Former President George H.W. Bush said in a room of roughly 40 people Monday that he would vote for Hillary Clinton in November, according to sources close to Bush -- an extraordinary rebuke of his own party's nominee.
Representatives of the Bush family are declining to publicly acknowledge the former president's decision. But sources close to Bush tell CNN that he shared his plans with board members of the bipartisan Points of Light Foundation during what he believed was a private gathering Monday in Kennebunkport, Maine.

Thank you Mr. Bush. You just helped cement the anti-estabishment feeling even more, it helps and we appreciate it. More Trump votes.
To: All
Well of course he is voting for his Adopted Daughter-in-Law.

The whole Bush family will endorse illary of she falls far enough behind.
They are protecting a 30 year bipartisan policy of non-enforcement of immigration laws.
We have 30 million illegal aliens because they wanted them here.
They are not about to allow the citizens to reverse their population migration schemes.

I guess the Bushes can’t get over how poor Jeb lost so badly in the nomination process. I don’t think he got over 10 percent in a single state. Aesop called it “sour grapes”.

Oh I sure believe it. The Bushes have always been friendly to the Clintons, and his son got completely humiliated by Trump this year, when the nomination belonged to him.

The Bushes and Clintons and Kennedys and Obamas, etc are all linked in this NWO conspiracy. They are all criminals who should answer to the people in special courts to deal with them. They are BEYOND traitors.

I’m not surprised. Trump had the audacity to oppose the Bush/Clinton dynasty. F them.
To: Innovative
Bush family are declining to publicly acknowledge the former president's decision. Declining to acknowledge is the same as saying it's true. I now regret anything that I have ever said in support of a Bush.
ANYONE who supports Hillary is an enemy of the USA.

A Bush spokesperson said he never told her anything about who he is voting for. Taking the fifth is confirmation of a betrayal.

Former President George H.W. Bush said in a room of roughly 40 people Monday that he would vote for Hillary Clinton in November...what CNN conveniently omits is that all of those forty people were not within hearing range of what HW was saying with Kennedy whatshername - she alone knows or thinks she knows what he said and she's a 'rat - they lie as easily as they breathe.....
To: Innovative
The Bushes have gone beyond refusing to support the GOP candidate, despite Jeb’s oath, to expressing an intention to support and vote for Hillary Clinton.
Because it was Jeb’s turn.
That’s despicable.

I saw Karl (the Genius ) Rove on Cavuto today. When asked about this, he said he has known Bush 41 for 30+ years and knows he would not reveal his vote. It was Rove’s opinion that he might not like Trump but would never vote for Hillary. Too much is at risk.
Cavuto asked him if Rove thought Kennedy-Townsend lied. Rove said she made “inferences” incorrectly. And the Ministry of Truth (my name for the media) has taken those inferences and run like a scalded dog with them.
