CNN’s Douglas Brinkley: ‘Nobody’ Wants to See Trump at Bush 41 Funeral
Breitbart ^ | 4 Dec 2018 | Tony Lee

Posted on 12/04/2018 1:57:34 PM PST by detective

CNN’s presidential historian Douglas Brinkley said on Monday evening that nobody attending President George H.W. Bush’s funeral on Wednesday wants to see President Donald Trump.

“Well, I think George Herbert Walker Bush was right. He planned his funeral memorial service right to have President Trump attend,” Brinkley told host Don Lemon. “But let’s be honest. There’s nobody that wants to see President Trump at this memorial service that is going to be there.”

Trump will not speak at the funeral but will reportedly meet privately with the family.

Brinkley mentioned that Trump has been “no friend” of the Bush family since the 1980s.

Nope! It has gone on for two years, 247/365. I could not wait for Barack HUSSEIN Obama to leave, now I ALMOST want him back to stop this continual non-stop assault. Certainly the Bushes must understand, after all Abu Graib was in the news, headlined for a year, “it happened on Bushes watch”. Then another year for Katrina, yellowcake, choking on a pretzel........the list is endless.

Maybe NOBODY is Douglas Brinkley himself. Or is he saying that those who attend the funeral are nobodies? Hard to keep up with these low grade news people who just throw out stupid remarks like this all the time. I can generalize as well as they can. Everybody, nobody. Pres Trump has so upset their high opinion of themselves. He deserves a medal just for constantly yanking their chains and revealing their true partisan democrat stripes. If he did not attend the funeral these fake newsers would go after him for that. Just another day in the life of our President who towers over them all, in every way.

I wouldn’t be proud to be a friend to such a deeply duplicitous family either, no matter how many Americans are fawning and fooled right now. I can’t look at any news media all week because the cognitive dissonance is so great my head might explode.

Every family in America is safer from the threat of a madman’s miscalculation in North Korea
Every family is in America is safer from having the UN and foreign bankers demand we pay them taxes to grow their power and wealth under the guise of ‘ global warming”
Every family in America is safer from a CIA, DOJ and FBI being run by the Clintons and obamas as a private spy operation and coup plot
Every family in America is safer with the dismantling of our support for ISIS as a hammer to destroy secular arab regimes
With Presidents like Trump we dont need him as a “ friend”

The political insiders, liars, frauds, cheats and posers don't want Trump at their gathering.

I'm surprised it took 2 days for these AH's to bring this up.

This whole Bush thing is simply more attempts to undermine, compromise, mock, and discredit Trump. Very nasty people...

CNN’s Douglas Brinkley: ‘Nobody’ Wants to See Trump at Bush 41 Funeral

Well, maybe the "Nobodies" at CNN, MSLSD, and other "networks of tolerance" shouldn't attend. As sitting President, Mr. Trump is all but obligated to attend. As is Mr. Carter, Mr. Bush, Mr. Clinton and Mr. Obama.

At least that's my opinion.

You can tell a lot about people by the TV News/Shows they watch. The CNN employees and dedicated viewers . . . you have to feel sorry for these reprobates.

Trump should tweet daily which media person he does not want at his funeral. These idiots politicize everything.
