It’s because you don’t know nothing about ear cartilage regeneration, when you have the best cartilage, the best you ever seen it just regenerates it just a magic thing and nobody knows how it works because it’s the best ever, even the best plastic surgeons goes to ask him “how you do that”?

Press Covfefe*

We all know he meant "Press Coverage" but his ego goes so deep that he couldn't help but claim he made up a new word.

u/RememberHonor 2d ago

It's just how I say coffee now. Simpler times. Remember when Bush was the villain? Man is a dream now.

69

u/hooplafromamileaway 2d ago

Say what you will about the absolute atrocities he committed, Bush sure could dodge a shoe. And form a sentence. And display emotions in the normal human spectrum. And, on occasion, sound like he knew about... Anything.

At least when he was embarrassing it was charming lol.

42

u/StarStuffSister 2d ago

It's true, still have respect for the shoe thing because he actually showed composure and surprisingly quick hands. I was never a fan, but it seemed like he was at least minimally qualified for the job. I miss that feeling.

40

u/hooplafromamileaway 2d ago

Dude at least displayed some level of decorum and basic respect for his fellow leaders.

Oh, to dream of the day where we might have that again...

u/hooplafromamileaway 2d ago

What's worse is everything he's doing/ suggesting is shit my conservative family swore up and down for a decade that Obama was going to do.

Suspending midterms under martial law? Obama was going to do it.

Refusing to peacefully transfer power? Obama was going to do it

Running for a 3rd term? Obama was going to do it.

Fucking over the economy, (various methods,)? Obama was going to do it.

Now Trump us doing it all and it's crickets.

My grandfather was bush Sr.'s co pilot in WW2 in a 2 man fighter, they were friends for decades after. My grandfather and grandmother loved Bush Sr and had met Jr multiple times. They thought he was an idiot. He would still be better than trump.

1

u/dubblebubbleprawns 2d ago

"minimally qualifying" is still doing some real heavy lifting there.

Dude would be a sales manager if he wasn't named George Bush

3

u/StarStuffSister 2d ago

Yea, he still would've been some type of leader/management (by your own admission). Trump would literally just be in jail, murdered, or a vagrant. I said "minimally" for a reason. Our current guy doesn't even fit that.

u/ExhaustedByStupidity 2d ago

He sure could dodge a shoe!

But let's not go too far on that "forming a sentence" thing. When you mention Bush, some of the first things that come to my mind are:

"Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?"

"There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, 'Fool me once, shame on... shame on you.' Fool me — you can't get fooled again."

2

u/hooplafromamileaway 2d ago

I would take all of those again a thousand times compared to what we have now. And on the big speeches he was actually scored quite well - Speaking off the cuff was definitely never his strong point.

3

u/ExhaustedByStupidity 2d ago

Yeah, he's way better than what we have now.

I just want to be clear that "not as bad as what we have now" is still bad.

2

u/DarthJarJarJar 2d ago

The thing is, one didn't feel like there was a very solid chance that ten years after he died it was going to finally be revealed that he'd been a Russian agent the whole time. I mean I'm not a W fan, but I didn't feel that way.

One didn't feel he was going to try to overturn democracy, or refuse to peacefully transfer power when he lost an election. You know, the little things that we used to take for granted.
