CNN Repeatedly Scolds Trump for Paying Respects to George H.W. Bush (Watch)
It’s always about President Trump to the left, no matter the occasion.
Whether a former president’s body lays in the Capitol Rotunda means nothing.
Trump, Trump, Trump – 24/7!
From Daily Wire:
CNN repeatedly attacked President Donald Trump on Monday for putting politics aside and paying respects to former President George H.W. Bush in a segment that exemplified the network’s willingness to criticize the president for ratings and not for his actions.

CNN’s Jamie Gangel: “He’s not one to mend fences too readily. I think he’s doing this because he feels he has to do it and I’m also assuming General Kelly has had a big hand in it.“
“I do know from the Bush family that they are very appreciative and think the White House has just bent over backwards, gone to great lengths, been extraordinarily helpful. That said, I just can’t help but wonder if there was a thought bubble over Donald Trump’s head just know, what he was thinking as he stood there.“
CNN’s Jeffrey Engel: “I have to imagine he was thinking, ‘how much longer do I have to stand here?’
Gangel: “It’s, it’s, he had to be there, he did it, um, I think it’s interesting he did it because maybe he could have waited till the National Cathedral and then he saluted. It was somewhat theatrical, uh, in nature, but it’s, I, I can’t imagine that this is very comfortable for him, these moments and I think it is going to be fascinating to watch the cathedral on Wednesday and how he interacts with these other presidents and how he sits there during these eulogies.“
Engel: “I think we need to be a little bit thoughtful and careful about how we interpret what President Trump is doing here. David Gergen just mentioned we need to give him credit for not tweeting out nasty things about President Bush. I’m concerned that we shouldn’t give credit to someone for not kicking dirt on the grave of a person who just passed away.“

The Associated Press “honored” former President George H.W. Bush in death the best way they knew how – by taking a liberal stance and bashing his legacy.
The disrespect is outrageous.
The worst part is how they handled Cuban dictator Fidel Castro’s death.
See the difference:

Reactions:
A President died. How about you show the family some respect and not belittle the deceased? This is just part of what is wrong with America, zero empathy for others. Rest easy with Barbara Mr. President. https://t.co/gzKSj0xcbt

Shame on you AP. You were once more reputable than this. The
Patrician verbage tells me you are trying to invoke some type of class ware fare. Yeah keep telling folks a real class system exists here. You know class is very fluid here and depends on ones work ethic. https://t.co/DgCCpgfLig— Upstate NY Girl (on Parler as UpstateNYGirl) (@UpstateNYGirl2) December 2, 2018
What is wrong with you at the AP? Bush 41 was the youngest carrier pilot in WW2. He was shot down over the Pacific. He held every major office one can hold. A thoroughly decent man, adoring husband, and loving father. What pathetic people you are

AP deleted their heinous tweet – two days later:
We’ve deleted a tweet and revised a story on the death of President George H.W. Bush because the tweet and the opening of the story referenced his 1992 electoral defeat and omitted his WWII service.
— The Associated Press (@AP) December 2, 2018
Took you guys 2 full days to come up with a revision. Eat shit. https://t.co/316qqFp2xL

They wait minutes after a person has died to start smearing them but take their time to finally delete and give a half assed apology https://t.co/U3Yn1QPA1v

The stock markets will be closed on Wednesday in Bush’s honor, and President Trump has ordered flags at half-staff for 30 days in remembrance.
Trump: “Air Force One will be taking myself and a large group of our people back to Washington. It will then be reset and it will be sent to Houston to pick up the casket of President Bush and then be brought back to Washington.“
Trump: “We’ll be sending Air Force One, which is a special tribute that he deserves very much and it’s my honor, and again, he’ll be greatly missed. Terrific person, terrific man.“
The president sent Air Force Two pick up the casket of deceased Arizona Senator John McCain.
