If you don't agree with ANYTHING someone does it means you're blinded with emotions about someone and you're having an unfair judgement about him...and about yourself. There's a lot of things you agree with Bush but you won't admit it because you were told not to agree with the man. You know it's true.
Have them as neighbors? Yes please! Better yet, one on each side!! Just think of the skyrocketing property values! Plus I LOVE seeing those two together, makes me think there's hope yet.

@@Nel_34 that war was literally was conducted by the entire government in washington as well as the UK, everyone believed they had WOMD and although they didn't find those exactly (which I do agree was a huge fault), they found chemical weapons and plans for huge nuclear missiles that were from the 90s. Also, one of the worst terrorists in the history of the world was persecuting the iraqi citizens, and we took him out.
Trump unlike Bush isnt a war criminal drunken fail of a president.... as much as i love Trump he is a very bad speaker in 90% of cases but as a president he is much better than this idiot and Obama

@@sandrasalinas9787 W was always going to be much more popular as an ex president. He's got a goofy sense of humor that without any political nonsense to color it, people would love. Jimmy Carter is similar. He wasn't an effective president but he's a good guy and got more done after his term than during it.
Samir Sehgal He has done well for himself post presidency. He’s a charming and funny guy who actually has some very compelling and hard hitting interviews out there where he performs extremely well in those interviews. I didn’t vote for the guy and didn’t love him as president, but I get him as a former president. He has been a good former president and politics aside, I respect the guy.
One of the biggest differences between Bush and Trump is that Bush has a (self-deprecating) sense of humor and a thick skin. The media criticised and ridiculed him quite a bit, but he always took it in stride.
He wasn't at the time he was President. He was complaining about the media making fun of his 20 year old daughter. Now days the media is making fun of Trump's 10 year old son. Trump is really a troll, he uses the media's headlines and tactics against them. Not fan of either man, but Trump is way smarter than Bush, way.
Don't be so sure... Bush left the country in huge debt and started the failed War on Terrorism. He left the country in crisis and we are still recovering from it. You're also forgetting that the Republicans had a tighter grip on what Bush did/said than they have on Trump, plus Bush didn't have the platform(social media) that Trump has. Don't get it twisted, everything that Trump says and does is carefully planned with the intention of evoking public outrage. Bush was just pawn in the hands of his political party, and comes off as a genuine ditz. Trump is way smarter than people give him credit for(smart enough to be self made billionaire), that's why he won the election, not because half of the country are ''idiots''. And until people realize that our country will keep losing. The people who voted for Trump(or didn't vote at all) are not all idiots(it's actually pretty moronic to think like that). There are people who voted twice for Obama that ended up voting for Trump, because they felt let down by Obama's cabinet. TBH, i knew that we(by ''we'' i mean America) were losing the election when Hillary got nominated. For fuck's sakes, she was calling out Putin whenever the opportunity would arise. Don't get me wrong, we are all thinking those things about Putin, but what world leader runs their mouth like that? The answer is no one, the thought never leaves their mouth for a reason! No one smart wants a war with Russia...they have nukes, plus they hate us more than they hate their own president, so... There's nothing to gain from a war with Russia, only a lot to lose. Face it, we were forced to choose between two unfit candidates, and in the end it was America that lost.
Which one? xD Don't forget Bush and Trump were both born with silver spoons in their mouths. I'm a simple man, a million will do nicely...if only my daddy was rich lol
U and me both. I read his mom’s book. I come from a large family and we didn’t have money. Seems to me that the Bush kids were raised much like families without money. Sounds weird I know but if any of us, me and my siblings screwed up, we had to pay the consequences. When Bush got busted for drinking and driving… his parents left him in jail. That’s exactly what my Mom woulda done.
This is why I voted for this guy the first time around - he's just so lovable and charismatic! But I learned my lesson, and it applies to friendships, romantic and work relationships, etc.: just because you like a person's personality doesn't mean they're right for the position.
Jaundiced Jape I applaud your attitude, we all make mistakes and it's O.K., as long as we learn from them. I wish more of your compatriots were like you, the world wouldn't suffer at your government's hands then!
Cheers man - the more I find out about Bush the more I realize I never got to know the person. The person is GREAT the things he did were not. And I'm sad that the fun loving human sitting here was also the person who did so much harm to the States. I at least understand WHY people voted for him though. Up here in Canada, we didn't learn much about who he was. Just what he did and how it would effect us. But one thing I always, ALWAYS said about him, because it was so clear from his legislation is no matter how many issues he has with public speaking...he is clever as hell. He is SMART, and it's VERY stupid to underestimate him. I'm glad though that he's using his time out of office to raise money for the vets he created. That is seriously something. I would hope that this goes further, that he really gets a fire under his ass and starts working even harder for those vets - because the worse things get for everyone, vets are going to be in an even more terrible position. Get on it Bush - you're clearly a loving funny guy - use your powers for good this time.
Remember when people thought he was stupid? Compared to the current president he’s Stephen Hawking Edit- this was written in July 2020. By ‘current president’ I was referring to Trump, not Biden.
