Was George W. Bush President on 9/11?

[Tom Joad]

I love this one.

Sure, it's satire, but with the way the right keeps trying to rewrite history.............

On Friday, Donald Trump generated substantial controversy when he asserted that George W. Bush was president at the time of the 9/11 attacks.

“When you talk about George Bush, I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time,” Trump said. “He was president, O.K.?”

Jeb Bush immediately pushed back, calling Trump’s comments “pathetic” and insisting “my brother kept us safe.”

The media jumped on to the burgeoning controversy. According to The New York Times the idea that Bush was president on 9/11 and failed to stop the attack is a “break from the GOP.”

Was George W. Bush president on September 11, 2001? It’s time to settle this once and for all.

It’s true that, in the presidential election held on November 7, 2000, George W. Bush received fewer votes than Al Gore.

But according to the Associated Press, this is a photo of George W. Bush being sworn in as president on January 20, 2001.

Contemporaneous reports suggest that America’s arcane election rules and a favorable Supreme Court ruling handed the election to Bush, even though he lacked popular support.

Calendars from that era indicate that January 20, the day Bush was sworn in as president, occurred some time before September 11.

Of all the documentry evidence of Bush's presidency that exists, the use of a daily brief from Aug 2001 that highlights Bin laden was an excellent choice!

If 9/11 had occurred during a Democratic presidency multi investigations would still be on going.
