I sincerely hope that POTUS, Donald J, Trump attends the funeral of Ex-POTUS, George H.W. Bush in honor of his outstanding, long term service to our nation and our people!!!
Bush like all of us human beings, has his flaws, but his successful accomplishments in his life far outweigh his faults.
We must remember the young Bush did not enter Yale, (Where he was accepted) when he graduated from high school, he signed on with the the U.S.Navy, where in eleven months, he became the Navy's youngest aviator (Pilot). Bush flew fifty eight missions, when in September, 1944 his aircraft, a Grumman TBM Avenger aircraft was shot down during a bombing mission. Bush parachuted to safety and was later picked up and rescued by U.S. Navy submarine, Bush was only twenty-two (22) years old.
Once the senior Bush was asked at formal dinner he was attending, "What was his most important assignment of life?". He immediately answered, "Being a good Husband, a good Father and a good Grandfather!!!" This man is an American who needs to be honored by his fellow peer Americans...period!!!
The real fight will be over who delivers a eulogy Bill or Hillary. Hillary could start her presidential bid right there and then.
Your definition of “outstanding service to our country” and mine differ wildly.
“If he’s not invited the the Bush klan is not as classy as we believe. “
Spoiler alert, the Bush “Clan” is not as classy as we believe.
If he’s invited, he will. He has honor and class, unlike anyone in the Bush clan.
He has to be invited.
Or do u expect him to crash the funeral?
I was in deep sorrow when Reagan died.
I don’t have any or row for Bush’s passing.
He served our country in time of war.
And I I am grateful for that.
However, I am not impressed with his
political career.
HW just cost DJT his man of the year status.
Any American boy or girl at eighteen years old that becomes a certified Naval pilot airman, and then is shot down in combat defending our nation, deserves the 100% admiration of the American people!!!
I would certainly expect him to attend and assume that the Bush family has the class to invite him.
I may not agree with the Bush family on everything, but I do think they are a class act, unlike the McCain Klan.
Long term service?
Yes, he worked a long time for the globalists and undermining America. I sometimes wonder if we’re all talking about the same person. I thought freepers were educated on political matters.
Only if he’s invited. If the Bushies decide to be rude and crude and not invite the sitting POTUS, then the onus is on them and they will look like low lifes.
Was wondering that myself. This isn’t a Christmas tree decorating party, it’s the state funeral of a former president.
I assume you are talking about McNoName What if he later becomes a turncoat piece of excrement who screws the voters and the country at every turn? Because that's what he did. The only respect he gets from me is that I refrain from pissing on his grave.
Why micromanage.
The Bushies believe that they p0wn the RINO Party of at least Tejas.
We’ll see just how much class they may still possess.
Heb! and the guacamole bowls prove that.
At the time, for that deed but later acts weigh in the balance as well.
Each person will have their own calculus balancing the harm of championing globalism and the heroism of youth in this case.
Only if he is invited, but he won’t be. The Bushes detest Trump, especially since he humiliated the Anointed Son, Yeb!
Ah, you were talking about Bush getting shot down, not NoName.
I don’t have a problem with Bush getting respect. But imagine Trump sitting there having to be ridiculed by a bunch of Rino’s when he is supposed to be attending the funeral of a past president. The press would have a field day, and if you don’t think the speakers would take that opportunity you’ve been under a rock.
Trump would totally go and offer his respects because that is the kind of person he is. I don’t believe they will invite him and I think if he does go they won’t be able to contain themselves.
No win for the president....He may go anyway.
I stabnd by my McNoName comments.
It all depends on if the “New World Order” gang invites him.
If invited, it would be entirely appropriate for President Donald Trump to attend.
I would hope that the service would. not be to excoriate the current President.
