First, let's understand the background of George W. Bush. George W. Bush, his grandfather was a member of Congress, and his father, George H.W. Bush, was the 42nd president of the United States. Against such a family background, George W. Bush received political influence and planted the seeds of politics since he was a child.
From the age of 18, George W. Bush was actively involved in the Republican Party and participated in his father's congressional elections. He chose to join the Air Force during the Vietnam War and excelled in the unit, quickly being promoted to lieutenant.
However, because he did not want to miss the start of Harvard, George W. Bush ended his six-year military service early. He graduated from Harvard Business School in 1975 and went to Texas to study management in the petroleum industry.
In Texas, he worked diligently and ran for governor of Texas, serving two terms, becoming the first person in state history.
However, just after George W. Bush was successfully elected as the 43rd term of the United States, a series of major events occurred in the United States.
The first is the 911 terrorist attacks. Shortly after George W. Bush took office, two civilian airliners were hijacked and crashed directly into the World Trade Center building, causing the building to collapse, and one plane crashed into the Pentagon.
George W. Bush was teaching students at the time, and instead of dealing with the incident immediately, he chose to remain calm inside the school and did not leave until after the class. The incident shocked the American people and sparked a global war on terror.
This was followed by the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. George W. Bush actively addressed the nation, determined to make the perpetrators pay the price, and traced Osama bin Laden to be behind it. However, in this war, Bush Jr. has received a lot of criticism for his abilities.
The above is the main reason why George W. Bush was blamed. Whether it was 911 or the war decision, George W. Bush was controversial.
For the people in the United States, he has become a "ghost" in their eyes, and he has been blamed and infamy. But in any case, let us discuss and evaluate with an objective and calm attitude, after all, history will always give us answers. Former U.S. Bush Jr. is facing a series of troubles. During the war in Afghanistan, he wanted to bring bin Laden back to the United States to stand trial, but the war did not go well, and the United States paid for the lives of thousands of soldiers.
After the end of the war, he was supposed to cultivate himself and develop the domestic economy, but Bush Jr. set his sights on Iraq and its rich oil resources. Despite popular opposition, he decided to rally his troops and go to Iraq. However, several years of fighting did not achieve much, only caused huge losses and dealt a heavy blow to the national economy, so the American people were full of complaints against him.
Then, Hurricane Katrina hit the United States, bringing even more suffering. In fact, meteorological experts had long warned about the formation of Katrina in advance and reported it to Bush Jr. in a timely manner. But apparently, he didn't care about this and didn't take precautions, which led to Hurricane Katrina wreaking havoc in the United States.
New Orleans' levee burst, flooding nearly 80 of the city's levees. In the end, more than 1,800 people were killed in the hurricane, and the economic damage was as high as $200 billion.
These events led to a sharp decline in George W. Bush's reputation among the people, and his relatively friendly attitude towards China further aroused the discontent of members of the House of Representatives. They exposed Bush Jr.'s drunken driving, early termination of military service, and messy private life, and other unbearable pasts, and the people also joined in denouncing them.
Because he often makes mistakes in his speeches, he is ridiculed as the stupidest **.
Although more than 10 years have passed since George W. Bush's abdication, there are still some people who hate him to the core. Someone launched a vote on the ** you hate the most, but I didn't expect Bush Jr. to defeat the "ridiculous Trump" by an overwhelming margin and sit firmly on the first throne.
It can be seen that the American people's dislike for him is far-reaching.
George W. Bush, a child from a political family, realized his dream, albeit in a different way, but his administration was deeply imprinted on the pages of American history and left a unique mark in the annals of the US Department of Defense.
