Bush’s Public Snub: A New Low in Presidential Decorum
Imagine this: a former president, George W. Bush, walking into the National Cathedral during a state funeral. He bypasses President Trump and Mrs. Trump with a deliberate snub, skipping any semblance of social grace. Instead, he saunters to Barack Obama and delivers a jovial jab to the gut, as if at a fraternity party, not a funeral.
This isn’t just bad manners; it’s emblematic of the Bush dynasty’s disdain for MAGA and, by extension, millions of Americans who have turned their backs on establishment politics.
Check it out:
LOTS OF MATERIAL SO FAR AT JIMMY CARTER'S FUNERAL:
– Trump shakes hands with Mike Pence.
– Obama does not shake Trump or Melania's hand – but shakes everyone else's hands.
– Bush walks right past the Trump's, then slaps Obama in the stomach and shakes hands with everyone else.

Bannon’s Unfiltered Takedown: "You Suck”
Steve Bannon didn’t hold back in describing how President Trump and Mrs. Trump were treated. Calling Bush "the worst president in modern history,” he tore apart the former president’s record, from the failed wars in Afghanistan and Iraq to the financial collapse of 2008.
"George W. Bush is second only to James Buchanan in incompetence,” Bannon declared. "Walking past Trump, a man who unified the GOP and won against all odds, shows the Bush clan’s bitterness and lack of class.”
Bannon didn’t stop there. He targeted the entire Bush apparatus, including Karl Rove, labeling them corrupt, weak, and beholden to corporate interests.
Obama’s Snub and Pence’s Weakness
The jabs weren’t reserved for Bush alone. Bannon noted Obama’s cold shoulder to Trump and the tepid handshake from Mike Pence. "Pence can’t commit to anything, not even a firm handshake,” Bannon quipped. "Trump, sitting there like Charlemagne, overshadowed them all.”
A National Cathedral Farce: Imagine This
Bannon’s critique crescendoed with a scathing review of the funeral program. Amid the hymns and solemnity, Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood performed John Lennon’s "Imagine” — an anthem of atheism in a Christian cathedral.
"Who thought that was a good idea?” Bannon asked incredulously. "This clown show is what we’re saving America from.”
Bush, the Establishment, and the Betrayal of America
The WarRoom host painted Bush’s behavior as a microcosm of the establishment’s failings. From 9/11 to the rise of China, Bannon laid bare the Bush family’s disastrous legacy.
"Bush walked past Trump, the man fixing the mess he created, without an ounce of humility,” Bannon said. "This is who they are — arrogant, out-of-touch elites.”
The Bigger Picture: Trump’s Focus on Saving the Nation
Despite the petty snubs, Bannon emphasized Trump’s focus on the mission at hand: saving America. While the Bushes and their ilk cling to their fading relevance, Trump and MAGA march forward, undeterred.
Final Thoughts: A Movement Undeniable
The spectacle at Jimmy Carter’s funeral wasn’t just a moment of disrespect; it was a revealing snapshot of the old guard’s disdain for the populist revolution reshaping America.
As Bannon closed out the segment, he reminded listeners: "We’re cleaning up this mess, restoring dignity, and putting America First. The Bushes can snub all they want — history will remember who stood for the Republic.”
