Big Government ^ | 11/6/17 | John Hayward

Former President George W. Bush is a “brahmin Yankee from Yale” who is “pretending he’s a Texan,” Breitbart News Executive Chairman and former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon told the American families of illegal alien crime victims.

During a speech at the Remembrance Project conference, an organization that represents the illegal alien crime victims’ families, Bannon blasted the Bush dynasty, calling out President George W. Bush specifically on his lack of leadership on the issue of illegal and legal immigration.

“You want to know why I detest the elites of the Republican Party,” Bannon said. “Where were they? Where is Jeb Bush? Where were all these guys? Bush… Bush… Old man Bush – and the son today got a book out, you know. ‘The demise of the Republican Party, this Republican Party is falling apart. Donald Trump’s destroyed the Republican Party.’ You know why? Because finally folks like you have a say-so.”

On George W. Bush, Bannon said:

While’s he’s up in Kennebunkport or wherever they are. You know the other guy down there pretending he’s a Texan. You can’t take a brahmin Yankee from Yale and take him down to Texas to make a cowboy out of him. I don’t care how long you wear the boots, brother. You’re a Yankee brahmin, okay.

Hard to disagree. I’m sure tired of being caled a racist just for realizing that ILLEGAL immigration is a bad idea.

Bannon said he’d spend one year at the White House. Now he is outside doing the Lord’s work.

The Bushes and the Chamber of Commerce and the GOPe are all in for the cheap labor express of LEGAL CHAIN MIGRATION, H1B visa’s, illegals, and globalism which destroys middle class America.

Bannon is brilliant in seeing things as they really are, AND having the courage to speak up.

It’s old news W Bush had a different “accent” when he was home back in Red England.
Ann Richards was right.

George H.W. threw it all at Gulf War I, did a great job with that, and then got easily defeated because he’d been on vacation since February 1991. G.W. Bush pulled out two squeakers against the lamest candidates in the history of the world (Al Gore, a guy so stupid that he couldn’t graduate Vanderbilt Law School with his father on the faculty, and mentally vacant Married-to-money Kerry). I’m supposed to be impressed with these guys? Whatever.....

Mark Levin said tonight Trump has been a “VERY conservative President.” More than either Bush ever was and that’s why the Bushes hate Trump.
