The result is indeed what matters.
The result of Bush junior’s foreign policy is American went from being a stable, secure, prosperous and respected global hegemon with ironclad alliances with everyone who had a reasonable economy, to an isolated power teetering on financial collapse and ensnared in two open ended wars it didn’t know how to win and looked upon with feelings ranging from condescending contempt to bitter hostility by most.
Most countries who experience such a sharp decline required the help of defeat in a major war with one or more peer Great powers to do this.
American under bush Jr managed to do this by having to fake victory in wars with 2 piddling 4th rate failed states.
Indeed, thanks to bush Jr, American has not been great for so long that it has completely forgotten what are the prerequisite of being great, so much of its population could actually buy the ridiculous notion greatness peddled by likes of trump.
