Lot of bedwetters in this thread. Trump is one man against the entire corrupt swamp, and some people are deducting style points for answering his critics in kind. Barbara Bush was no shrinking violet, and his answer was pretty tame.
If this is stress relief for out beloved Pres then I am for it. It seems he is surrounded by GOP globalist anti patriots EVEN ON HIS STAFF! That has to be stressful.
Better response: Well connected insiders like the Bushs get nervous about plain talking folk who stand up for America.
What President Trump said showed sensitivity and was quite mild actually.
They began as “nice people” but after two presidencies and one governorship they became very full of themselves, particularly G.H.W. Bush and his wife. I think GW was and remains the most mild mannered of the bunch.
Barbara Bush, a nice grandmotherly persona spawning a reprehensible cluster of corrupt banking reprobates.
Everywhere the Bushies were, from the S&L Crisis of the elder to the mortgage meltdown of the junior, they sowed destruction on the middle class. allowing white collar banksters to rip, embezzle, abscond, and get away.
And yet they had the audacity to hold themselves as ‘proper and prudent’.
Her family ushered in a lecherous criminal President in Bill Clinton and ushered in a traitorous usurper in Barack Hussein Obama.
That family has done more damage to the GOP than most will ever know. It drove many out of the Republican party into registering as Independents. Thank God Donald Trump is bringing them all back home.
To Barbara Bush, we say Rest In Peace but we’re not buying your book and we’re not tolerating you berating of a great. great plain speaking fighting President that is restoring the Republican Party to greatness after your spawn wrecked it.

“Badda Bing, Badda Bang!”
George W. Bush was revered--here on Free Republic and everywhere--until it was realized that he had NO intention of enforcing US immigration laws, that he was just another big government spender, etc., et al.
And the Bushes themselves revealed their true nature when George H. W. bragged that he had voted for Hillary, and Barbara made snide and nasty remarks about Sarah Palin and Donald Trump.
But it was Trump's sheer presence, honesty, and truth that finally exposed the Bushes for what they are. Merely in juxtaposition, they could no longer maintain their camouflage.
The great irony is that the Bushes had enormous support. Here on Free Republic--and elsewhere: They were praised and lauded. George W. was nominated for Mt. Rushmore. Glowing, excited, ambition plans were made--here on Free Republic and elsewhere--to elect Jeb to the Presidency and then his son, George P. Bush, with the expectations that the Bushes would occupy the Presidency for the foreseeable future.
Had the Bushes foreseen and embraced the Trump Revolution, such ambitions might have been realized.
He was asked a question about Barbara Bush’s criticism of him.
He didn’t attack the bitter dead Woman in his response.
In fact, he actually praised her despite the fact that the Reporter asking the question was hoping and praying he would attack Barbara Bush.
What’s not to like? Her Sons can defend themselves if they have a problem with his response.
Please clap.
The Bushes are nothing but liars, crooks, and liberal hacks, including Barbara.
God I love the honesty and non BS NYer speak of this President:-)
Trump did nothing against the Shrub boys. They did it to themselves. He just pointed it out to the rest of the world. and The Shrubs started the fight by jumping on Trump
