Bush says Trump ‘makes me look pretty good’ by comparison
The Hill ^ | 03/06/18 | John Bowden

Former President George W. Bush often jokes that President Trump's administration makes his own former White House team look "pretty good," according to a Republican source. The former Republican president regularly knocks the current administration, a source close to the Trump administration told National Journal, unable to understand why the White House often seems to be in chaos. "Bush is often heard to remark, unable to stifle his trademark smirk: 'Sorta makes me look pretty good, doesn't it?' " the Journal reported. "He's shaking his head like everyone else wondering why they can't get their act together," the source added. "He wants the guy to succeed but thinks a lot of his problems are self-inflicted."

I don't believe it unless the source is named or if GWB is on tape saying it.

Bush looked good, like Jane Fonda looked good, but both were political whores. To me Trump looks bad, his speech habits drive me crazy, but he, unlike Trump is a good man.

Trump so far has turned out to be the best President in Generations, perhaps since our founding as a Nation.

Bush was a traitor, playing the smirking conservative while advancing the Progressive destruction of the Nation. The Soros/Bush/Clinton/Obama tag team was almost the death of America.

He's ABSOLUTELY right.

Makes him look pretty good, to Globalists, Open-Borders Amnesty RINO's, Anti-American Leftists, and NeoCons.

George Junior ran and hid on 9-11. Then he padded into a Mosque to stammer nonsense about “religion of love”. Then he killed a few thousand Americans invading the wrong country while letting Saudis escape justice. Then he spent the rest of his failed presidency trying to open our borders and ram a massive illegal alien amnesty down our throats.

Leaking attacks on Trump is completely consistent with this bozo’s behavior.

Bush hid on a plane and in a cave on 9-11. Rudy Giuliani was acting President that day.

These people make me loathe myself - for voting TWICE for that idiot!

Me too! And I gave that sonofabitch a ton of money and worked my ass off for him.

I trashed a personally autographed pix of shrub and his wife. This was not an automated or staffer autograph, but one from the real cheezy bastard himself...into the garbage.

Every time W opens his mouth about Trump he just proves
how much of a chicken shit he was when it came to
defending himself against the 8 years of attacks by Obama.
He knows the media will be cool if he goes after Trump.

It makes me not want to vote.

I would’t put it past Bush BUT this is an anonymous sourced story DESIGNED to make Trump look bad.

Of course you are completely right about that. But from the beginning the Bush's have made a lot of negative comments in public about President Trump. I no longer have much tolerance for their current transgressions especially considering their silence while Obama spent eight years dragging our proud nation through the mud.

Sadly, I used to have respect for, and hold him in high esteem, but no more.

The false facade he presented to the American people fell off long ago, and the truth confines to come forth from his own lips. He holds us and the beloved country we love and respect in utter contempt. We are "irredeemable deplorables" in his eyes.

Yeah he keeps spiraling further down the crap hole. He and daddy kept their mouths shut when Clinton and Obumbler destroyed the country but trash a sitting Republican president because he beat the snot out of Little Jebbie.

Bush’s=NO CLASS.

Well, remember who the alternatives were. A global warming scam artist and then a traitor.

Yes, of course. But it still depresses me knowing that I defended this fink.

He was clever. He had me thinking he was some church going country boy. He never was. He was a Harvard skull and crossbones guy the whole time. I wonder if his church attendance was also just all show.
