We as a country didn’t decide to become divided. Powerful people used divisive rhetoric to divide us for their benefit.

Jenna, you come from great stock. I am a Democrat but I loved your Grand Pa too. He was a man of tremendous integrity and NOTHING is more important.

[RebelBuddha]

I’ve really come to like Jenna. I was not a fan of her father’s presidency, but in retrospect think he was and is a decent man. How things have deteriorated in 15+ years. 😢

I am not American and we often look across the border in shock. Having said I am impressed with Jenna's comments. She reminds us that politicians are human and they make huge personal sacrifices to do this work.

We need to be kinder and honour those who stand for office.

Jenna is such a kindhearted person - a testament to her good hearted family.

As a Democrat and an American, , I applaud you Ms.Bush. Thank you.

[marcverresen]

Jenna is such a good soul. A real inspiration to be kind to one another. We are all in this world together.

Jenna does such an amazing job at being bipartisan! I know her dad is so incredibly proud of her in this role, as he should be! Well said Jenna! ❤

[cmantillaify]

This country needs more Jenna’s ! Beautifully said. What you said is what makes this country distinctive and great.

[Stacey_Mae]

She's very emotional 😢
Well said Jenna

[hannahwetzel]

I loved what she said about how we forgot that he is human. We are all humans and i think when we post awful things about Biden on social media people forget that you are talking about somebodies dad, father, grandfather, son, etc.

[LovedByYou]

Oh I absolutely love what she said!!! People can feel how they want about President Biden but that man loves his family, holds so much empathy for others, and loves his country without a doubt in his mind. ❤ IHope that’s how he can be remembered

I don't know how people continue after losing children. His first wife and daughter both died in a car crash, and his son died 10 years ago of brain cancer. He also has overcome a stuttering disorder. My respect goes out to him and his family.

I'm a Democrat but I remember when George HW Bush lost. He was sad but conceded gracefully. He could have acted like Trump but he was a class act. I had some great conversations with McCain supporters when he conceded. I disagreed with him politically but respected him. I miss those days, and yes I blame Trump for that because he was so divisive.

[lauradunn-xymw]

See this is how the political parties should interact. I’m a Democrat, but even back when the bushes were president you still had respect for your president because he ran his self presidential.

Thank you Jenna! Well said! 👏👏🏼👏🏾👏🏿👏🏻👏

[sheilamesick]

Jenna your words helped me this morning, I hope the world not only remembers Joe Biden and his service to our country and democracy, but also he is a human.

[twain]

Nobody from Bush/Cheney, and honestly none but a couple of Trump/Pence were in attendance at the RNC convention.. THAT speaks volumes.

[Kty]

I’m from the uk and totally agree with what Jenna has said! Xo💛

[stevenjamison]

Unlike Trump, history will be kind to President Biden.
