President Trump on Sunday took aim at George W. Bush after the former Republican president issued a call to push partisanship aside amid the outbreak of the novel coronavirus.
In a three-minute video shared on Twitter on Saturday, Bush urged Americans to remember "how small our differences are in the face of this shared threat."
"In the final analysis, we are not partisan combatants. We are human beings, equally vulnerable and equally wonderful in the sight of God," Bush said. "We rise or fall together, and we are determined to rise."
In an early morning tweet on Sunday, Trump called out Bush for his failure to support him as he faced an impeachment trial earlier this year over his alleged dealings with Ukraine. He cited apparent comments from Fox News anchor Pete Hegseth, who asked why Bush didn't push for "putting partisanship aside" amid the trial.
"He was nowhere to be found in speaking up against the greatest Hoax in American history," Trump said.
Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump .@PeteHegseth “Oh bye the way, I appreciate the message from former President Bush, but where was he during Impeachment calling for putting partisanship aside.” @foxandfriends He was nowhere to be found in speaking up against the greatest Hoax in American history!

Do these look like calls for more unity? More lies from the media.
“Ronald Reagan’s biggest mistake was to choose George Bush as his running mate.”
Seems I’ve heard that Bush wasn’t exactly Reagan’s “choice”, but the old traiter coot was almost forced on Reagan. D on’t know if it’s true.
This ass-clown wasn’t speaking while Obama was turning the USA into a socialist utopia.
He needs to put down the paint brush and catch some common sense.
This is so common now, and they do it deceptively knowing many just glance at the headlines when they don’t have time or care to read them
"Let us remember how small our differences are in the face of this shared threat," the former president said in a video posted Saturday. "In the final analysis, we are not partisan combatants -- we are human beings, equally vulnerable and equally wonderful in the sight of God. We rise or fall together and we are determined to rise. God bless you all."
When the headlines are deceptive,
TV is like that too, talking heads just repeat the headline because they want us to believe it.
