Former President George HW Bush has apologized after an actress claimed he 'sexually assaulted' her while he was in his wheelchair.

Heather Lind, 34, who starred in AMC's series 'Turn: Washington's Spies', made the allegations against the 93-year-old former president on Instagram in a lengthy post with accompanying photos. 

'When I got the chance to meet George H. W. Bush four years ago to promote a historical television show I was working on, he sexually assaulted me while I was posing for a similar photo. He didn't shake my hand. He touched me from behind from his wheelchair with his wife Barbara Bush by his side. He told me a dirty joke,' Lind alleges.

In a statement to DailyMail.com the former president responded: 'President Bush would never - under any circumstance - intentionally cause anyone distress, and he most sincerely apologizes if his attempt at humor offended Ms. Lind.'

If what George I is now “sexual assualt” then Joe Biden should be thrown in jail for life with additional charges of child molestations.

“Seems possibly crude but hardly “assault””

Members of the Left who are in the position to do so are trying to even out or neutralize the sexual assault charges that are being brought against other members of the Left. If they can’t reclaim the moral high ground they imagine they inhabit, they can at least keep the Right from occupying it.

This is rapidly turning into a #MeToo #CryingWolf syndrome. Anything even a simple “hello” is going to be considered sexual assault soon.

It’s a stupid story, stupid even by the low bar of stupidity set by the liberals.

This trivializes sexual assault.

Unfreakinbeliveable!

Talk about punching down on an old 93 invalid man in a wheelchair! Just when it seems the leftists can go no lower; they do. They always find another way to go lower than their previous low benchmark.

This despicable woman, no, woman is too grandiose for her, this slut should be ashamed of herself and be on her knees, yes knees, pleading for forgiveness for being such a lying slut.

Unfortunately these... things... have no shame or conscience at all so they can live with their heinous acts. Karma and God will catch up eventually though.

i guess assault means something different now. sounds like his hand or arm grazed her rear end. Maybe not on purpose. Can’t believe he would risk a grab with Barbara right there, she would tip him out of his wheel chair later, lol.

I may have to sexually assault myself just so I can go on tv and claim it happened to me, too.
