"Look what I did to her sons," the president told The Washington Times.
President Donald Trump said Thursday he wasn’t surprised that late first lady Barbara Bush wasn’t a fan of his, reasoning that her opposition, documented in a new book about her life, stemmed from his treatment of her sons during the 2016 election.
Bush’s dislike of Trump did deepen during the presidential election, in which Trump ridiculed former President George W. Bush and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who was running against Trump in the primary. “I hit him very hard in South Carolina. Remember? He was supposed to win South Carolina and I won it in a landslide,” Trump told the Times. “I hit him so hard. That’s when his brother came to make the first speech for him. And I said, ‘What took you so long?’”
