I always wonder how Gore might have acted in response to 9/11.

[-] Zorque@kbin.social 27 points 9 months ago

Based on after-the-fact reports, it may never have happened.

Maybe that's just exposure to all the conspiracy theories, though, I dunno if he would have acted any differently than Bush did to the intelligence reports.

I meant before 9/11, sorry for not making that clear :)

They had intelligence that terrorists from Al-Queda were training and planning for an attack, hijacking commercial planes.

Bush et al did next to nothing with that intel, at best.

It's questionable if it'd have even happened had gore been at the desk, y'know, because he'd have probably actually read the imminent attack report about the plot before it happened.

True dat. He wasn't part of the cabal. That's also why he wasn't elected, in spite of winning. Just like Hillary.
