President Bush refers primarily to George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States, who served from 2001 to 2009. His presidency was marked by a focus on conservative ideology, particularly in economic policy, emphasizing tax cuts, deregulation, and a commitment to free-market principles. Bush's economic policies were largely shaped by the events of his administration, including the response to the September 11 attacks and the subsequent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
