- Former first daughter Barbara Bush breaks her silence on why she’s campaigning for Kamala Harris (newsbreak.com)
Barbara Bush, the daughter of former President George W. Bush, is actively campaigning for Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris. Bush, a vocal advocate for women’s rights, cited Harris’s commitment to protecting these rights as a key reason for her support.
Bush’s endorsement of Harris marks a significant shift from her previous stance of not aligning herself with either political party. Her support has been welcomed by Liz Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who is also backing Harris.
The Cheneys are urging Republicans to support Harris to prevent a return of Donald Trump to the presidency. Dick Cheney has stated that Trump cannot be trusted with power and that he will vote for Harris.
Susan Bales Ford, the daughter of former President Gerald Ford, has also endorsed Harris. She emphasized the need to avoid a return to division and disdain for the Constitution, citing the events of January 6th as an example of the dangers of such a path.
