AUSTIN — With Donald Trump now the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, former President George W. Bush “does not plan to participate in or comment on the presidential race,” a spokesman said Wednesday.
...
And George W. Bush — whose decision was first reported by The Associated Press – isn’t the only one in his family who will be sitting out the election. A spokesman for George H.W. Bush told The Texas Tribune that the former president is “retired from politics.”
“He came out of retirement to do a few things for Jeb,” Bush 41 spokesman Jim McGrath told the media outlet. “But those were the exceptions that proved the rule.”

G H W B started the unraveling of Reagan policy as soon as he was sworn in. By the time his son was done, the nation was teetering on the verge of collapse. Two or three trillion dollars were required to set it straight.
By the time boy wonder (GW) was sworn in, we had already accumulated around 10 million illegals. By the time he was done, we had another ten at least.
These two consummate assholes should stay away from any government functions. They should refrain from backing anyone. They should be persona non gratis for the remainder of their lives.
Reagan left a fine legacy. These to teamed up with Bill Clinton and Barack Obama to destroy it.
Donald Trump will have to rebuild everything they helped destroy.
Those four presidents should become known as “the Destroyers”. That’s all they turned out to be.

Bill Clinton
G W Bush
Barack Husein Obama
The Destroyers!
So when the Bushes state they’ll stay away, about all I can respond with is that I’m glad we didn’t have to use law enforcement to achieve it.
That’s probably for the best
Uh, the “con”vention hasn’t been held yet and I do NOT trust prince preibus or the gopE as far as I can throw them.
Now the healing begins!
Who wants these in the punchbowl anyway? Good riddance.
Most of us held our noses and voted for them. And we have been living with the consequences of their big government, globalist policies, including Obama which was the direct result of these failed policies. We don’t want either of them or the Jebster anywhere near the convention. I hope they and Professor Romney take a “three hour tour” and end up stranded on a desert island in the South Pacific
The old Bush can barely hold his head up. I wouldn’t expect him there anyway.
GW Bush is a different story. Trump rejects Bush’s tenure. He rejects Bush’s efforts at amnesty, his war in Iraq, and his gross over-spending.
And they are all things to really love. :>)
Bill Clinton
G W Bush
Barack Husein Obama
The Destroyers!
Carve their faces on a mountain in South Dakota...then BLOW IT UP!
Are the Bush’s merely impetuous, entitled, pretenders?
or just seriously stuck in their beloved
golden cloaca of Saudi Arabia?
Showing responsibility and leadership. NOT!
they can suck it up as we are so often told over many years and see how they like it.
Does that mean, we won’t get into any stupid wars?
They are joined at the hip. COMPROMISED: CLINTON, BUSH, AND THE CIA. Clinton made his deal with the CIA to get his shot at the presidency. He allowed massive cocaine drops into Arkansas that helped destroy inner cities.
Yeah, me too. We now see that they are part of that ‘group’ no one talks about.
This rather spells the end to any hope GeorgeP might have had. People have long memories and will remember Uncle George and Pops failing to support the People’s choice.
THO, I think 43 would be a drag on the ticket, and 41 really IS old at 91 and should be retired from politics. In fact, I wish ALL former presidents would retire and stay off the stage.
This is proof positive George Bush has always been just a Democrat disguised as a Republican.
I guess they do not care about the economic future of this country or Supreme Court nominees.
Can’t go along with Trump because he is saying that he is going to correct all the DUMB-ASS mistakes those two made while they were being controlled by every big donor they had.
THEY WON’T BE MISSED ANYMORE THEN THEY ARE NOW.
WOW I had no idea my vote was for the establishment when I voted 3 times for a Bush. Are they moving to Canada too?
