New biography claims former First Lady Barbara Bush so fiercely disliked President Trump that she says he caused her heart problems.
The book detailed Barbara Bush's long-standing dislike for Trump, which went back decades. In diary entries from the 1990s, which she made available to Page, she described Trump as"greedy, selfish, and ugly." By 2016, she was"dismayed by the nation's divisions and by the direction of the party she had worked for, and for so long."
The former first lady suffered what she described as a heart attack in 2016, stemming from a long battle with congestive heart failure and chronic pulmonary disease. She blamed the episode on the nasty 2016 election cycle and Trump's relentless bashing of her son, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who was one of his rivals in the Republican presidential primaries. She told Page that"angst" contributed to the heart episode.
In 2016, Barbara Bush would vote for her son Jeb Bush for president in the general election, while her husband voted for 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. After Trump won, her husband called the president-elect to offer congratulations and Barbara Bush wrote in her diary that Trump"was very nice" in that conversation.
"Dear Mrs. Trump, The world thought I was writing this note to Bill Clinton. I am glad that I am not. I wanted to welcome you to the First Ladies very exclusive club," she wrote."My children were older and therefore I did not have the problems you do. Whatever you decide to do is your business and yours alone. Living in the White House is a joy and their only job is to make you happy. If you decide to stay in NYC that will be fine also.
