Barbara Bush says 'angst' over Trump caused heart problems, new book says.
NBC News ^ | 3/27/19 | Allan Smith

Posted on 03/27/2019 5:17:57 AM PDT by Carriage Hill

Barbara Bush so fiercely disliked President Donald Trump that she blamed him for what she called a heart attack and, by the end of her life, she no longer considered herself a Republican.

"I'd probably say no today," she told Page in an October 2017 interview on whether she was still a Republican.

Those were excerpts, released Wednesday, of an upcoming biography of Bush by USA Today's Susan Page, who spoke with the former first lady extensively in the final months of her life. Bush died last April and her husband, 41st President George H.W. Bush, died in November.

The Bush’s all fooled me. Like one of my REAL “reality” TV shows (Evil Lives Here) says .... “but there were signs”.

George H W Bush. (41)
The MOST qualified person ever to be president.
At one point had an approval rating of 89%.

Then, he CAVES to the Demonrats and breaks his “Read my lips” pledge, ceding the presidency to the Demonrats.

George W Bush. (43)
Hero of 9/11.
At one point had an approval rating of 90%. It was all downhill from there.
From hero to zero in 8 years.
The Demonrats OWNED “W”. He never defended himself or us. What a pathetic LOSER he turned out to be.

Barbara Bush (the elder). AKA “Bug Eyed Babs”
The Bush matriarch. Ma Bush (as in Ma Barker)
NEVER liked her. Don’t know why so many did.
She turned on her party and turned on her country. Nancy Reagan she wasn’t.

Thank GOD! That Donald Trump saved us from yet another Bush “mamma’s boy”. (Jeb)

The Bush and Clinton dynasties are DEAD.

The ‘software’ layers rides on the hardware ‘layer’, and the s/w can surely drive the hardware nuts (or ‘off into the ditch’ as they say) IF you let it ...

Q.E.D. Barbara Bush.

Don’t forget Laura Bush. I think she was not Pro-Life, like Babs.

She would have forbade Churchill from smoking cigars in HER presence or Einstein his pipe.

I’m hoping he can do the same to Li’l Adam Schiff and Pelosi and a few others. And why not Soros? That would be good.

Me too. Every day I am more embarrassed to think of how vociferous I was in defending GWB. Bunch of elitist thieves who kowtowed to the Saudis.

and, by the end of her life, she no longer considered herself a Republican.

She was NEVER a Republican.

She was a Democrat.

It's what I call "The Simple Test", formulated after watching Democrat Federal judges run the country from the miniature Oval Offices in their judges' chambers.

If you're OK with a Democrat being appointed as a judge to the Federal courts, you're a Democrat.

Barbara Bush was OK with Democrats being appointed as judges to the Federal courts.

Rumor is that she was pro-abortion.

Doesn;t sound very republican to me...

It became clear that the whole Bush clan were elitists when they all publicly began gushing over Bubba and the Hildebeast. They weren’t just being cordial to a former presidential couple - they luuuved them and couldn’t quit saying so.
