'Turn to religion': George W. Bush shrugs off 'division' following Trump's election
George W. Bush in a recent interview downplayed the division in the United States, simply telling citizens that they should "turn to religion."
Former President Bush, who has criticized Donald Trump in the past but stopped short of endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris, has come under fire for staying out of the limelight and not making his thoughts more clear.
In an interview played on Fox News, the ex-president said that America "will be fine."

He added, "I think there's more kind than not kind in our country."
