Music fans were shocked when pop star Beyoncé took home the Best Country Album from the Grammy Awards.
Beyoncé could not even believe she took home the top prize in country music.
But NBC viewers were speechless when they heard George Bush’s daughter compare her dad to pop star Beyoncé.
Today’s Republican Party is nothing like it was when Donald Trump first came down the golden escalator in 2015 and declared himself a candidate in the GOP Presidential Primary.
When Donald Trump first entered politics, the George Bush/John McCain/Mitt Romney wing of the GOP had control of the Republican Party.
Donald Trump’s main disagreement with the establishment wing of the Party was over foreign policy.
George Bush was a big government Republican who started the Iraq War, supported amnesty, and signed the $800 billion TARP bailout bill.
During the Presidential Primary, Donald Trump attacked the Iraq War as a costly mistake and ripped the establishment wing of the GOP over its support for national building and policing the world.
Trump’s landslide victory in 2024 was the final nail in the coffin for the Bush/McCain/Romney wing of the Republican Party.
George Bush is the only former Republican President still alive.
Bush found himself in the spotlight when he went viral for making strange facial expressions during Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Bush’s daughter, Jenna Bush Hager, hosts a show on NBC called TODAY With Jenna & Friends.
On a recent episode, Jenna Bush and her guest host Ego Nwodim discussed the Grammy Awards and the reactions to it.
But Jenna Bush set off a firestorm when she made an awful comparison between her father and Beyoncé.
The two brought up the look of shock on Beyoncé’s face when she won Best Country Album.
Beyoncé’s reaction quickly turned into a viral meme.

Jenna compared Beyoncé’s look of surprise to that of her father.
“When she won, she was surprised and it led to this really great meme,” Bush said.
“She looks like she’s getting up to do the robot,” Nwodim added.
“Social media really went to town, and I was happy because my dad also made a couple of facial expressions at the inauguration,” Bush said.
“He didn’t do anything and she didn’t do anything,” she continued. “They just looked surprised, or delighted, bewildered – bewildered for different reasons.”
Fans of the show torched Jenna Bush for the comparison.
“Apparently, Jenna thinks her dad’s behavior was becoming of a former President,” one user commented. “I don’t see anything funny about his facial expressions.”
“He should have stayed home,” one person wrote. “I think they all have forgotten he left office as a very unpopular President and he started a war where many many died.”
Beyoncé is one of the most popular entertainers in the world.
She endorsed Kamala Harris and delivered a speech at one of her campaign rallies.
But even the Best Country Album award winner’s endorsement was not enough to stop Donald Trump from pulling off a landslide victory.
