Bush’s comments made no mention of fellow Republican Trump,

This translation has been automatically generated and has not been verified for accuracy.Former President George W. Bush said on Tuesday the killing of George Floyd reflected a “shocking failure” concerning racism in the country, and urged that protesters be heard, in sharp contrast to fellow Republican Donald Trump’s get-tough approach.

“The only way to see ourselves in a true light is to listen to the voices of so many who are hurting and grieving,” Bush said in a statement. “Those who set out to silence those voices do not understand the meaning of America – or how it becomes a better place.” The latest incident of an unarmed black man dying at the hands of a white police officer raises troubling questions that need to be confronted, he said.

Lol bush definitely isn’t racist i mean he’s gotta have atleast 5 colour tvs at home...

Ya, protesters not the rioters

He had a chance to help his Nation long time ago! But he didn’t put a legacy! If he brought at that time changes, GeorgeFloyd and others wouldn’t be death and people would stay at Home to be safe!

When a war criminal who is responsible for the deaths of millions of civilians is saying you took it too far, that speaks some volumes.

Till they start talking about war crimes tribunals....

Dubya is a bit different without Cheney's hand up his butt!

A war criminal giving advice...That is pathetic

Protesters yes, looters and thugs beating people up and killing them, NO!

Protesters heard ✅ looters 🥁

Considering his history should the G&M being interviewing that man. I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole.

From the mouth of someone lied to the people of the US, and those around the world, and had Americans invade another country with it's clueless allies, and completely destroy it for the profit of the rich. Yeah what he has to say matters.

G-Dub LIED about Weapons of Mass Destruction and used that lie to GO TO WAR with Iraq.

Now he says that!

G-Dub is corrupt AF

Remember When the MSMDefcon101 🤡 Called Him Hitler-Chimp for 8 Years FunMemories

He sure as shit didn't listen to them in 2003.

Protesters should be heard, looters and rioters should be crushed.

Heard, respected and cared about ❤️
