George W. Bush on Trump presidency: 'I don't like the racism'
The Washington Examiner ^ | February 27, 2017 | Caitlin Yilek

Posted on 02/28/2017 3:21:38 AM PST by kevcol

Former President George W. Bush is criticizing President Donald Trump's first month in office, though he remains optimistic about the future.

"I don't like the racism and I don't like the name-calling and I don't like the people feeling alienated," Bush told People magazine.

"Nobody likes that."

.
.
.
"I didn't feel like speaking out before because I didn't want to complicate the job and I'm not going to this time. However, at the Bush Center we are speaking up."

The Bush Center programs include immigration ceremonies, AIDS prevention programs in Africa and leadership training for Muslim women.

Dear GWB

You are an idiot for helping a media that tore you down.

You are a coward who couldn’t even be bothered to defend yourself, you are a coward who didn’t criticise the terrible obama presidency.

but now, now that America’s very existence is hanging by a thread, you have the nerve to come and out and attack the only person holding it together?

FUGWB, You are dead to me. Please go crawl under a rock and never come back out. EVER.

I don’t understand the man...

...

I understand him. He’s a crooked member of the Uniparty, the ruling class, and always has been.

Every time this hypocrite opens his mouth, I become more convinced there may be something to the theory that he & his Uniparty buddies did 9-11.

At the very least, he welcomed it so he could invade Iraq and kill the guy who dissed Daddy. EIGHT friggin years of a treasonous pResident with a fake SS#, and this scum didn’t say a WORD. There must be a Bushie involved in the PedoGate boy-diddling. (You think he knows all about Daddy and his corrupt CIA?) Or maybe he and Bill were sharing the profits from their joint Haitian “rescue work.” Honestly, there is no telling what he’s trying to hide.

Thank you President Trump for shining the light on these cockroaches. The “NeverTrumper” status has become an excellent litmus test for dirty politicians. And We The People WILL remember in 2018, 2020, and every election thereafter.

Only one thing will be different. People who used to defend you and stick up for you also don’t like you anymore, such as me. Thanks for proving me wrong, RINO.

George W. Bush thinks that Islam is a race.

(Republicans actually voted for this guy.)

You're delusional.

You still think this will end well. I fully expect to see 3rd and 4th generation Hispanics deported in the next 20 or 30 years.

Pre-1965 demographics are coming back, with a vengeance.

White Americans have woken up to the Conservative and Liberal treachery behind the largest invasion in history into their homeland.

Identity politics have arrived....for white people.

There's no coming back from that.

Keep on clucking, Cuckservative.

You and George Will need to get together and come up with a new game plan.

Not to mention the crap he pulled on the (no am not a fan of him) McCain in SC during the primaries.

Ok, Georgie Porgie— you’re going to get it now, pal— from people who WORKED on your f’n campaign. All cowboy hat and argyle socks in penny loafers. Lying bastard, subsidized baseball team owner and all round business loser. That’s who we got... vs. AL freaking Gore, and barely beat that. Just think.

Tone deaf and tongue tied with an abject lack of understanding about the English language— usually associated with a drunk. No clue, here, especially.

Hey George, we’ve known you as an open-borders traitor for years. Now we know just what a prostitute you are, once again.

When he said he’d earned political capital and intended to spend some of it, I wondered what was coming.

All I knew for sure was that it wasn’t going to be good.

And so....

And yet folks voted for George P. still? I am astonished.
