I remember reading a report a few days ago that Bush had started a PAC, and I THOUGHT it was to support Biden, but it may have just been to attack Trump. I can't remember which. But isn't it really almost the same thing either way?

Former George W. Bush Staffers Form PAC to Back Joe Biden
By Adrian Carrasquillo On 6/5/20 at 4:23 PM EDT
