CNN’s Douglas Brinkley: ‘Nobody’ Wants to See Trump at Bush 41 Funeral
Breitbart ^ | 4 Dec 2018 | Tony Lee

Posted on 12/04/2018 1:57:34 PM PST by detective

CNN’s presidential historian Douglas Brinkley said on Monday evening that nobody attending President George H.W. Bush’s funeral on Wednesday wants to see President Donald Trump.

“Well, I think George Herbert Walker Bush was right. He planned his funeral memorial service right to have President Trump attend,” Brinkley told host Don Lemon. “But let’s be honest. There’s nobody that wants to see President Trump at this memorial service that is going to be there.”

Trump will not speak at the funeral but will reportedly meet privately with the family.

Brinkley mentioned that Trump has been “no friend” of the Bush family since the 1980s.

CNN shows what Trump hating slime balls they are.

The Bush family invited President Trump. Many people are glad the president is attending.

Nobody wants the CNN fake news clowns around ruining the decorum of the funeral.

Really. Will these people just shut up. For one week give it a rest on trying to convince everyone that Trump is a leper.

The Communist News Network must be clairevoyant, being able to decipher the inner feelings of every person at that funeral. Shameful.

Of course had Trump not shown up, they would have bitched about that.

I wonder if CNN ever considers the likelihood that it is laying the ground rules for conservatives the next time a Democrat becomes president?

True. Trump should go and “act Presidential”. and then afterward tweet about it being a “low energy funeral”.
