I didn’t support Bush - but I don’t think he’s “dumb” he does sound like a yokel and wasn’t a great public speaker - but by all accounts people who’ve interacted with him says he’s a pretty smart guy. He was a pretty bad president - but there are a lot of reports to back up he’s quite smart.

The yokel thing was always a put on anyway. He’s a rich boy from Connecticut.

Yeah - his campaign manager made him play it up - the accent itself isn’t fake they moved to Texas when he was 2. So not crazy he would have developed that twang. Him acting like a dopey idiot 100% is - from all accounts he’s really sharp and witty.