Stupid? Nah Harmful president? Yes Trump is the bottom of the barrel, though. George Bush actually knew what he was doing, no matter how backwards his policies were
Gosh I look back on my days as a stupid child thinking he was the worst president...... my innocence was whisked away by Trump who showed me that I hadn't seen nothing yet
Amon Ra oh ya but at least saddam one of the best president of the Arab world is gone he literally thinks that he did something to help Iraq they could’ve lifted sanctions or something but nahhh then they say orange man bad
@Amon Ra Indeed there were obvious signs of chemical & biological weapons in Iraq. Even before 2003, the Osirak Nuclear Reactor was hit by Israelis in the 1980s. George HW Bush drove the Iraqi army out of Kuwait, not going into Baghdad. President Clinton has repeatedly ordered a cruise missile attack on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction facilities. Even before September 11th, US jets were doing sorties over Iraq territory. Obviously, it was a dangerous regime & Saddam had terrorist connections, this is an undeniable fact. Couldn't imagine an Iraq that entered the Arab Spring with Hussein. In addition, obvious evidence of chemical & biological weapons has been found in Iraq, contrary to what many people think. The lethal Ricin gas was found in the cave camp of the Ansar Al-Islam terrorist organization near the town of Sargat, close to Halabja city. Relatives of the city where Saddam killed his own civilians with lethal gas. If I'm not mistaken, in the first weeks of the 2003 invasion, this cave camp was captured after a few days of conflict with the local Peshmerga force and US Special forces team. Arabic documents, materials, NBC clothing, antidotes & traces of potassium chloride have been observed on how to make Ricin gas inside of the facility. The camp where Colin Powell projected satellite photos on the screen during his February presentation for UN. In addition, Ansar Al Islam began receiving funding & support from Al-Qaeda shortly after 9/11. The organization has ties with Zarqawi & Bin Laden & has been trained to fight like the PKK, like the Chechens on the mountain, as opposed to fighting in the desert with coalition forces in the open area. As is already known, the geography of Northern & Northeastern Iraq is very difficult & too high. Think about it, this is just one terrorist camp that has been detected. In my opinion, if the Grand National Assembly of Turkey to allow the Americans to enter Northern Iraq in 2003 it gave more to this series of operations camp was gaining momentum, fast action and would be able to do. But when the northern leg of the invasion was stillborn, time was lost, & perhaps the "not found" chemical & biological weapons + WMDs were either taken out of the country, or buried, or destroyed. This is clearly stated in the official Duelfer report, those who aren't lazy enough can read hundreds of pages if they want about missing WMDs. After the invasion, after taking the necessary intimidation, Gaddafi stopped advancing his own WMD program. In 2007, the nuclear reactor, which was developed with North Korean scientists in the Al-Khabar region of Syria, was wiped out by Israel in a secret air operation with abundant electronic mixing. In February of this year, the Turkish Armed Forces bombed the Syrian regime's Chemical Warfare facility near Aleppo with its F-16s while carrying out operations in Idlib area to secure its borders. In conclusion, Iraq, Syria, Iran, North Korea. All these regimes are on the axis of evil, regardless of the mistakes made in the wars, the important developments that took place. Their armies, men power must be destroyed & their country's territory must occupied by the armies of the civilized world. Their people must be liberated from these tyrannical governments. But who will replace them after their leader dies? This is a huge problem, of course, as in Saddam's example. Differences of religions, sects & races should be studied well if a Western country is to invade these countries. ..and especially if we're talking about the ME region. But it's very obvious that no matter how well planned, no matter how superior technology you have, no matter how many "freedom fighters" you have to use for proxy wars, this is a quagmire. There is no end in sight
Trump went on Colbert before the 2016 election, and he was still insecure back then and couldn't take a joke. He's even more insecure now. He doesn't have a sense of humor.
@@Paofreeofmind Bush is a disgusting war criminal animal by proxy, because he just sat in the chair and let the PNAC run the war machine. That's the actual deep state all the slobbering dumbfucks in the MAGA movement are obsessed with- they vote for them. BUT. Bush was still a human being and I believe he is kind of tortured because he knows what he was on some level. Trump is a soulless narcissistic shell of hatred. He's relentlessly stupid, uncurious, uninteresting, and just generally the worst human being that has ever lived. Turning Bush into a sympathetic figure is a seriously impressive display of how terrible Trump is.
A good and respectful friend can bring the best out for you.❤❤❤ Wonderful interview, full of laughter, honesty and good energy between Jimmy and George!!!! Thank you !
@@gamerprecario That's a fallacy you dump, when he is criticized for his crimes, try to defend him instead of just saying "well what about 'x' ", he is a criminal, so is Saddam Hussein, and the doers of 9/11, the difference those were killed, this guy is being celebrated
Frank Tranks you’re mistaken stop spreading fake information. Trumps wife is actively trying to stop human trafficking and more children have been found in the past few months than in previous years.
I love that he turned his new found hobby into proceeds for a foundation that he likes to support. Honorable! He’s funny and can not only acknowledge but laugh at his mistakes. That’s a rare feat nowadays I feel like.
This isn’t an act. He is such a great and personable man. I have a pic with him at an event when he was POTUS. He was speaking to someone and I had a friend take a photo of me with him in the background. He turned and saw the camera, grabbed my shoulder and photobombed me. Then he cracked up.
At least he only photobombed you . He actually really bombed and killed others But he was personable when he ordered their deaths , what a great guy . You are an ill informed idiot

