It comes as no surprise to President Trump that the late first lady, Barbara Bush held him in low regard. "I have heard that she was nasty to me, but she should be. Look what I did to her sons," he told The Washington Times in an interview published Thursday.

 

...
 

President Trump soundly defeated Bush's son, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, in the 2016 primaries, and often disparaged him as "low-energy." Her other son, former President George W. Bush, was also a frequent target of attacks by Mr. Trump, as well, largely for his handling of 9/11 and prosecution of the Iraq War.

 

"Look, she's the mother of somebody that I competed against. Most people thought he [Jeb Bush] was going to win and he was quickly out," Mr. Trump told the Washington Times.

 

"I hit him very hard in South Carolina," he said. "Remember? He was supposed to win South Carolina and I won it in a landslide. I hit him so hard.

 

"That's when his brother came to make the first speech for him," Mr. Trump recalled. "And I said, 'What took you so long?'"

 

In the end, the president seems to think her dislike of him is justified: "She was nasty to me, but she should be."

 

This is actually a pretty sober reading of Barbara Bush from Trump.
