Dick Cheney did it. Arnold Schwarzenegger did it. Adam Kinzinger did it, of course. So did Jeff Flake. Mike Pence walked right up to the edge but ultimately declined to take the plunge, but even George W. Bush’s daughter, Barbara Pierce Bush, and Dick Cheney’s notorious daughter Liz (that is, former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Jan. 6) jumped right in. And now Liz Cheney is calling upon the biggest prize of all, former President George W. Bush, to join the party for the uniparty and endorse Kamala Harris for president.
appropriate forum for an establishment mouthpiece to issue a call to a former president to affirm his commitment to that establishment. After all, the New Yorker is a pillar of the political and media elite class that finds Donald Trump so intensely threatening.
Cheney expressed puzzlement over why Bush hadn’t already come out for Kamala. "I can't explain why George W. Bush hasn't spoken out,” she said, “but I think it’s time, and I wish that he would.” Fox notes, however, that “the former president and his wife, Laura, have said they have no plans to endorse a presidential candidate.” Yet even that was a semi-endorsement of Harris, as it was conspicuous in the extreme that the eighteenth Republican president in American history was refusing to endorse the nineteenth in the latter’s bid for reelection.
Remember also that Bush was steadfastly silent during the eight years of the Obama administration, fastidiously declining to criticize his successor. When Trump became president, however, suddenly Bush decided that it was just fine for a former president to criticize the man who currently occupied the Oval Office.

LOL- it would be comical, if not enjoyably, watching the rats fawn over BushHitler
Poor lizard, you think that would help. She is so funny
i suspect W is thinking of George P. who i think has managed to stay out of the family feud w/DJT
MEANWHILE A GROUP OF SOMALI MUSLUM LEADERS JUST ENDORSED TRUMP!!!
Most people who would vote for Trump know that George W. Bush is trash. So I can’t see how W’s endorsement of Harris would make any difference.
If anything, the endorsement would just be more evidence that it’s not Trump vs. Harris. It’s Trump vs. the poisonous Deep State.
W doesnt need to jump into anything.
I think most people wouldn’t mind having a beer with the guy. After all of these years, I don’t need him talking partisan politics. He is not an idiot. He knows there is zero upside to his commenting.
She sounds desperate. Maybe she thinks W’s endorsement would sway independents?
Does anyone really care what George W thinks these days? I had a “suitable for framing” letter from the GW Whitehouse thanking me for my support; I think my wife threw it out
If he doesn’t someone may send a firing squad......😵
How adorable, a war criminal begging another war criminal for assistance in helping another war criminal win an election..the rat party, FULL of war criminals
Do Democrats think that Liz Cheney isn’t going to get something for endorsing Kamala if she wins.
Do they really want Secretary of Defense Liz Cheney?
I think it was his connection to the Bush gang that destroyed any chance DeSantis had at the vice presidency.
Not sure about that, the Bush’s are all Washington elitists supporting the deep state, and Trump is rocking the boat.
Well if it can keep a war going longer, then he might be tempted.
But he and dick made so much money off of us during the Iraq “rebuild’ that he can live incredibly well forever without entering the political fray.
The crippled and brain damaged war vets who he sent into battle against a 3rd world country and a 2 cent dictator who actually CRUSHED extremism...they are not faring as well.
He’s garbage.
Didn’t care when his parents passed and wont care when he passes.
You shouldn’t honor him wit that word..President
ex piece of garbage is better.
But hey, the attack he launched against the Sauds was BRUTAL.
He really took them down after NINETY PERCENT of the attackers were from there
Trump’s success this time around is because he ditched the GOP lifers and brought in new blood like Elon, Tulsi and RFK Jr.
GOP Lifers did not want Trump to succeed and backstabbed him his first term.
I'll give that to Dubya.
I may not agree with everything that he did. But he had the sense to stay quiet.
He did make one mistake. He endorsed Mitt Romney in 2012.