@Aslan T Vorlon ... I can be more specific than that as I am sure Donald Trump will be remembered as the worst president in American history....a combination of incompetence and corruption never before seen to this degree.
His artwork is actually really great for what it is. I acfuslly love the way he uses colors and takes a lot of liberties that give it a messy kind of look. But the color and contrast makes some pretty nice paintings.
@@RobustNut A war he started .... for no reason . How would you like it if the rest of the world invaded America for no reason ... killed everyone .... and then said it was war get over it

You can say Jeffrey Dahmer had charisma too, doesn't mean you like him... I was a huge anti-Bush guy in the day, and now in the time of Trump I actually miss him...
Great guy and very funny. Bad war and I'm sure he feels that he owes the vets a great deal of gratitude and I'm glad he is doing something for them. I worked one of his speaking engagements in his last year in office and he did have a room set to meet with fallen veterans families and I was told that he did that every where he went.
@@joshuameader8898 Sadly a lot of young American soldiers not to mention the countless citizens that were killed in Iraq so Haliburton could take their oil. The first Iraq War When GH Bush was Potus was a just war. They tried to take over Kuwait. The G W war was for revenge and oil.
I agree. After watching this interview with him, I have so much respect for him. I didn't like him as a president, but damn, he's so likable as a person!
He doesn't need any uppers with that amount of energy! Probably couldn't keep up with him after a few lines of blow. Although it'd legit be fun to drop a few tabs of acid or do some shrooms with him.
Jurg Nobs No, the main reason people thought Bush was stupid is that comedians kept telling them he was. I bet most people have spent more time watching Will Ferrell as Bush than they have listening to the real Bush talk.
HE INDIRECTLY ADMITTED THAT THERE ARE ALIENS...... OMG! Kimmel asked him if he could answer if asked the question about Aliens. He said he couldn't. AND.... KIMMEL ASKED ARE THERE REALLY BIG SECRETS THAT HE HAS TO KEEP AND HE SAID "YES" WITH NO HESITATION. Wow.... I'm weirdly excited about this, haha.
I love this man for a lots of reasons, his attack to Afghanistan actually was a life changing for my people. Media doesn’t likes to talk about Afghanistan before 2001 but I was a very young kid in elementary school every day I was walking 14 miles for school now there is a high school right behind my door, we had only one university for the entire country and Taliban and Al-Qaieda made that university like a Islamic school but now we have more 400 universities in Afghanistan, we didn’t had food to eat , we didn’t know what is electricity, a lots of people out of Kabul the capital of Afghanistan didn’t know how a car looks like but now from every 10 families 8 of them has at least one car and they have access to all media’s around the world and they they are watching American TVs . I love this man much respect ✊
Many of the politicians are. I remember being stunned at how funny and warm Bob Dole was out of office. He was like the grim reaper when running for President. Although I disagreed with him on most political issues, I always thought George W. and his Dad possessed basic human decency and genuinely cared about people. Sadly, I don't think our current Orangutang in Chief possesses any of that.
He probably is a little more mellow because the office is stressful, but the media just wanted to paint him as a terrible evil person for their agenda. Nobody changes that much late in life.
That’s a big reason people like myself love G W Bush. The critics tore him apart for the his mispronunciations of words and the quirky looks he’d give. The man is anything but stupid. Acting imo he was so brilliant that he convinced half the US that he was an idiot. After having two stuck up, pompous Presidents follow W, people are appreciating his sense of humor more finally. EDIT: In response to Richard Espinoza - I’m a republican and I was very much against going into Iraq. It’s your precious Obama who ramped up our presence in the Middle East, further destabilizing the region. Bush left in two countries. Which is terrible. Obama, the crusader for democracy that the press made him out to be, left office with our military in six middle eastern nations.
You may don't know but bush actually saved millions of lives all around the world with greatest achievement so far (pepfar) Bush's PEPFAR has saved over 17 million lives.

