Cartoonist remembers 'Bush the humiliator'
Cartoonist Garry Trudeau, who has skewered politicians for decades in his comic strip Doonesbury, tells Rolling Stone magazine that he remembers Yale classmate George Bush as “just another sarcastic preppy who gave people nicknames and arranged for keg deliveries”.
Trudeau attended Yale University with Bush in the late 1960s and served with him on a dormitory social committee.
“Even then, he had clearly awesome social skills,” Trudeau said. “He could also make you feel extremely uncomfortable…He was extremely skilled at controlling people and outcomes in that way.
"Little bits of perfectly-placed humiliation.”
