Arick Wierson and Bradley Honan urge an important endorsement<\/a> of Joe Biden from the only uncommitted former living President:<\/p>\n

After the debate and the\u00a0recent endorsement of Biden by Cindy McCain, the widow of Sen. John McCain,<\/a>\u00a0it’s now time for former President George W. Bush to finally put an end to the Trump presidency by endorsing Joe Biden for President \u2014 and in doing so, save the country and the GOP from itself.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And I won’t argue with them. As the only living former Republican President, it’s a little difficult to understand President Bush’s hesitancy as he watches his Party burning in infamy, but perhaps he’s waiting for an opportune moment. If he is, that moment is now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

It’s not difficult to make a case for Bush having made many errors of judgment, but the fact remains that for some portion of the Republican Party, he remains a respected figure – according to the authors of the above opinion piece, 70+%.<\/p>\n

If he chooses to endorse Biden, he might be wisest to place all his eggs in one basket, and that’s the peaceful transfer of power<\/strong><\/em> basket. This is not a partisan issue; it is part of the bedrock of the nation. That one candidate has not committed to it should be enough to disqualify said candidate, and Bush should eloquently make that the fundamental issue, the reason that Trump should be loathed, politically, by all voters, even those who have gained power by him, and why Biden, who simply Yes!<\/strong><\/em> every time he’s asked to commit to it, should be their selection for President.<\/p>\n

Come on, President Bush. I didn’t vote for you, and you left so many issues behind that this country is still torn by them. But this is an easy one in which you can swing a mighty big hammer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