From a UK guy born 1993. This man was president in my formative years. I have yet to see a man with more compassion; enthusiasm and genuine love for his country. Mistakes and gaffes were made, but this man will eventually go down as one of the top 10 presidents you have had. Obvious mistakes were made and 9/11 was missed, yet the war against terrorism was formed by GBW and supported by us. We will continue to support our US allies. Best, Mark x

@Dorset Deb Exactly dude. As a lefty, I'm disappointed by people saying "He's not trump". Trump hasn't started a war yet. Bush is the worse president for now. End of story. *Edit: I guess we'll see where this Iran thing goes :/
How did I miss this all these years. What a great interview. History will see him as a great President and a wonderful human being who can laugh at himself!
What I remember of POTUS G. W. Bush was the days ahead after 9/11. I never saw a leader stand next to the people like that during such chaos. Those moments will live within my memories forever.
Obama could make fun of himself. Happily came on Kimmel to read some mean tweets about himself. "That's pretty good" he said to at least one of them. Pretty sure he's not the only one, by a long shot. Just that the bar's gotten so low lately, even basic joke-taking ability has become a luxury...
@Michael - And I said "not the only one, _by a long shot."_ Unless you want to say Bush and Obama were the few, and nobody else had the ability. Considering most presidents are also people, I find it unlikely that only a few did. So my overall point was, "pretty sure a significant portion of them could do that, at least in the right circumstances". And what better circumstances than a talk show host eagerly kissing your ass while helping to wipe your hands clean of the blood of half a million innocents? ^^
@I Insult the prophet It's a Christian country that invades other countries and kills people from other countries for decades so from the viewpoint of the rest of the world this Christian country is definitely very dangerous. There are other atrocities, too. A horrible religion like Islam, or genocides in Africa. But this is no contest. You can't excuse Bush's war crimes with other crimes.
I just watched a ton of Trump rally interviews to the point my brain was rotting, so seeing this was soooooo refreshing and reminded myself again that not all republicans are like Trump supporters. I actually really like Bush and the fact he and his wife are friends with the Obamas
I voted for him and while I don't 100% agree with everything he did, he is a good, decent man who put the country first, just like I feel Obama did. I think he took the job seriously, but I love that he doesn't take himself so seriously. He and his entire family are a class act!
@Kilo Mintoni You also got bonus points for mentioning president Hoover. I'm afraid most American don't realize Hoover was a president, much less he was president when the great depression started (I didn't realize the depression started when he was president and my undergraduate degree at Florida State was political science).

