By Rudy Takala Mar 18th
Former President George W. Bush said in a Thursday interview that Januarys unrest in Washington, D.C. made him sick.
I cant remember what I was doing, but I was sick to my stomach to see our nations Capitol being stormed by hostile forces, Bush said in an interview with the Texas Tribune. And it really disturbed me to the point where I did put out a statement, and Im still disturbed when I think about it. It undermines rule of law and the ability to express yourself in peaceful ways in the public square. This was an expression that was not peaceful.
Bush made the comment during an online appearance at this years South by Southwest conference, where he promoted his new book, Out of Many, One: Portraits of Americas Immigrants.
Asked whether he believed for President Joe Biden stole the election, Bush replied, No. Asked whether former President Donald Trump had threatened democracy, Bush gave the same answer.

No wonder he was disgusted at Trump's ham-handed attempt.
