Barbara Bush, in a forthcoming book, blames Trump for her ‘heart attack,’ says she was no longer a Republican. The former first lady said the ‘heart attack,’ the result of her long battle with congestive heart failure and chronic pulmonary disease, forced her to be rushed to the hospital in June 2016. In an exclusive excerpt of “The Matriarch,” author Susan Page, USA TODAY’s Washington Bureau Chief, writes that Bush’s dislike of Trump dates to the 1990s, when she wrote in her diary that he was greedy, selfish and ugly.
