This is so uncalled for. Going after a 94-year-old, former President’s promotion of volunteerism. I don’t mind potus being a fighter. I do mind him being rude.

In Montana, Trump takes a strange swipe at @GeorgeHWBush: “Thousand points of light. What does that mean? I know one thing. Make America Great Again we understand. Putting America first we understand. Thousand points of light, I never quite got that one. What the hell is that?”

Because GHW was trying to represent what was great about the US. Of course Trump wouldn't recognize that.

say to him that he is a sack of shit, and therefore he can't be a "point of light". Regarding "Make America Great Again" -- does that require us to kidnap children? What the hell is that?

With all the horrible attacks by Trump against people, that's what does it for him?

That's what he thought bad enough to take issue with and speak out?

That?

You were OK with that. Go Cheney yourself.

After all this is the biggest push back that Republicans have ever mounted against Trump.
