Elsewhere, George W. Bush was giving us all the feels, with a sweet anecdote recounting his last visit with his mother the week before her death.
Speaking in an interview with PBS Newshour, the younger Bush described how his mother was "slightly feisty still" even while she was in the hospital.

"Because I drank and smoked while I was pregnant with him."
