The White House fired back at former Presidents George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush on Saturday, attacking their legacies after both Bushes expressed their displeasure with President Trump in a new book.
“The American people voted to elect an outsider who is capable of implementing real, positive, and needed change – instead of a lifelong politician beholden to special interests,” White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement to The Hill. “If they were interested in continuing decades of costly mistakes, another establishment politician more concerned with putting politics over people would have won.”
In another statement reported by CNN, a White House source slammed the Bush legacy.
“If one presidential candidate can disassemble a political party, it speaks volumes about how strong a legacy its past two presidents really had,” the White House said, according to CNN.
Both Bushes confirmed in the book they did not vote for Trump in the last election.

Was George Bush’s war with Iraq and Afghanistan legal? Did Colin Powell say the truth? Was it worth having so many young innocent American servicemen and women slaughtered because of it, in a foreign Country? We have to re-think the legacy of George Bush.
At that point when he went to war the USA was behind him… Almost no one said don’t do it. People wanted vengeance on 9/11
Beyond sad. I used to respect Bush junior. Never criticized oboma but will go after trump. Just shows me where his real self really is. A real establishment alligator. No respect no more. Again I would of had no problem had he criticized them both. But this is to much.
White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is superbly great. She always has brilliant responses to everything and everyone.
