"George W. Bush and his father, George H. W. Bush, will be sitting out the presidential election and have no plans to endorse Donald Trump, a spokesman said on Wednesday.
"The Washington Post reported that it is the first time in five presidential election cycles that Bush 41 is not endorsing the Republican nominee.
"A spokesman for his son, Bush 43, made a statement Wednesday evening after Ohio Gov. John Kasich followed U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz to the exit, noted The Guardian.
" 'President George W. Bush does not plan to participate in or comment on the presidential campaign," said the spokesman for the two-term president before President Barack Obama.
Jim McGrath, spokesman for George H. W. Bush, told The Guardian that the elder Bush has stepped away from politics.
" 'At age 91, President Bush is retired from politics," McGrath said. "He naturally did a few things to help Jeb, but those were the 'exceptions that proved the rule.'" . . .
