Neither is that.
Yeh, you don't like TR. I get it. But, the "least woke"? That was the statement. He isn't the 'least woke' president.

Age has everything to do with it. If you are some 'grandpa, you just scan this thing on the table to get your menu' whippersnapper and have never seen a hardcopy menu, you won't know what has been lost.

Cool. But, even with TR's racist, imperialist leanings, he did some good things. Other than inspiring 'Big Block of Cheese Day' on WW, what did AJ do?
Show me what AJ did that surpasses national parks.

There were more people who did want the war than didn't. I didn't. I still think Bush should be charged for war crimes. Most Americans were still reeling from 9/11 and saw an enemy they could defeat. All they wanted to do was get up off the mat.
