Billy Bush is first cousins with former Florida governor Jeb Bush, who was favored to win the Republican nomination before Trump came along and started calling him "low-energy" and attacking him daily on the stump.

That means Billy Bush is also first cousins with former president George W. Bush, who Trump has suggested is to blame for 9/11 and who started an Iraq War that Trump has labeled a disaster.

And he's a nephew of former president George H.W. Bush, who has reportedly said he will support Hillary Clinton over Trump, and former first lady Barbara Bush, who has said "I'm sick of" Trump and that she doesn't know how women can vote for him.

None of the Bushes is backing Trump in this campaign. And those who have tried have failed to halt his momentum.

To be sure, the Bush family probably won't enjoy this newly unearthed video all that much; Billy Bush also says some objectifying things about women and seems to be egging Trump on as Trump talks about his exploits. "Yeah those legs, all I can see is the legs," Bush says at one point, adding: "Oof, get out of the way, honey."
