Former US President George W. Bush will not support the candidacy of incumbent President Donald Trump in the presidential election, Washington Examiner reported.

Sources familiar with the situation told the New York Times that the 43rdPresident of the United States would not support the Republican party member who is likely to fight for votes with former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden.

Bush spokesman Freddy Ford said the ex-president plans to speak out only on policy issues.

Just four days ago, George W. Bush made a statement in connection with the death of African-American George Floyd, noting that he was "anguished" by what had happened.

According to him, the time has come for America to consider its tragic failures.
