It is our duty to do our part, so I have risen up to share information to give clarity to the US Republic. So much disinformation and toxicity it is important we have a clear understanding so we can make informed decisions moving forward.

This needs to happen....The only way we can grab the attention of the people in power is taking away the only thing they care about.

However upsetting this might be, I believe it was staged so we can make sure MAGA takes ownership of failed policies. There has to be a method to them madness.

I know the article is old...but I wondered what his views were especially since America is under attack..he was a horrible president, guess I expected too much @Georgebush. Need more influencers to speak out.

Why won't George W. Bush talk publicly about Donald Trump? It's simple.

While people often call on Bush to speak out against his GOP successor, he is standing by his pledge not to critique other presidents.
