My instance image hosting was probably down. Its up now.
Context?
The image is from the day of 9/11, Bush was in an elementary school in Sarasota, Florida when an advisor told him about the second tower.
Still don’t get it though lol
I’m guessing you aren’t a US-American.
In Year 2000, it was an election year for president of the US. Bush won the state of Florida by a few hundred votes which made him barely have enough electoral votes to become president. They had to recount votes to make sure the votes are counted correctly and the situation even went to the Supreme Court, the highest court in the US. The court ruled in favor of Bush in a 5-4 decision, the judges who sided with him are appointed by former presidents of his party, leading to many opponents of Bush to accusing the Supreme Court of being biased and corrupt. The joke here is that Bush actually send a time traveller to mess with the election process.
Thanks! I’m indeed not from the US, and in 2000 I was too young to actively follow this stuff, thanks!
One of my earliest memories is of my mom taking my brothers and I by SRQ on our way to school so we could see Air Force One, which was parked there at the time before the attacks took place. I remember when it flew over us shortly after getting sent home. Big plane.
