Will George W. Bush endorse Joe Biden?
Congressional Republicans can’t even stand up to rebuke President Trump for falsely accusing a cable news host of murder — despite pleas to stop from the family of the woman, who died of natural causes back in 2001.
But imagine if former President Bush, as Trump’s most recent Republican predecessor, backed a Democrat. Bush’s voice has the singular power to reach moderate Republicans and Republican-leaning independent voters, freeing them to walk away from the Party of Trump.

Nice try Juan. No, Trump supporters are going to beat the living daylights out of Biden in November and even the Former President, Bush, won't be able to drag Biden over the finish line! Pretty sad that even Juan is admitting Joe Biden isn't going to win enough votes from his own party to be President, he has to try to get Republicans to help him. Sad!

Juan Williams is the most pathetic pundit along with the gang at CNN. Fox should replace him with his son who is much more sensible.

He might, but no one will listen. The Republican base is over the Bushes, witness Jeb's humiliating loss in 2016 despite having a $120 million war chest going into the primaries. His delegate count was four.

Dims are so desperate with their abysmal choice of Biden that they are turning to the Bush Family to save them? Earth to Juan, very few people in the GOP resect the Bushes anymore. If they endorse Biden, it will just make us all-the-more excited that we're not voting for ¡Yeb!

Laughable, wishful thinking. Bush has no voice at all among Republicans, considering at best he was the lesser of the Gore and Kerry evils, and his family probably voted for PIAPS.

Guess what Juan? I do not care who endorses Biden and I do not listen to those who want to tell me "who to vote for". I am not a sheep. Bush was a great disappointment as president and he is a great disappointment as an ex-president. However, I do admire the work he does for veterans. Just as I admire what Carter has done for Habitat for Humanity. But these good deeds do not mean anything when it comes to my political leanings.

The only reason W was elected president was his opponents.
I want a ballot which allows me to vote FOR or AGAINST a candidate
I'll wager as many voters would mark against the loser as for the victor

No one gives a rats cornholio about W. He took early retirement in 2006 and was a BIG part of the problems we have today. HE HELP BEGET OBAMA. Just as Nixon made Jimmah possible. W was a lousy President-turns out. Trump will wear his non-endorsement as a badge of honor.

Nice try, Juan. As for W, I am sorry I supported him only to discover he is a deep state New Worlder like his father. Google "George Bush New World Order" and see for yourself.

Juan, even if W kissed Joe's posterior on national TV, no one would care.
W is as irrelevant as an 8 track and only half as useful.

I wish he would show his true colors. Even W is smart enough to know it would be a lose lose situation for him to back someone as awful as biden. W will do whatever he can to stop Trump, but jumping on a sinking ship isn't part of that. Especially when so many well known rats are jumping off the ship every single day.

Juan Williams is so far past his sell by date, it is incredible - just like he lack credibility. He may be among the top ten dumbest people in America - like Dementia Joe, Crazy Maxines, Swallows-well, Nervous Nancy - but he is in the running. Time for Fox to let him go for being such a racist fool.

If Bush back Biden, his entire family's political ambitions will be toast.

I don't know Bush personally, but I know several members of his inner circle extremely well.
1. They hate Trump enough to do it. They mainly hate Trump for winning and starting to dismantle their gravy train. But they also hate him because they consider him boorish. Real Romney-types that consider eating with the wrong fork a mortal sin.
2. Bush strikes me as dumb enough to do this, but the power-mongers in his family won't let him.

Our "not a conservative" troll has chimed in. I admit the Bush family does have class, but they did sell out the country to the globalists and open borders crowd. Manners are nice, but sometimes you have to fight.

Republicans are not like Democrats. Someone should tell Juan that.
We don't blindly follow some old woman or her butt plug friend Hoyer and do what they say.
Bush and his wife have shot themselves in the foot too many times since leaving office.

Both Bushes were extremely disappointing, we voted for them to do battle with the left on out behalf and later found out they considered fighting to be unseemly. They adopted a fetal crouch strategy and got rolled.

Juan diminished himself by writing this article, and I diminished myself by reading the stupid thing. The Hill can go to hell with its approach to politics.
Juan is so painfully inept on The Five, some of his co-hosts seem about to strangle him.

Why do so many pundits confuse "establishment" with "conservatism?" A Bush endorsement of Biden would only be interesting to those in the establishment circles, like Juan. The rest of the actual conservatives in the country would not give a damn.