Don't get it twisted, everything that Trump says and does is carefully planned with the intention of evoking public outrage. Bush was just pawn in the hands of his political party, and comes off as a genuine ditz. Trump is way smarter than people give him credit for(smart enough to be self made billionaire), that's why he won the election, not because half of the country are ''idiots''. And until people realize that our country will keep losing. The people who voted for Trump(or didn't vote at all) are not all idiots(it's actually pretty moronic to think like that). There are people who voted twice for Obama that ended up voting for Trump, because they felt let down by Obama's cabinet. TBH, i knew that we(by ''we'' i mean America) were losing the election when Hillary got nominated. For fuck's sakes, she was calling out Putin whenever the opportunity would arise. Don't get me wrong, we are all thinking those things about Putin, but what world leader runs their mouth like that? The answer is no one, the thought never leaves their mouth for a reason! No one smart wants a war with Russia...they have nukes, plus they hate us more than they hate their own president, so... There's nothing to gain from a war with Russia, only a lot to lose. Face it, we were forced to choose between two unfit candidates, and in the end it was America that lost.
Which one? xD Don't forget Bush and Trump were both born with silver spoons in their mouths. I'm a simple man, a million will do nicely...if only my daddy was rich lol
texan vs new york
He has a great sense of humor and timing. I'm impressed.
Have you seen the clip of him nodding to al gore at the debates? That clip is genuinely hilarious
He was a cool guy in a tough situatiin!
U and me both. I read his mom’s book. I come from a large family and we didn’t have money. Seems to me that the Bush kids were raised much like families without money. Sounds weird I know but if any of us, me and my siblings screwed up, we had to pay the consequences. When Bush got busted for drinking and driving… his parents left him in jail. That’s exactly what my Mom woulda done.
This is why I voted for this guy the first time around - he's just so lovable and charismatic! But I learned my lesson, and it applies to friendships, romantic and work relationships, etc.: just because you like a person's personality doesn't mean they're right for the position.
Jaundiced Jape I applaud your attitude, we all make mistakes and it's O.K., as long as we learn from them.
I wish more of your compatriots were like you, the world wouldn't suffer at your government's hands then!
Cheers man - the more I find out about Bush the more I realize I never got to know the person. The person is GREAT the things he did were not. And I'm sad that the fun loving human sitting here was also the person who did so much harm to the States. I at least understand WHY people voted for him though. Up here in Canada, we didn't learn much about who he was. Just what he did and how it would effect us. But one thing I always, ALWAYS said about him, because it was so clear from his legislation is no matter how many issues he has with public speaking...he is clever as hell. He is SMART, and it's VERY stupid to underestimate him. I'm glad though that he's using his time out of office to raise money for the vets he created. That is seriously something. I would hope that this goes further, that he really gets a fire under his ass and starts working even harder for those vets - because the worse things get for everyone, vets are going to be in an even more terrible position.
Get on it Bush - you're clearly a loving funny guy - use your powers for good this time.
you needed a presidential election to figure that out?

