Former President George W. Bush, at FAU, weighs in on 2024 election and Israel-Hamas war

Former President George W. Bush intends to vote in the 2024 presidential election, but he might write in the name of his brother, Jeb Bush — or his late Scottish terrier, Barney.

Though joking, Bush echoed a concern many Americans cite about two of the prospective candidates: their age.

“I predict that most Americans think we’re too damn old at the top,” Bush, 77, said. “I’m too old to be president. I know what it takes to be president, and I’m younger than Biden and Trump.”

Bush is about four years younger than current President Joe Biden and about one month younger than former President Donald Trump.

I couldn’t care less what former President George W. Bush, Obama lover, and government lover says. He actually disgusts me.

Yes, I too could not vote for Gore or the fraud known as John Kerry. I actually worked the phones on GWBUsh’s second run.

This really boils down to Bush being a Democrat and trying to stop Trump. It’s dog bites man. Who cares what this guy thinks?

The MSM is going to give us an absolute conveyor-belt of GOPe deep-state never-Trumpers, people they haven't paid attention to in years and never had a good thing to say about when they were in office, each one giving his or her reasons why Trump is Hitler, Trump means the end of the world, Trump means the collapse of the space-time continuum.

When they come to the end of the list, they'll go back to the top and go through it again.

He was great on oil. Makes sense. He was an oil man.

Also, he wasn't afraid to kick @$$ so our enemies respected Bush.

Other than that, he tried to reach too hard to reach out to the Democrats. That was a mistake.

Even if I could go back in time, will I vote for Bush again? You bet I will!

He’s right. Trump isn’t the same guy he was eight years ago and the court cases seem to be wearing him down.

From the excerpt:

That is not presented as a quote. If he actually said that, he is an absolute Axxxxxx.

He sides with Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.

For that reason alone, I will never trust another word out of his mouth.

Nothing more needs to be said.
