As many Republicans continue to buck their party’s nominee and nominate Vice President Harris for the White House, calls are mounting for former President George W. Bush to denounce former President Trump.

The Harris campaign has touted that more than 200 Republicans have endorsed the vice president, including former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and many former Trump insiders. It also includes former vice president to Bush, Dick Cheney.

He noted that Bush is “apparently above such petty concerns,” pointing to recent reports that said he is not endorsing anyone in the race for the White House. Multiple outlets reported that Bush’s office released a statement that said: “President Bush retired from presidential politics years ago.”

But it doesn’t work that way. When your country calls, you can’t just roll it over to voicemail because you don’t want to deal with it, especially when you are an elder statesman like an ex-president. Patriotism is for life,” Truax wrote, noting that former President Jimmy Carter said he hopes he can live to cast his vote for Harris.

      GW was a useful idiot puppet like Reagan and they tried to make trump.

      Dick Cheney already endorsed Kamala, he doesn’t need to stick his hand back up GWs ass and make him say something again.

      Even if he did, it doesn’t mean hes against what trump wants just mad his dad’s buddy Dick Cheney isn’t in power.

      Like, the only positive of trump was getting rid of Cheney. Of course Cheney doesn’t like trump