"The best kind of humour is when you make fun of yourself"
Goerge w bush
Amon Ra - if you resent humor on a show with Jimmy Kimmel, you’re watching the wrong show.
Amon Ra ya the country invaded was very peaceful and full of saints... lol
Amon Ra oh ya but at least saddam one of the best president of the Arab world is gone he literally thinks that he did something to help Iraq they could’ve lifted sanctions or something but nahhh then they say orange man bad
@Amon Ra Indeed there were obvious signs of chemical & biological weapons in Iraq. Even before 2003, the Osirak Nuclear Reactor was hit by Israelis in the 1980s. George HW Bush drove the Iraqi army out of Kuwait, not going into Baghdad. President Clinton has repeatedly ordered a cruise missile attack on Iraq's weapons of mass destruction facilities. Even before September 11th, US jets were doing sorties over Iraq territory. Obviously, it was a dangerous regime & Saddam had terrorist connections, this is an undeniable fact. Couldn't imagine an Iraq that entered the Arab Spring with Hussein.
In addition, obvious evidence of chemical & biological weapons has been found in Iraq, contrary to what many people think. The lethal Ricin gas was found in the cave camp of the Ansar Al-Islam terrorist organization near the town of Sargat, close to Halabja city. Relatives of the city where Saddam killed his own civilians with lethal gas. If I'm not mistaken, in the first weeks of the 2003 invasion, this cave camp was captured after a few days of conflict with the local Peshmerga force and US Special forces team. Arabic documents, materials, NBC clothing, antidotes & traces of potassium chloride have been observed on how to make Ricin gas inside of the facility. The camp where Colin Powell projected satellite photos on the screen during his February presentation for UN. In addition, Ansar Al Islam began receiving funding & support from Al-Qaeda shortly after 9/11. The organization has ties with Zarqawi & Bin Laden & has been trained to fight like the PKK, like the Chechens on the mountain, as opposed to fighting in the desert with coalition forces in the open area. As is already known, the geography of Northern & Northeastern Iraq is very difficult & too high. Think about it, this is just one terrorist camp that has been detected. In my opinion, if the Grand National Assembly of Turkey to allow the Americans to enter Northern Iraq in 2003 it gave more to this series of operations camp was gaining momentum, fast action and would be able to do. But when the northern leg of the invasion was stillborn, time was lost, & perhaps the "not found" chemical & biological weapons + WMDs were either taken out of the country, or buried, or destroyed. This is clearly stated in the official Duelfer report, those who aren't lazy enough can read hundreds of pages if they want about missing WMDs.
After the invasion, after taking the necessary intimidation, Gaddafi stopped advancing his own WMD program. In 2007, the nuclear reactor, which was developed with North Korean scientists in the Al-Khabar region of Syria, was wiped out by Israel in a secret air operation with abundant electronic mixing. In February of this year, the Turkish Armed Forces bombed the Syrian regime's Chemical Warfare facility near Aleppo with its F-16s while carrying out operations in Idlib area to secure its borders.
In conclusion, Iraq, Syria, Iran, North Korea. All these regimes are on the axis of evil, regardless of the mistakes made in the wars, the important developments that took place. Their armies, men power must be destroyed & their country's territory must occupied by the armies of the civilized world. Their people must be liberated from these tyrannical governments. But who will replace them after their leader dies? This is a huge problem, of course, as in Saddam's example. Differences of religions, sects & races should be studied well if a Western country is to invade these countries. ..and especially if we're talking about the ME region.
But it's very obvious that no matter how well planned, no matter how superior technology you have, no matter how many "freedom fighters" you have to use for proxy wars, this is a quagmire. There is no end in sight
Me mastered it
Can anyone possibly imagine Donald Trump joking around with Jimmy on Jimmy's show?
Trump went on Colbert before the 2016 election, and he was still insecure back then and couldn't take a joke. He's even more insecure now. He doesn't have a sense of humor.
There are a TON of differences between Trump and Bush...
@@Paofreeofmind Bush is a disgusting war criminal animal by proxy, because he just sat in the chair and let the PNAC run the war machine. That's the actual deep state all the slobbering dumbfucks in the MAGA movement are obsessed with- they vote for them. BUT. Bush was still a human being and I believe he is kind of tortured because he knows what he was on some level. Trump is a soulless narcissistic shell of hatred. He's relentlessly stupid, uncurious, uninteresting, and just generally the worst human being that has ever lived. Turning Bush into a sympathetic figure is a seriously impressive display of how terrible Trump is.

@@brevis914 And its called "War" for a reason. Hindsight is always 20/20. Everyone forgets that after 9/11 we took a "forward leaning" posture.

Many of the politicians are. I remember being stunned at how funny and warm Bob Dole was out of office. He was like the grim reaper when running for President. Although I disagreed with him on most political issues, I always thought George W. and his Dad possessed basic human decency and genuinely cared about people. Sadly, I don't think our current Orangutang in Chief possesses any of that.
He probably is a little more mellow because the office is stressful, but the media just wanted to paint him as a terrible evil person for their agenda. Nobody changes that much late in life.

Acting imo he was so brilliant that he convinced half the US that he was an idiot. After having two stuck up, pompous Presidents follow W, people are appreciating his sense of humor more finally.
EDIT: In response to Richard Espinoza - I’m a republican and I was very much against going into Iraq. It’s your precious Obama who ramped up our presence in the Middle East, further destabilizing the region. Bush left in two countries. Which is terrible. Obama, the crusader for democracy that the press made him out to be, left office with our military in six middle eastern nations.
@??? Just curious-why would you watch a show featuring a guest that you despise?
Not the greatest president, but even greater personality.
I agree
You may don't know but bush actually saved millions of lives all around the world with greatest achievement so far (pepfar)
Bush's PEPFAR has saved over 17 million lives.
He helped other countries to defeat disease's ike HIV/AIDS and Malaria
Bush's tax cuts had very positive impact that even obama continued his supply chian economics
He didn't wrote a single speech in his life bcz of his disability
@@classicalliberal4220 nice
He also stated 2 wars with no purpose and lies about winning the wars
Really good guy indeed
@@aj69needshelp91 I’m curious, why would you watch a show featuring a guest that you despise? And what were you expecting on a talk show led by a comedian?
@@acricucci9760 why do you think I know who the bring in and when they bring him in?
I'm fine with the show I hate this "celebrity" war crimminal thst tge brought for this episode
Lost it at "The art community wasn't exactly my base of support."
His warmth and genuine good humor make him a true standout among our reptilian overlords.
MacGarnagal that’s called Texan
Congratulations! You have won the Internet
🤦♂️and I also bet you believe in a flat earth

