1. I hope he is and turns it into a shit show.

BFEE members deserve no less.

2. that would be great

3. Trump is probably happy about it because

It takes some of the attention off his own misery for a bit. The time covering bush is time not covering trump scandals. I'm sure for once he welcomes not being the center of attention.

5. At first, yes.

Then as the week wears on and the media says great things and stories about Poppy, Dotard will become agitated because he knows nobody will say good things about him when he dies, and wonder how many people will be at his funeral. And, as the media heaps praise on Poppy he will think about how he is puke compared to ANY other president.

6. That Was My First Thought.....

Trump lucks out again. Given the death of Poppy Bush - all attention by the cable news shows will be on GHWB and the activities surrounding his wake and funeral. Trump embarrassing G20 trip will not get the attention it deserves. His supporters will not get a good picture as to what an embarrassment he is to this country and the world.

4. Ostracized to the sidelines. nt

7. Some have been speculating whether Individual-1 will deny the resources for a state funeral...

After all, GHWB was a pretty strong critic of him, to the point of saying that he voted for Hillary Clinton. And I-1 does hold grudges.
