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.

Im sorry the book had to include this...it makes her look petty and mean spirited. <<<
Well...the book has to have at least a ring of truth to it to make it believable.....

W & Jeb are still heavily involved in the GOPe, Deep State and Swamp. And they’ll always be there, in their lifetimes. Knowing what I know now, I loathe, despise and hate them both, for what they’ve done to America.

She was my favorite First Lady... I think I’m going to choose to believe she didn’t have all the facts - and that she was being a protective loving mother to her sons.

Barbara Bush was extremely hard on her children, especially George who seems to have been a big disappointment to her. I had to cringe when I saw that she told the doctor on her death bed that George turned out the way he did because she smoked and drank while she was pregnant. The former president told the story in a lighthearted manner, suggesting that she was always making jokes like that. And thats exactly the problem. https://washingtonmonthly.com/2018/04/18/a-contrary-view-of-barbara-bush/
She was a mean drunk.
