As many Republicans continue to buck their partyā€™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.

ā€¦

He noted that Bush is ā€œapparently above such petty concerns,ā€ pointing to recent reports that said he isĀ not endorsing anyone in the race for the White House.Ā Multiple outlets reported that Bushā€™s office released a statement that said: ā€œPresident Bush retired from presidential politics years ago.ā€

ā€œBut it doesnā€™t work that way. When your country calls, you canā€™t just roll it over to voicemail because you donā€™t want to deal with it, especially when you are an elder statesman like an ex-president. Patriotism is for life,ā€ Truax wrote, noting that former President Jimmy Carter said he hopes he can liveĀ to cast his voteĀ for Harris.

    Getting Cheneyā€™s endorsement isnā€™t the flex folks seem to be acting like it is. ā€œHuzzah, a lesser devil supports us instead of a literal fascistā€

      For real. I will never understand it, myself. I canā€™t imagine anyone is going to change their vote because he slithered in here and rasped ā€œHaaaaarriiiiiiiissssssssā€. He didnā€™t do anything that required a spine, heā€™s still a despicable old bastard.
