Former President George W. Bush is about to have another grandchild to boss him around.
Jenna Bush Hager is expecting her second daughter with husband Henry Hager, she announced Monday on the Today show.
The baby girl, due in August, will join almost 2-year-old sister, Mila.
Bush Hager, 33, revealed that her father already takes orders from his first granddaughter, saying of the 43rd president, He goes by Jefe, which means boss in Spanish.
But really what happens is that Mila just bosses Jefe around. I mean, shes bossy. Shes like, Jefe, sit down. Jefe, tea. Jefe, coffee.
Asked by co-anchor Tamron Hall if she encourages her daughters bossy tendencies, the Today show special correspondent replied yes, saying, Shes precocious and bossy. I like a strong little lady.
Thats a great visual, co-anchor Willie Geist said, Little Mila bossing the one-time leader of the free world."
i like the nickname, “Jefe.”
another weed...
What a kind thing to say. Let me know when you have a daughter or a granddaughter on the way.
Best wishes to all of them. I have to say, Jenna may not think this is so much fun when she has two teenagers ...
Context.
How about “another member of the oligarchy”? Does that make the derisive comment comprehensible?
The mother uses two last names and is proud of her eldest daughter bossing her father, a former US president, around. What does this say about the family’s sense of entitlement and control over others? Clue: it’s their birthright.
For crimpes sake...
EVER been around a two year old? The toddler is learning to talk, is probably the apple of “jefe’s” eye...and he enjoyed playing “kitchen” with her (tea! Coffee!)
I get you don’t like W...but ALL two year olds are ENTITLED to play!
Nah, by that time the 1/128th American Indian Warren grand baby will take office...
Class warfare works on some, I suppose.
Please note that the article named her “Jenna Bush Hager” not “Bush-Hager.” She uses her maiden name as a middle name, like most traditional wives. The article probably used the maiden name in order to let the reader know WHO the article is about.
Have you ever been around a two year old who was being raised to boss adults around? The toddler is not playing so much as learning that her will is triumvirate to others. This is what is being taught in her family.
Oligarchy is a political system. When firmly established it is also a class -the ruling class. An oligarchy does not represent people -it rules them. It is only rational that a member of the oligarchy would raise their children to impose their will upon others.
Some people prefer rulers to representatives. They are typically liberals, democrats and communists.
Well considering I have five children of my own, and one “bossy” 2 and half year old granddaughter...yes.
My four sons NEVER went thru the BossyTwos as they were NOT as verbal until well after three years old. Girls seem to master the language quicker, and their garbled-yet real-commands are funny as opposed to “triumvirate.” I bet little Mila (I like that name a lot!) “fights” her nap time and “demands” her juice box.
My non-ogilarch gbaby EMPHATICALLY tells me “the pink playdoh not da green Mimi!” when playing:-)
Good heavens. Skip the coffee and have a cup of CHILL OUT already.
And that is why we must always keep an eye out for Jenna Bush Hager having a second daughter. /s
PS, our 2nd granddaughter is also due this summer (late July)...she’ll be the baby sis to the PlayDoh boss mentioned above.
Are you a member of the oligarchy?
HEAVY SIGH....
I’m “Pennsylvania” mom...NO oligarchy in the Rust Belt...I’m a PROUD “BitterClinger” though.
Congratulations on the grandchildren! My 3-year-old daughter has a bad case of Triumvirate, too.
“Give it to me! It’s KATHLEEN’S!”
“Pick me UP! I want to go OUTSIDE!”
“Where’s MY jacket? Go get my JACKET!”
She has six older brothers.
Thanks T-C !!!
Can’t believe your youngest is THREE already...time is flying by waaaay too fast.
We giggle at the ogilarchic demands here...but then we do get to “give her back” at pre-set time. “Bug” has her 17 year old Uncle well trained...but then he has said his niece is a “chick magnet” for his HS girlfriends...LOLZ.
