a)increase taxes.

Explanation:

In the 1988 US presidential election, Bush launched a successful campaign to succeed Reagan as president, defeating his Democratic opponent, Michael Dukakis. International politics was one of the main pillars during the Bush presidency; military operations were carried out in Panama and in the Persian Gulf while the world was changing; the Berlin Wall fell in 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolved two years later. Internally, Bush failed to fulfill one of his promises, specifically, that of not creating new types of taxes and after a fight with Congress, he signed an increase in taxes that Congress finally approved. In the wake of economic concerns, he lost the 1992 election against Bill Clinton.

pepin the short[a] (german: pippin der kurze, french: pépin le bref, c. 714 – 24 september 768) was the king of the franks from 751 until his death. he was the first of the carolingians to become king.[b][2]

the younger son of the frankish prince charles martel and his wife rotrude, pepin's upbringing was distinguished by the ecclesiastical education he had received from the monks of st. denis. succeeding his father as the mayor of the palace in 741, pepin reigned over francia jointly with his elder brother carloman. pepin ruled in neustria, burgundy, and provence, while his brother carloman established himself in austrasia, alemannia and thuringia. the brothers were active in suppressing revolts led by the bavarians, aquitanians, saxons, and the alemanni in the early years of their reign. in 743, they ended the frankish interregnum by choosing childeric iii, who was to be the last merovingian monarch, as figurehead king of the franks.
