The Bushes and Obamas certainly became close despite the fact that Obama’s policies were the exact opposite of those the Bush family espoused. I can understand being polite in social settings, but they seemed to have become very close and lined up together on political issues.
Anyway, I can’t forgive the Bush family for being totally silent regarding the attacks by the left on President Trump. They only speak when the question is “do you agree with Trump?” And their answer is always “No”. President Trump was implementing policies that President Bush always pretended to support. Not a word from Bush backing him up was uttered.
To this day Bush has not said a word about the vitriol and political lawfare against Trump, and the fact that he has been silent in regards to the attacks against Paxton, a conservative in his own state speaks loudly. If a true conservative, Paxton’s former opponent would be supporting him and denouncing the railroading. The silence is the “dog that didn’t bark”.
