Remember that moment during Sen. John McCainâs funeral during which former President George W. Bush handed Michelle Obama a cough drop and the two exchanged a laugh?
Well, on Wednesday, that moment played out again at the funeral of Bushâs father. As Dubya was greeting the distinguished guests in the front row... along with Donald Trump and his captive wife migrant genius Melania, Bush exchanged a word with Mrs. Obama and appeared to hand her something. It was probably a candy or a cough drop, because thatâs one of his go-to moves.
It wouldâve been a great moment except one of the two who shared in it was George W. Bush. His father just died so I will save my thoughts on that, but apparently Bush would like to believe that he and Mrs. O are friends when Iâm sure sheâs Mariah Carey on the issue:
Fine, the two might actually be friends, but I donât want that to be true. Michelle Obama is a national treasure who recently noted that sheâs been at some of the smartest tables and they âarenât that smartâ and I immediately assumed she was talking about Bush Jr. The Rootâs imaginary statistics team found that Michelle Obama was voted first in the âBest friend in my headâ category, followed closely by Oprah and Beyonce.
It looks like Mrs. Obama might actually be Bushâs best friend in his head, too, and I just canât wait for that awkward moment when Barack approaches Dubya and says: âLook here playboy, kill it with all that cough drop shit because thatâs my wife.â