George Bush’s sense of humor is one of my favorites. Take away all that president stuff and he’s just a chillax dude that paints .
And murders internationally 😂😂😂😂😂
He’s a war criminal
@@leftxbrizzy obama was worse though :(. Thank goodness we have trump now!
Ya know, part of me wants to hate him but his whole personality is like that lazy stoner/party animal who got pressured to join the family business. Doesn't mean he's not sort of a scumbag implicitly, but the global elite would've pulled it off anyway as far as the war crimes
@Heer Kommando Lol dude I don't like Obama or Bush, for whatever reason you're just trying to be combatative. I understand they're all just puppets, minus Trump that is and obviously some of the earlier presidents
weird moment when your ex doesn't seem so bad..
Councilman Les Wynan u r
that's his point
@Councilman Les Wynan as if you give a damn about those people... I pretty sure you were like most Trumpsters all for the killing of those people until Bush spoke out against Trump...
Tell that to the million Iraqis that passed away because of this criminal.
@Jeffrey F
'Hindsight"? The UN under Hans Blix who investigated the case in Iraq concluded that Iraq destroyed their WMD.. he lied like Americans do often to start a new cruel war.
From a UK guy born 1993. This man was president in my formative years. I have yet to see a man with more compassion; enthusiasm and genuine love for his country. Mistakes and gaffes were made, but this man will eventually go down as one of the top 10 presidents you have had. Obvious mistakes were made and 9/11 was missed, yet the war against terrorism was formed by GBW and supported by us. We will continue to support our US allies. Best, Mark x
back when a republican president could go on liberal news, and they could have honest conversation and joke about things without offending anyone. try that in 2020
This was only three years ago
Ur white arent u
No kidding!
1. This is from 2017, Trumps second year in office. 2. This is a talk show, not a news show.
SJ B this was 3 years ago pal
not the best president, but a damn good ex-president.
Yup, imma democrat and i agree
I feel like I could have a beer with him.
He was a horrible president but he would be nice to have a conversation with
I think we can say that about all ex presidents. trump will be the exception when he is gone.

