Maine’s Billy Bush: ‘ABC News Had A Special Department With Sole Mission Of Destroying Trump’

Presidential nephew Billy Bush disclosed on Hannity’s podcast a 2016 news-network campaign to keep Trump out of the White House.

Bush, who has his own podcast out of North Haven, told Fox’s Sean Hannity that ABC “had a dedicated division with 75 people in it – I know the guy who ran the division – which was dedicated to basically getting him.

“And all the big networks did,” Bush said on “Hang Out With Sean Hannity.”

Bush, nephew of the first President Bush and cousin of the second, is also a brother of Maine GOP gubernatorial hopeful Jonathan Bush.

His comments on Hannity’s show were publicized in a re-tweet by Liz Churchill, who jokingly promotes herself as “Unofficial Queen of the World Economic Forum.”

Anti-Trumpers “were determined to find something,” Churchill said on the broadcast. “Imagine going around asking that question. There’s evil in that.”

The original tweet was posted early Saturday by Jason Cohen of the Daily Caller who passed it on to Sage Steele, host of the Sage Steele Show on YouTube.
