush.
However, his life was not all smooth sailing. In 1973, George W. Bush voluntarily ended his Air Force career just to follow his father's arrangement and enter Harvard University for further study. During his time at school, Bush Jr.'s temper and dissatisfaction with his father's arrangements led to twists and turns in his life. He lingered in wine-colored places, and he and his fox friends were deeply trapped under the beauties' tents, singing and singing night after night. This period of rebellion became the pretext of his later political career, and the experience of Fengyue became the point of attack during the campaign.
Bad luck, two wars.
George W. Bush's political career seemed to be a good one, but the wheel of fortune quickly turned. On September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks plunged the United States into the quagmire of war. George W. Bush was told that there had been a plane accident, but he did not pay attention to it at first. It was only when he learned that the target of the attack was the World Trade Center that he realized that the United States had been attacked. At this moment, George W. Bush's anger and anger reached its peak.
Bush then marched his army into Afghanistan and launched a war in retaliation against the attackers. However, this operation became an operation that injured 1,000 enemies and inflicted 800 losses, and the U.S. military suffered serious losses and paid a heavy price economically. During George W. Bush's tenure, two wars led to the US monopoly on Middle Eastern oil, but the national debt climbed to 10 percent due to fiscal profligacy6 trillion dollars, becoming a huge hole in the burden of successors.
Epilogue.
In the United States, George W. Bush's actions are notorious. However, in the eyes of the Chinese, his image has a two-level reversal. During the war in Afghanistan, George W. Bush invited China to participate, and the Iraq war established good diplomacy with China. In the 2008 Olympic Games, George W. Bush led his family to attend, providing an opportunity for our country to promote rapid economic development. His eight years in office have been the result of the rapid development of our country's economy.
Today, while George W. Bush is being criticized in the United States, his contribution cannot be ignored in China. His policies have created development opportunities for our country and given us a new future. Perhaps, the United States will be hated for a long time, but China is rising and standing proudly like a lion. Like the rebellious young man, even if he has received infamy in the land of his homeland, he may be a hero in a foreign land.
This is the legend of George W. Bush, who has achieved two completely different images in the eyes of two countries.
