George H.W. Bush to vote for Hillary

Former President George H.W. Bush is bucking his party's presidential nominee and plans to vote for Hillary Clinton in November, according to a member of another famous political family, the Kennedys.

Bush, 92, had intended to stay silent on the White House race between Clinton and Donald Trump, a sign in and of itself of his distaste for the GOP nominee. But his preference for the wife of his own successor, President Bill Clinton, nonetheless became known to a wider audience thanks to Kathleen Hartington Kennedy Townsend, the former Maryland lieutenant governor and daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy.

On Monday, Townsend posted a picture on her Facebook page shaking hands next to the former president and this caption: "The President told me he’s voting for Hillary!!”

In a telephone interview, Townsend said she met with the former president in Maine earlier today, where she said he made his preference known that he was voting for a Democrat. “That’s what he said,” she told POLITICO.

No living president supports Trump and I guess it's safe to assume they're all going to vote against him too...maybe. Slay :golfclap:

This doesn't come as a surprise. He and Bill are the bestest of friends. Outside politics they are just people... The whole party thing gets on my nerves. People should vote for the candidate and not the party.

It's hard to tell if this reflects poorly on Trump, Hillary or both :smh:
 

Slay though I suppose.

Trump, by a mile! Former Presidents are party leaders. They stick with their party. This would be highly unusual.

Unless people see this as "establishment" supporting "establishment", and that Hillary isn't really Democrat or Republican, but that these elites are all just power-hungry :lolga:

Maybe it reflects worse on Trump, but it's hardly a glowing endorsement for Hillary.

 The elder Bush has a 63 per cent favorability rating overall, eighty eight per cent with Republicans. As far as living Presidents go, that's pretty glowing.
