Remember when they all called George W. Bush stupid? Turns out a lot of those who trashed Bush back in the early 2000s were actually right on the money. Stupid George W. Bush not only had a Freudian slip up when discussing Ukraine (mentioning Iraq), he also got pranked by two Russian comedians, admitting that he broke the US NATO promise to Gorbachev.
After George P. Bush got clobbered in his runoff election this week, it appears the Bush dynasty is finally done. Thank God.
A pair of well-known Russian pranksters claim to have tricked former U.S. President George W. Bush into speaking to them about the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov posted a brief video to the Russian video sharing site Rutube on Tuesday that appears to show Bush speaking to the duo about the conflict. Kuznetsov and Stolyarov, who are also known as Vovan and Lexus, have made headlines in the past for pranking high-profile individuals including musician Elton John and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
The pair were previously accused of working for the Kremlin, which they denied in remarks to The Guardian in 2016. Bush has been vocal about his opposition to the Russian invasion, calling it the “gravest security crisis on the European continent since World War II” after the first attack in February.
