RIP General.

Wow. Amazing how old some of these guys are getting. These were the guys in power when I was out of college already. Now they’re dying in their 90s. Bush, Dole, Scowcroft. Baker’s still around. I think George Shultz turns 100 this year.

Weird, so does Biden!

Scowcroft was part of Bush 41's team. They navigated foreign policy with grace - a deft hand. I despair that we will see men of that stature again, at least in government.

Last GOP president I voted for.

Best president of our time.

Ford or Bush?

LOL.

I was 8 when Ford was last on the ballot.
