The Era of Bush and Romney Comes To a Close…

The Bush clan previously announced they will not engage in the 2016 presidential race, and the Romney clan have now joined them.

Via ABC – The Republican National Convention in July is going to be missing some of the party’s most recognizable faces. All of the living former Republican nominees for president said they are skipping the Cleveland convention with the exception of Bob Dole, the 1996 GOP nominee.

An aide to Mitt Romney, the 2012 GOP nominee, confirmed to ABC News that he “has no plans to attend the convention.”

Romney has been one of Trump’s most scathing critics. In March, he gave a speech urging the party to reject the real estate mogul, calling him “a phony, a fraud.” The news that he is not attending this year’s convention was first reported by The Washington Post.

On Wednesday, the last two Republican presidents, George W. Bush and his father, George H.W. Bush, also said they had no plans to back Donald Trump, the party’s presumptive nominee. (read more)

“Don’t be so sure. They are still working behind the scenes.”

Exactly. I am glad Trump is still on the campaign trail. He needs to make sure he gets way past the 1237 delegates. This thing is not over yet.

Few people know that Prescott Bush was fined $1 million by the US government after WWII for violating the ‘trading with the enemy’ act. He was also Planned Parenthood's first treasurer.

This is a good thing! The absence of Bushes and Romney at the GOP convention will maximize the crossover vote for Trump in November.

Never underestimate the power of evil to live on!

I bet both she and Bill live to their 90's.

I think you are right. I suspect bill is suffering from something serious like aids or venereal disease and I think that Hillary is hiding the fact that she had a stroke a year ago and is still suffering its effects
