Bitter Clintons consider staying away from inauguration & Bush hasn't yet RSVPed–Carter WILL attend
The London Daily Mail ^ | December 23, 2016 | David Martosko, US Political Editor

Bill and Hillary Clinton haven't committed themselves to attending Donald Trump's inauguration, which looms less than a month away, after a bruising campaign that left the Democratic nominee and her former-president husband with bloodied reputations at Trump's hands.

So far Jimmy Carter, age 92, is the only former president who has said he will be there on January 20.

George H.W. Bush, just four months younger, has said he will not come to the inauguration, and cites his old age as the reason why, according to Politico.

George W. Bush won't make up his mind until January, his spokesman Freddy Ford told the newspaper....

I’m really surprised at how badly the Bush family is taking this. They’re more upset about Trump than they were about Obama, or than they would have been about Hillary. This is very strange to me.

The absolutely LAST thing that I want to see at the Drain the Swamp Trump inauguration are Clintons and Bushes.

No one needs them but I, for one, would enjoy seeing Hillary there.

I think the Bush clan is hip deep in the financial corruption surrounding the CLintoons! I also believe Baabs and Laura Bush are damn near as big leftwing Libtards as the Clintoons.

No more Bushes.

No more Clintons.

Anywhere in American public life.

Ever again.

It’s not strange to me. The Bushes are frauds and always have been.

I can understand the shame they all must feel. They look like pajama boys compared to Trump.

This is all about the Clinton Foundation. When that donor list is made public, a lot of people are going to be implicated in the scam.

“I, for one, would enjoy seeing Hillary there.”

It would be cool if her donors — her extremely pissed-off donors — forced her to go. Wheel her in, all trussed up in a straight jacket.

psst. the Bushes are globalists.

Trump rightfully defined Jeb and a baffoon.

Called out GWB for creating a dissaster in the middle east and not even taking the oil.

GWB with his entitlement programs doubled the national debt under his watch....which nobody was supposed to notice.

Trump just blew up their globalist agenda and influence peddling scam rendering the entire Bush dynasty/clan irrelevant forevermore.

Don’t even want those alligators there honestly. If they show up it means the swamp isn’t drained yet.

That’s right. The real reason the Clintons aren’t coming is that they are afraid she’ll get a summons served on her while she’s there, or will be taken off the stand in handcuffs.

I can understand George H.W. Bush not attending. He is in poor health these days. George W., however should be there. I hope Bill and Hillary attend just so the cameras can keep showing the expression on loser Hillary’s face from time to time during the ceremonies.

“I’m really surprised at how badly the Bush family is taking this. They’re more upset about Trump than they were about Obama, or than they would have been about Hillary. This is very strange to me.”

Trump not only killed their plan to make little Jeb! the next Bush in the oval office, but, simply by speaking the truth, humiliated the pathetic idiot and pointed out that his brother George didn’t exactly do the world any favors by being in office, either.

Still, sour grapes or not, utterly classless if they don’t show up. Same with the Clintons, but we already know how much class THEY have.

When they do attend, which they will, they should get assigned seating in the least desirable location. Let them refuse to attend due to their poor seat locations. That would be beautiful theater.
