Can you expand upon what audience you are referring to in context of the "rehabilitation of George Bush"? Political scientists have remained pretty consistent on his image over the last 20 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_rankings_of_preside...

Audience means online communities that I frequent, which is primarily Reddit.

People tend to be nostalgic for the years soon after their birth because to them it seems like a time when everything seemed simple because they were too young to be aware of the world.

Guess which age group has an outsize influence on Reddit?

The average person looks back quite fondly on him in retrospect thanks to the Trump Crime Administration. Even though there are many things Bush has done that were far worse like the Iraq war.
