#1 Who actually cares what butt-hurt former swamp denzians think. President Trump is succeeding where they failed.

#2 You know, I actually despise Bush II more than Obama - though I consider both to be monkeys.

#3 Obama put us $20 trillion in debt. He also was the most divisive POTUS in recent memory. He participated in the Clinton's corruption by not doing anything to prevent it. He also weaponized the government against citizens. He made the worst deal in history with Iran--Maybe Neville Chamberlain vies for this honor. George W. kept mum for 8 years while Obama hammered him for everything; now he chooses to speak out against Trump. Moreover, the Patriot Act ends up taking away basic rights/freedoms of citizens. WTF?

#4 Bush just publicly affirmed that he has more in common with Obama than with Trump. Let the ramifications of that sink in.

#5 GWB was a vast disappointment from the time he didn't name the enemy.

I've always thought that the Bushes represented the concept of noblesse oblige as applied to the US. They were the all knowing aristocracy ruling the Plebs for the plebs own good. HW hasn't really dumped on Reagan but I'm sure he wanted to.

Oh, they may want to consider just how wide they want to open the Overton window. Especially Obama. You think criminal prosecutions might rattle a few cages?

#6 'Low Energy Jeb' lost the election and pi**ed away $43m USD. Please get over it.

#7 President Trump announces sale of California to Mexico. Border wall will cost significantly more. Perhaps this is why everyone is upset.

#8 Full Inner Party press.

#9 Everyone is upset because the formers, left and right, have been shown to be weak, ineffectual and interested only in continuing their own dynasty. I only hope Trump keeps up the fight.
