As word got out Friday that President Donald Trump announced a deal that would temporarily reopen the government, right wing provocateur Ann Coulter made it clear she wasn't happy.

But in the process she managed to cast some shade on former President George H.W. Bush.

"Good news for George Herbert Walker Bush: As of today, he is no longer the biggest wimp ever to serve as President of the United States," she tweeted.

Twitter users were quick to remind her that Bush, who died Nov. 30, flew 58 combat missions during World War II and received the Distinguished Flying Cross, three Air Medals and the Presidential Unit Citation awarded to the USS San Jacinto, the ship his squadron was based on.

In one mission during World War II, his aircraft took on enemy fire, striking his engine. Bush bailed out over the Pacific and waited four hours before being rescued.

"You can call the man MANY things (and I have), but a wimp isn't one of them," tweeted one user.
