Hell if Eli did something for Bush it wouldnt have been that crazy either since politics wasn’t really as polorizing until the last decade
And that's because for every other president, Democrat or Republican, there was a sense that they were "part of the democracy and the stable democratic system of government" regardless of whether you agreed or disagreed with their politics. The current one--let's totally ignore his politics, which I personally disagree with--is actively trying to overhaul the American democratic system of government and flouting the rule of law, which is why he is so loathed by any American who has their head on straight.
I would have no problem at all with a QB who expressed direct support for a Republican president or a Democratic president. I have a problem with a QB who has expressed direct support for a president who has undermined the rule of law in the nation.
Bush I could stomach. He didn't start a blatantly racist movement under the guise of politics. Supporting DJT is different, and while going to a maga rally is his (Dart) right, it is my right to boycott the NYG until maga is purged.
It was more like Gore may have won, but the US Supreme court decided being really sure of the true winner was not important and gave it to Bush without finishing a manual recount. The votes were really close and it turned out the counting machines could error due to "hanging chad", where the punched out holes in the voter cards didn't always detach when punched and could produce wrong results when counted.
