What exactly do you expect based no some of the things he said? Donald Trump said Bush was to blame for 9/11. That’s beyond typical political attacks during a campaign. It was designed obviously to troll Jeb Bush and make him wine (which he did...instead of responding forcefully he wined “don’t pick on my family!” ... embarrassingly weak and typical of his campaign) but that is still below the belt and is not easily forgotten.

Their behavior is unfortunate in a time like this, but at the same time, very understandable.

It would be a state funeral at the Capitol so the sitting President would in fact be there.

Was PDJT not invited, or did he choose not to go, sending Melania instead as the current FLOTUS? I think that is customary, though I agree there’s not a dime’s difference among the Bush, Clinton, and Obama tribes.

trump was right , the warnings were in Bush 43’s daily briefs. the reason he won is because he actually fought instead of pretending to battle in a campaign..

My favorite Epistle for such occasion is 1 Corinthians 15:51-58.

All the Bushes and the Clintons and the Obamas when they pass on, will be treated as the low lifes they were & are. The Bushes, however will not end up in jail, disgraced.

The Clintons & the Obamas...stay tuned.....methinks McCabe, Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Holder, Lynch, etc., are about to sing out loud to cover their own butts from serving prison time. Dropping dime on the Clintons and Obamas will soon be in vogue!!!

Both Carters and both Clintons attended Ladybird’s funeral———I don’t know what the custom is.

Beautiful church, three generations of close knit family and warring dignitaries, all together, today in Houston. Always fascinating to view the relational movements of all.

I haven’t recognized granddaughter, Barbara Bush, yet. Jenna Bush read at the podium.

Considering the bad blood It was more appropriate to send his sans égal wife

No they were not - nothing that specific. You are recycling the old far Left-wing talking points long we fought tooth and nail here years ago. There was also the Gorelick Wall, etc.

Sorry, I can't get excited about Barbara Bush or her family.

You should read what Roger Stone said about her, and it was all true.

Perhaps...if he had been there that is probably what the media would have made the story about instead of the funeral itself...there is nothing sacred to the media.

it was a general warning, but the field report was ignored from the Phoenix field office none the less.

i think sending melania was the right move. this is the dying embers of political dynasties in this country, no need to spike the football...

Sorry, I’m watching my recording, and I’m behind. Barbara reading in Texan. Very nice. She has always been the tiniest thing.

I remember now that President Trump said he did not want to be a distraction...and I’ll bet that, unlike the lowlifes Barry & Bubba, he’s not at the golf course while the service is being held.
