As clearly as never before, two former Republican US presidents have accused incumbent Donald Trump character of weakness. "He's an encoder," said George H. W. Bush, who was president from 1989 to 1993. His son George W. Bush (2001 to 2009) also criticizes him sharply.

Bush senior told historian Mark Updegrove that he was holding Trump for someone who was only anxious to feed his own ego. His son said about Trump that "this guy doesn't know what it means to be President". He also accused him of enfolding public anger. Far and son expressed view that current US president had "blown up" Republican Party.

The two former presidents expressed ir views in new book The Last Republicans ("The last Republican") of Updegrove, which will be launched on 14 November. Previously, author gave insights into interviews with two ex-presidents, from which TV channel CNN and The New York Times quoted. None of two bushes voted for Trump in US election about a year ago: The far chose Democrat Hillary Clinton, son for "none of those".

"I don't like him"

The title of Updegroves book is inspired by a New York Times report by a Bush juniors quote. During U.S. campaign 2016, Bush told author that he was concerned that he could possibly have been last Republican president. According to Updegroves, quote referred to report as a still probable election victory for Hillary Clinton; After Trump's victory, however, he has now ambiguous something, Updegrove said to leaf: if you look at values that bushes or even former Republican President Ronald Reagan (1981-1989) shared, "These are in stark contrast to values for which Republican Party today stands ".

George W. Bush lamented against Updegrove of newspaper according to Trump's lack of humility. In Bush family, this trait has a certain tradition and is also expected by a president, but at Trump one cannot see m, said Bush.

Bush senior became clearer. "I don't like him," he said Updegrove, refore, in May 2016 about Trump. "I don't know much about him, but I know he's a teller." Therefore, he is not too enthusiastic about himself, when he imagines Trump as leader of country. Not service to public motivate Trump, but he was apparently driven by a "certain ego", Bush said.
