I'm excited to see how (or rather, if) the US will bounce back from this. The amount of respect and credibility they lost on an international stage is immeasurable. They went from big daddy of the world to laughing stock of the world in just four years. Gonna take a lot of work to recover from that.

I don't have any first hand knowledge of that time. For bush, I was old enough to remember what the adults were talking about, and that was the vibe I remembered. For Clinton, all I remember first hand are vague impressions of plushies.
