Well, it may be unfortunate that he said it. But Trump was right about Bush. George W Bush was absolutely horrible. Bush was a miserable failure as a conservative president.
On the other hand, if you like liberal Republican Presidents who add trillions of dollars to the national debt, then GWB is probably right up your alley!
You will find no bigger critic of Bush than I am. He was a major reason why I left the Republican Party. But Trump wasn't saying Bush was a bad conservative president. He was parroting all the liberal lines about Bush. Evil? Really?
Trump was/is a lifelong liberal and his criticisms of Bush come from that perspective, not that of a conservative.
You know people in TX twice denied GHWB a Senate seat and once a presidential primary victory, but after that it’s been all Bushes all the time. I think they are dying for Jebbie in TX, too uninformed to know what he represents.
