George H.W. Bush doesn’t feel like his son, Jeb Bush, was completely correct when he said that the former president  wouldn’t fit in well with today’s Republican party, per ABC News:

Bush’s son Jeb, has said that the former president might have had trouble fitting in to today’s Republican party. A claim Bush partially agrees with.

“I think that’s true in some issues, in some — some contexts. But overall, I don’t feel that way,” he said. “I mean, it gets so locked in and so right. And it — it troubles me a little bit. But on the other hand, I don’t worry about it a long time. I think — I think we’ll be okay. …  I am an optimist about life, about the — everything that lies ahead.”
