Maureen Dowd: George H.W. Bush Called Trump a Curse Word, Threw His Shoe at TV When He Appeared
Breitbart ^ | 5 Dec 2018 | Pam Key

Posted on 12/05/2018 3:17:37 PM PST by detective

Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd said George H.W. Bush called Donald Trump a curse word and threw his shoe at the television when Trump was on.

Dowd said, “I think, you know, that Donald Trump would be incomprehensible to him literally. And even that was 2011, so in our wildest imagination we couldn’t imagine that Trump would be the nominee and that he would, you know, eviscerate H.W.’s dream of Jeb in the White House with two words, ‘low energy.’ All of that was unimaginable.”

So what? Trump might well have done the same when George the Elder was president.

Truth sounds like hate to those who hate truth. Jeb would get tired just reading Trumps schedule.

Sure Maureen, and then he invited Trump to his funeral so he could throw a shoe at him in person.

All us civil people like to throw shoes at televisions.

We are just careful not to do uncivil things.

I’m sure MoDo does exactly the same thing every time she sees the beautiful and alluring Catherine ZJ on any TV screen.

Trump threatens to undo the life’s work of Bush and his Bush League Republicans, The GHW Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA), flooding the country with foreigners in order to steal it from the citizens and subsume it to the UN so he could have his New World Order.

We wouldn’t vote for it, so they are importing people who will.

Trump humilified his low energy son. As a dad, that’s gotta piss you off even if it’s cosmically just.
