George W. Bush: 'It's a problem that Americans are so polarized' they can't imagine him being friends with Michelle Obama

Former President George W. Bush reflected in a new interview on the surprise many Americans expressed at his friendship with former first lady Michelle Obama.

In an interview released on Sunday with CBS News’s Norah O’Donnell, Bush noted several times that his friendly relationship with Obama has gone viral, including when they hugged at the 2016 opening of the National Museum of African American History and Culture and when he passed her a cough drop during former Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) 2018 funeral.

Most people don’t give a shit Dubya is friends with Michelle, My-Belle! This isn’t high school! We don’t demand you can’t be my friend if you are their friend kinda crap!

The problem is that YOU, Dubya, don’t have an issue with the Odumbasses wanting a One-World-Government (mostly because you and your Daddy both wanted to cozy up with the oligarchs who will finally gain control)!

And THAT is what people can’t believe...someone who claims they love Americans, kissing up to a known American-hating class of people in the likes of Mrs. & Mr. Michelle Obama!

Oh we can imagine it.

I can’t imagine ANYBODY liking Michele Obama, George. She’s a racist and full of spite.

Bush is a 'born on third - thinks he hit a triple' elite. Like Cuomo... and NOT like DeSantis who made it on his own...

Of course Bush looked down on citizens who elected him. He's a private school kind of jerk. Ask yourself this: is there any chance Bush has a middle class friend? I would bet against it.

As far as the former First Lady - she would be easier to be friends with...

But hey, I once liked and trusted Dubya and now I find out how much of a swamp creature he is.

I trust very very few elected officials now, I think I finally learned my lesson.

Its hard to imagine why a “real” black person wants to be friends with a white supremacist, formally known as Hitler, who wanted to put blacks back in chains and was responsible for the lynching of James Byrd Jr. /SARC

We expect the Obamas to be traitors; they didn’t claim to love America.

The public f@(king Dubya did to the GOP base and his treatment of the Tea Party is what got Trump elected, and if not for the obvious election fraud, it got Trump elected to a second term as well!

Once we understood that Georgie was part of the globalist cabal and that both Sr. Democrat and Republican members are part of the uni-party, it became perfectly understand why Georgie and Michael could be good friends.

I don’t hang around with folks who want to lecture me and cause me to be permanently unemployed. So mooch is out on two counts and W is out on at least one, maybe 2 because he wants to ship all of Mexico into the US. Lesson learned: people who THINK they know it all DON’T. . . .

George W. Bush: ‘It's a problem that Americans are so polarized’ they can't imagine him being friends with Michelle Obama

Actually polarization has nothing to with it.

We just can't believe that ex President of the United States George Bush would be such a beta cuckold to even want to be friends with a pair of people like Barak and Michelle Obama who bad mouthed, demonized , denigrated and pretty much blamed Bush for America's problems instead of their their own incompetence and non performance for the entire 8 years of their time in the White House.,p> I mean, really- Barak complaining "It's Bushes fault". was such a signature motto of his presidency that is became a standing joke in the media

I mean really, it's bad enough that Bush never even tried to call the Obama's on their bad mouthing of his presidency and their trashing of America for 8 years. It's unimaginable that he would remotely want to be friends with them

But it turns out GWB is one of them, the Collectivist. I feel betrayed because I thought he believed in the US Constitution and the supremacy of the individual like I do. I’m done. Just consider him another Lincoln Project reject.

On one hand, this goon decries the “lack of humility” of President Trump, and on the other he can’t stay out of the liberal spotlight. He showed us humility all right, with the “kick me again” sign he wore on his back throughout his ridiculous presidency. Why is it that the inner narcissist of W can’t just go away?