It's nice to go back to memories. Great episode and interesting conversation 👍 Jimmy, thank you for sharing.
Such a feeling of comfort to see Kimmel, a true Democrat, have an amazing laugh with Bush.
Went from most hated president to people laughing at his jokes smh
We're living with the alternative
Trump made him into a saint!
Vincent Obama stoke that title bud
What if I told you he was never that bad, but the media portrayed him as very bad and you're not yet wise enough to understand that, Neo...
@Dorset Deb Exactly dude. As a lefty, I'm disappointed by people saying "He's not trump". Trump hasn't started a war yet. Bush is the worse president for now. End of story. *Edit: I guess we'll see where this Iran thing goes :/
Probably the last Republican we'll ever see who can actually laugh at himself.
Most genuine republicans I think can. Not the ones who have gone over to Trump Republicanism. Mitt Romney I could see laughing at himself.
@@guyincognito9831 true mitt romney is actually a decent man.
@@chiviak8234 He’s a turd
@@prometheustv6558 Naw just not a good president. While trump is just not fit for president.
@@chiviak8234 And yet Trump is President and Romney is not.
43 has come to charm me greatly. And thank you for your service.
Stop the hate, you may dislike his political views but right now most of us can agree that George W. Bush is actually a pretty funny guy.
Yeah, a pretty funny guy and a bloodthirsty warmonger.
who killed a million Iraqis :)
He has not been convicted of a crime. Are you familiar with the justice system?
okay, he's probably responsible. it's hard to convict a president anyway
I was talking about Bill Cosby.
He seems like a cool dude to conspire the beginning of an oil war with
da noony it was his VP lol
x x he had no intention to until Cheney convinced him... he was only going in on Afghanistan like he should’ve under the advice of Powell
Nolan Kahler no.
Rumsfeld and Cheney more powerfull?
This is not the president but as a citizen, but still Bush regardless our opinion.
top definition of "George W. Bush" on urban dictionary:
One of the best stand-up comedians ever who accidentally ended up in politics.
Family pressure made him enter politics. If he did enter the entertainment industry he would be a great hit
He’s seriously the funniest man. When he dodged that shoe…..priceless
How did I miss this all these years. What a great interview. History will see him as a great President and a wonderful human being who can laugh at himself!
I like how the president takes the jokes in the best possible way. Very nice of him.
He's also used of taking lifes of innocent people
@Shav God Bless George Bush
@@aidandevlin2298 Allah bless George bush
God is just, trust that Bush will get what he deserves
Président?
The more he is getting older the more he looks like his father.
What I remember of POTUS G. W. Bush was the days ahead after 9/11. I never saw a leader stand next to the people like that during such chaos. Those moments will live within my memories forever.
Whoa dude this comment legitimately just made me cry. Heavy
and then you remember that he did 9/11
And what about those millions iraqis he murdered?
Siyaad BarreJR don’t worry Allah will punish bush, Saddam was a great man and leader, may Allah have mercy.
Delta A. Olympus fascist Islam
Such a great interview. GW and Kimmel could have their own sitcom.
Love him or hate him he’s one of the few presidents that can poke fun at himself
Obama could make fun of himself. Happily came on Kimmel to read some mean tweets about himself. "That's pretty good" he said to at least one of them.
Pretty sure he's not the only one, by a long shot. Just that the bar's gotten so low lately, even basic joke-taking ability has become a luxury...
@@hazukichanx408 he said one of the few, not the only one.
@Michael - And I said "not the only one, _by a long shot."_
Unless you want to say Bush and Obama were the few, and nobody else had the ability. Considering most presidents are also people, I find it unlikely that only a few did. So my overall point was, "pretty sure a significant portion of them could do that, at least in the right circumstances". And what better circumstances than a talk show host eagerly kissing your ass while helping to wipe your hands clean of the blood of half a million innocents? ^^
I Insult the prophet Same goes for Christianity, too.
@I Insult the prophet It's a Christian country that invades other countries and kills people from other countries for decades so from the viewpoint of the rest of the world this Christian country is definitely very dangerous.
There are other atrocities, too. A horrible religion like Islam, or genocides in Africa. But this is no contest. You can't excuse Bush's war crimes with other crimes.
Americans have a short term memory

Especially you, Ronnie

Somehow I just can't see Trump doing this post-presidency
That’s cause he won’t once/if he loses the election. He’s too prideful
dont worry we will find out in 4 weeks when he loses
doubt, hella trump shows finna start
trump would be first president to defect to Russia or flee to a country that doesn't have Extradition treaty with USA.
He will be doing this in Fox.
I just watched a ton of Trump rally interviews to the point my brain was rotting, so seeing this was soooooo refreshing and reminded myself again that not all republicans are like Trump supporters. I actually really like Bush and the fact he and his wife are friends with the Obamas
I voted for him and while I don't 100% agree with everything he did, he is a good, decent man who put the country first, just like I feel Obama did. I think he took the job seriously, but I love that he doesn't take himself so seriously. He and his entire family are a class act!
@Kilo Mintoni ???
@Kilo Mintoni lol. At least we both agree Trump is the worst. Focus on what we can agree on.
@Kilo Mintoni You also got bonus points for mentioning president Hoover. I'm afraid most American don't realize Hoover was a president, much less he was president when the great depression started (I didn't realize the depression started when he was president and my undergraduate degree at Florida State was political science). We need to understand our history better.
💯
@@lanceross1035 you clearly do if you think "putting the country first" is a good thing and not historically a threat to every other country, especially those already in the harshest conditions

when Bush gets older,he became more and more like his father Bush senior.
give him glasses, he'll look like his old man
Fool me once shame on you

Fool me,.... Fool me once you can't get fooled again! lol

Fool me twice, piss on you.
He said later that he knew what it was, but as he was saying it, he thought of how the "Shame on me" part would be used by the media.
