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?' " National Journal reported.

I remember how the media cheered with glee when that guy threw his shoe at Bush too. Just goes to show...

And to top it off, we had to vote for the lessor of two evils for quite a few years with these assholes.

Why didn’t Bush speak up when BHO was president?

Because before the Trump era the differences between the two beltway parties were inconsequential.

I am not sure which is the worst crime family, the Bushes or the Clintons. It is pretty much a tie.

Bush might have been the simpleton the press always claimed he was. My respect for him has slipped lower and lower. But I still would’ve voted for him over his opponents.

Of all the things (with the exception of voting for Hillary) that was the one thing that infuriated me the most.

The rolling over and failing to fight back. I disagreed with Bush on a lot of things, but I could rationalize them to get by.

I could never get over that refusal to punch back.

And that is what I love about Trump.

He never fails to take an opportunity to poke those we hate in the eye, and to do it in such a way that enrages them beyond words and turns them into spittle-lipped, bug-eyed, hair standing on end, typical Leftists. Even on minor things like the Oscars, he has to stick the knife in, and twist...just a little to hear the yelps and howls.

Love it. Love seeing arrogant bullies with confused looks on their faces and blood streaming from their noses. They still haven't figured out he isn't just going to curl up and go away. They have no idea on how to deal with them.

Even something like the loser Lindsey Vaughn...he wouldn't just lay down, and his tweets inspired things like this that just make me grin every single time I see it!

Love it.

Just Love it.

Agreed 100%.

Gore? Kerry? Have to have your head examined, unless you were rooting for an accelerated slide into the abyss.

The only thing I can say in Bush’s favor is that he was better than either of the two Democrats that he defeated. And that may not be saying much.

Go get some of that good Kentucky whiskey and go watch the ball game George.

Don’t make it any worse for yourself than it already is.

If Trump makes Bush look good, it is only because it’s from the liberal point of view. Why would you want liberal approval, Dubya? This is the problem with RINOS. They love the approval of liberals, while liberals stomp their guts out.

Liberals only approve of Bush because he is a loser. Just like they like ‘em.

It is primary day here in Texas, and you can be assured that I didn’t vote for another Bush.

From my perspective you’d have to have your head examined to have to have voted for Bush during his 2nd term. Me personally, no way was I going to support any of those open border big.gov globalist by the time it reached that point.
