There's no question that Prescott Bush, the grandfather of the current president, was implicated in extensive shady business dealings with the Nazis before the US entered the war. It's also true that he was took a deep interest in eugenics and to this end took an energetic role in furthering the fortunes of Planned Parenthood.

Prescott's son -- the future Bush 41 -- followed his father's lead as errand boy and cheerleader for PP, especially during his days as a Texas congressman.

This isn't slander; it's history, not matter how embarassing or inconvenient.

There was nothing shady about their dealings with Nazi Germany.
At that time Fascism looked like the future, the only alternative to Communism. Lots of folks had dealing with Nazis.
Standard Oil sold 'em fuel right up to the last minute.
IBM sold 'em punch cards, readers, etc.
Ford and GM opened plants there (and applied for reparations after the war to compensate for their bombed factories!). Henry Ford openly supported Hitler's anti-Semetic programs.
IT WAS ALL LEGAL! There was nothing shady about it until after the "trading with enemy" acts were passed.

Well, I didn't know that! If this is true, he must have made them angry when he was president; because he became much more pro-life then. Even Barbara Bush admitted that he was even more pro-life than she was! The feminist groups, and I thought PP were downing him like they did RR, and now his son, weren't they?
