Both Bush Presidents Lash Out At Trump, GHW Confirms He Voted For Hillary

The fading Republican establishment remains unable to reconcile its ongoing collapse, and continues to scapegoat Donald Trump for all the GOP’s troubles instead of looking in the mirror.

Two weeks after an outraged George W. Bush lashed out at Trump, accusing him of emboldening “bigotry and white supremacy“, on Saturday we learn just how deep the animosity toward Trump runs within the extended Bush household. In a new book to be released this month from historian Mark Updegrove, titled “The Last Republicans“, and previewed on Saturday by the NYT and CNN, former President George H.W. Bush said he considers Trump a “blowhard,” only interested in feeding his own “ego.” Meanwhile, his son, former President George W. Bush, thinks Trump fans public anger and came to office without any understanding of the job.

When asked about Donald Trump in May 2016, GHW Bush said: “I don’t like him … I don’t know much about him, but I know he’s a blowhard. And I’m not too excited about him being a leader.”

His son was just as vocal: “Wow, this guy doesn’t know what it means to be president,” the junior Bush said, indicating that a president should not “exploit the anger, incite it” but rather “come up with ideas to deal with it.”

(snip)

In any case, both former presidents worry that Mr. Trump has blown up a Republican Party that they spent two lifetimes building; Dubya also told Updegrove: “I’m worried that I will be the last Republican president.”

It’s OK, I can confirm that I have never voted for a Bush.

The response tweet should be: “Low energy Jeb—$150 milliion dollars, three delegates. Sad!”

Both Bush and Buchanan did that to Reagan.

Had Bush picked Buchanan in ‘88 as VP, this would not be happening today.

Hmmmm...what got their shorts in a wad? The brewing Saudi Arabia stuff?

Exactly... they are watching the globalist and deep state actors being dismantled before their very eyes. Whether it is Hollywood elites being taken out, the DNC exposure of rigging the primaries, or the Saudi news that is breaking, you are seeing an across the board multi-pronged attack on the corrupt actors and systems put in place over the past several decades. I believe the Bushes' involvement is a desperation message to the deep state and globalist actors to stay the course.

More confirmation that Bushies and GOPe are total scum.

Now, everyone can agree that they are morons. We can always pull quotes from the globalist media from a few years ago, and now any conservative with half a brain can see it.

What a legacy. You would think that they would have gone down quietly.

Anyone who voted for Hillary knowingly voted for a criminal and can never be trusted in any matter. In the case of the Bush family, they became wealthy in their dealings with the decadent Saudi royal family. Says volumes about them, why we attacked Iraq after 9/11 was perpetuated by Saudis and with the knowledge of Saudi intelligence and the true nature of the Bush family.

“I’m worried that I will be the last Republican president.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He was counting on being the last Republican President, that’s what importing 30 million undocumented Democrats was all about.

That’s something else that needs to be investigated.

Nothing delights me more this weekend than seeing this wheelchair-bound molester and his retarded baboon son railing against President Trump.

I also voted for those two pieces of garbage. I should have voted third party.

Back in 1988, when David-Cop-a-Feel (George H. W.) ran for president, there was old footage of H. W. being fished out of the water alive and well after being shot down by the Japanese.

I can’t help but wonder how the world would have turned out if George H. W. had not survived his encounter with Tojo’s boys.

I liked George Bush, and still like his treatment of the military, and, for the most part, liked Jeb Bush as Governor of Florida.

But the fact that the Bushes haven’t said s-— about 8 years of Obama and have now come out and criticized Trump, well, they can KMA and go to Hell.
