1st time since 1981 a Bush or Clinton is not in a postion of major national poltical influence

For the 1st time since 1981 a Bush or a Clinton is not in a position of major national US political influence. An era in US politics ended yesterday.

I am not sad to see it go.

I did vote for both Bushes, but I agree, it's about time.

Yep, Campaigned donate and worked to elect both of the Bushes out of party loyalty and because we had troops in the field in 2004. Never was comfortable with them in Office. Really disappointed in them after they left office.

Trump scored a double last night in erasing the Clinton clan from our political landscape, and also the Bush dynasty.

It was disgusting to learn that two former Republican presidents would not cast a ballot for the nominee of the GOP.  To me they are now in the ashbin of history.
