“Mitt Romney, John McCain, George W. Bush, Bob Dole and George H. W. Bush —”

Too bad about W, but the rest of them can go shiite in their hat.

2 of the Benghazi fighters, that ought to be good.

LOL!

[The_Republic_Of_Maine]

Party leaders House Speaker Paul Ryan, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky

AKA latrine breaks.

[Magnatron]

The should have made some room for Diamond and Silk — not a prominent spot, but one for them somewhere on the list.

[nfldgirl]

Noticed the absence of Pence and Gingrich from the list, yet there is Flynn, Sessions, and Cristie...given that they are supposedly part of the short list for VP. Wouldn’t all of them speak at some point, even the VP?

[The_Republic_Of_Maine]

Too bad about W, but the rest of them can go shiite in their hat.

Imagine how different the USA would be today if W had not refused to allow his AG to investigate the very real and creditable allegations against obama before the D convention.

Starting to see why W was not invited?

[Jane Long]

But the party’s last five presidential nominees — Mitt Romney, John McCain, George W. Bush, Bob Dole and George H. W. Bush — are all absent, in an unusual celebrated move that illustrates much of the party’s people's discomfort with Mr. Trump the Republican Party.

Fixed it :)

[Jane Long]

They can ALL go pound sand. Including W.

I’m thankful they will NOT be speaking.

W wore himself out doing his jive dance at the recent Dallas memorial, anyway.
