Former President George W. Bush has no plans to endorse in the election

And NO, he doesn't answer to you. Or me. He's RETIRED.

As a former president who answered to 350 million people, he is expected to express his opinion and with an endorsement. He is being a coward.

Yeah, I also voted for him. Twice.

You are besides the point. You don't matter, even if you voted for him. As to the other millions who voted for him, we expect him to express an opinion and an endorsement. He may be retired from the PRESIDENCY, but he's never retired from politics, and the party members who voted for expect better than he's done up to now.

DO NOT PRESUME TO SPEAK FOR ME!

I would never speak for someone who is as cowardly as GW Bush. Perish the thought.

Who cares what this paint by number douchenozzle thinks about anything?

A lot of people (or 'bots?) on this forum care enough to get their panties in a wad because he DIDN'T give the "endorsement" they want. So the answer to your question is "a bunch of 'FReepers'".

It's really funny.

Celebrity "endorsements" are for idiots.

Celebrity endorsements only matter to morons.

He's not a celebrity, dopey.

He's a former president, and one who's opinion matters and is expected. Celebrities whose opinions don't matter, are the Hollywood and entertainment and sports types. Again, he's a FORMER PRESIDENT. Understand the difference??? But, he may be thinking of another celebrity who does matter to him and that is his daughter who works at NBC. He would not want to jeopardize her career if he says the wrong thing that NBC would not like.

That's another hint right there. Bush's wife and daughters are all liberals.

Therefore Bush will vote for Harris.

He gets to make history because Harris will be the first female POTUS.

I knew it. I knew that X-Files plot thread about the shapeshifters was taken from stories of politicians in real life.😉

Definitions.
The Shapeshifters are extraterrestrial beings known for their bright green blood, extreme physical resilience and the ability to perfectly mimic the appearance of other humanoids.
At least two factions of Shapeshifters are known to exist: the ruthless bounty hunters, which are loyal to the Colonists; and the Faceless Rebels, so-called for their practice of sealing up all orifices of their faces to prevent themselves from being infected by the Purity. The Faceless aliens oppose the actions of the Colonists, and have been openly at war against them.

We know it’s fiction. Otherwise Kamala would be pretending to be a harmless centrist instead of a crusading Communist.
And RINOs would secretly be pro-USA instead of working with global elitists to undermine the country.
So it must be fiction.

He's a former president

Emphasis on FORMER. As in not any longer. As in retired. As in should (and did) exercise his right to Shut His Mouth.

Why would anyone care how a FORMER president plans to vote? Only a moron would care about "endorsements".

Not being a moron, I'm glad he kept his opinions to himself. I'd be even more glad to see other FORMER office holders do the same thing. This whole business of "endorsements" is an exercise in arrant stupidity ... The Republic would be better off without it.

Is your mind so weak that you rely on FORMER presidents to tell you how to vote?

Emphasis on FORMER. As in not any longer. As in retired.

You have no understanding of how politics works. Former does not mean he's retired from the responsibility of opining, one way or another, about elections and candidates. He's got a responsibility as a FORMER leader to state who and why he's endorsing anyone or not. Even the worst president in history do that, namely Clinton and Carter and Obama. Why should Bush be exempt from doing the responsible thing.

Why would anyone care how a FORMER president plans to vote? Only a moron would care about "endorsements".

Then, why is it so important for news sources tell people that a president is doing endorsements or no endorsements? Apparently the news media cares and they report those endorsements because PEOPLE want to hear what their former leaders have to say. Only morons would not care.

Not being a moron,

Says you. ;)

I'm glad he kept his opinions to himself.

He owes it to his former supporters and to the country. He is not president, but his opinions are something that people would be interested in.

I'd be even more glad to see other FORMER office holders do the same thing.

But they don't. And I'm sure they're glad that Bush is being a coward and not endorsing, which to them, means Bush is endorsing Kamala by not endorsing Trump.

This whole business of "endorsements" is an exercise in arrant stupidity

Yet people do look for who is doing endorsements and who they are endorsing. Bush is being a coward, period.

The Republic would be better off without it.

I agree, but, as long as there are other former and current leaders doing endorsement, we want to hear about endorsement from all sides, including Bush's endorsements. If he's not going to endorse anyone, he still owes the people a reason why. Is your mind so weak that you rely on FORMER presidents to tell you how to vote?

It's not about me, dopey.

It's about the many millions who do listen to who a former or current leader endorses, before they make up their minds. It happens. Far too many people are low-information and they need to be led by the hand. So, we need to hear about endorsements from all sides.

See? Even you are a low-information voter, since you have no idea why endorsements matter.

You have no understanding of how politics works.

You begin your rant with a false statement.

Do the world a favor: emulate your hero George W Bush and exercise your right to remain silent.

Former does not mean he's retired from the responsibility of opining, one way or another,

No such responsibility exists. You've invented it out of thin air.

Endorsements are for imbeciles. Are you an imbecile? Is your mind so weak that you require an "endorsement" to tell you how to vote?

news sources

Otherwise known as "leftist propaganda outlets". I'm sure they're very important to you. The rest of us? Not so much ...

Yet people do look for who is doing endorsements and who they are endorsing.

BWAHAHahahahahahahaha!!! Yeah ... The Republic is chock-a-block with voters hanging on George Bush's every word, waiting for him to tell them how to vote. NOT. Maybe that describes you ... apparently it does, and his silence has left you dazed and confused. But I bet the number of such people is nearly nil.
