BPR: After nearly a decade of staying out of the political scene, Bush is hitting the campaign trail to help candidates in his home state of Texas – with one glaring omission.
“While he prefers to consider himself retired from politics, President Bush recognizes how important it is to keep the Senate and decided to help a few key candidates,” Bush spokesman Freddy Ford told Politico.
The former president held a closed-door event for San Antonio’s Rep. Will Hurd and next week will hold an event in Dallas for Rep. Pete Sessions. Bush is also scheduled to headline upcoming fundraisers for Florida Gov. Rick Scott running for Senate, North Dakota Senate candidate Kevin Cramer, Missouri Senate candidate Josh Hawley, and Indiana Senate candidate Mike Braun.
Noticeably absent from the list of recipients of Bush support? Texas Sen. Ted Cruz who is currently in a close race with his Democratic opponent Rep. Beto O’Rourke. more
SNIP: Cruz doesn’t need Bush. He has Trump.
Bush retired from politics in 1990 ish…he had a warm feeling down his leg in 2001 and then just gave it a bit of a petting as the mood arouse….
Bad_Bush
He better have plenty of mints if Moochelle aka Sassie tags along. Her road kill breath could take paint off a barn.
Fuggim
When W hits the campaign trail I hope he breaks his knuckles.
Cruz has Beto – what more could he ask for? 🙂
never have i been so disappointed that my beloved bush is a globalist
and turned a blind eye to our corrupt gov and went to war with iraq
and let our Americans get killed and maimed for nothing
bush=illuminati
not for the USA
very sad and disappointed and feel very decieved
never heard a peep from him while obama and hillary were trying to take down our country’s sovereignty
and also pals around with bill clinton a known pedophile
evil et all
Yes Southernsue.
If not for W’s numerous missteps, Obama would never have been elected. No, I’m not a fan.
Good strategy to split the dem vote.
GWB is a leftist America basher; Ted is a conservative America lover. The Rove/Bush team spent $250,000.000 trying to defeat this conservative 6 years ago.
Bush hates conservatives! Ted is conservative!
why cruz didnt bow out gracefully and endorse Trump? He let his anger get the best of him? A weird quirk in an otherwise (what appears to be ) an upstanding guy.
I wonder whats up boooooshes sleeve. It cant be to actually help Trump can it?
well they would be no trumpers for sure but need them i guess.
the bushes are filthy criminals.
signed: a conservative Texan
Bush wants to get even for his brothers humiliation at the hands of Trump.
He decides to attack conservatives, and now everyone will hate the jerk. Smart move ya dim wit.
