Trump says Barbara Bush 'should be' nasty to him: 'Look what I did to her sons'
CNN Politics ^ | April 5, 2019 | Nick Neville

President Donald Trump suggested in a new interview that former first lady Barbara Bush had a right to be "nasty" to him after his long-running criticisms of her sons.

"I have heard that she was nasty to me, but she should be. Look what I did to her sons," Trump told The Washington Times in an Oval Office interview Thursday.

Trump was responding to anecdotes in a new biography of Barbara Bush by Susan Page, who writes that at the time of her death, the former first lady no longer considered herself a Republican due to Trump's rise.

During the 2016 primary, Trump consistently hammered Bush's sons, labeling Jeb Bush "low energy" and criticizing George W. Bush's presidency. Coming into the 2016 race, Jeb Bush was considered among the front-runners for the Republican nomination, but after he had a disappointing showing in the South Carolina primary -- due in no small part to Trump's repeated attacks during the campaign -- he dropped out of the race.

I have come to detest the Booshes almost as much as I detest the Clintoons.

What is with the press always asking questions about the dead. What is their morbid fascination. Let the dead lie.

I said what I said. She was critical. She should be, she is their mother. DEAL WITH IT. Perfectly normal. I didn’t like them, they don’t like me.

She could have maneuvered around the topic of Trump and said nothing. Once she crossed the line...she got a dose of reality. I don’t see anything wrong with the commentary.

As a fun thought experiment, try to find ways that the Bush/Clinton/Obama presidencies differ other than in style.
You want NWO in 60s counterculture style...Clinton.
You want NWO in red white and blue, christian, wave the flag style...Bush.
You want NWO in black revolutionary socialist hip skinny guy...Obama.

Other than how the handle the Christmas tree and state dinners, the 3 presidencies were identical.

Also, Bush 41 lost to Clintoon because he went back to his NWO roots and sold out the Reagan base.

Trump destroyed the Bush family politically.

And that's a hell of an awesome win for the American people.
