George P. Bush Says Hell Vote for Trump in 2020 Election
George P. Bush, Texass General Land Commissioner and nephew and grandson to U.S. presidents, said on June 9 that he will be voting for President Donald Trump in the November 2020 election.
“Trump is the only thing standing between America and socialism,” Bush told The Dallas Morning News in a statement provided by his office.
“Even in a global pandemic where we have had to take unprecedented measures to protect public health, the economy is already returning,” he told the news outlet. “Its clear, America and Texas will continue to be stronger than ever.”
Bush, 44, a Republican, is the grandson of former President George H.W. Bush, who died last year, the nephew of former President George W. Bush, and the son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who was a presidential candidate in 2016. He was first elected land commissioner in 2014.
“I endorsed President Trump in the 2016 election cycle and plan to do so again in 2020,” he said, without providing further details on when he will endorse the president.
In response, Trump thanked Bush on social media for supporting his reelection bid this year.
“Thank you George, great honor!” the president said on Twitter Tuesday.
