How the media lies part 9,565,843,210

Note the picture and the headline, the actual Bushies that are supporting him in the article are a daughter and an uncle. The headline and picture are, imo, intended to cause most to infer otherwise.

We can never distrust and hate the media enough.

Barbara Bush, daughter of ex-President George W Bush, has reportedly donated to Talarico's campaign, while her uncle, Neil Bush, says he backs the Democrat.

Not that it would surprise me all that much if W and Jeb supported Talafreako, but yeah, the headline and picture are clearly meant to suggest that.

The simpleton GW Bush called Meshelle Obama his “best friend”. Enough said; I remember convention night in 1980, me and my family were so disappointed to see our choice, Reagan, pick Bush Sr. as his VP. We were right.

Bush family only give a squat about themselves. I would never ever vote for anyone from that deceitful sorry ass family.

They played pro-life for years which was a big lie. Barbara Bush (wife of Bush 1) was pro-choice. Laura Bush = pro-choice. Bush daughters = pro-choice. GHW Bush’s father was pro-choice. In fact, he was the first treasurer of the group that later became known as Planned Parenthood. The Bush family are all corrupt globalist frauds.

Not doubting the “Big Bushes” would support him. I posted the article more to show how the media is utterly contemplable and dishonest

“...The simpleton GW Bush called Meshelle Obama his “best friend”....”

Way back, I was ostracized and banned from FR on my original account for calling this POS out for exactly what he was.... That’s ok as I was eventually proven correct, and life went on.
Never agreed with Jessie Jackson on anything, except “stay outta the bushes..”

Just remember this when they happen to win and say we need to come together now that the primary is over. They rarely if ever do that. Trump won not because the party leadership decided to support the nominee.

The Bush’s have always been Democrat-LITE in my personal opinion.

My father (who passed back in 2009) never liked W, though at the time, I did not know why. I think I was just so relieved to be rid of the Clinton Crime Syndicate (or so I thought), that I didn’t pay much attention to W and his background/connections.

My father also, who passed in 2013. He supported Bush and Cheney 100% in 2000. After 8 years of the Clintons, he was giddy happy that the Repugnants, I mean Republicans, were back in control. That is, until Bush took us back to war in the Middle East, and my dad was totally disgusted by that. He switched his allegiance to Obama. I couldn’t believe my father would support Obama, but he sure did, to the very end. I’ve often wondered if he would have backed Trump, and I do believe he would have wholeheartedly.

Remember Jeb looking like an idiot, standing on his tiptoes to be taller than Trump, then getting his ass kicked. The family never got over that.

I was already supporting Paxton. The Bushes don’t need to do anything more to convince me.
