Being super pissed off. But I would be lying if I said I had any clue it would be as bad as it turned out to be.
His "Presidency" ended up being a microcosm of his life. No one benefited more from being incompetent than he did. Without his unforgivable incompetence 9-11 would have never happened and he would have been unable to do the harm he did.
As I recall people threw garbage during his inauguration his approvals rating was in the 30s until September 2001. Without 9-11 he is a one term a President, just like his daddy.
