Adding to potentially the most awkward Thanksgiving ever, George H.W. Bush is reportedly voting for Hillary Clinton this November.
Yep, Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee and wife of Bush鈥檚 1992 conqueror 鈥� Bill.
Sparks surrounding the political news were ignited by a Facebook post. Former Maryland Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend posted a picture of herself with Bush on Monday and added, "The President told me he's voting for Hillary!!"
Townsend, daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy, later confirmed the conversation she had while meeting Bush in Maine to , which shared a screenshot of the Facebook post.
Bush's spokesman Jim McGrath says in a statement that the 92-year-old former president's vote is private, and Bush isn't commenting on the race.
Those reporting how will vote this year, it's not clear anyone was there to verify KKT. Still checking, keep your powder dry.

Bush 41 hasn't offered support for GOP nominee Donald Trump nor has he endorsed Hillary Clinton, just to be clear.
Where Do The Other Bushes Stand On The Election?
Jeb!, presumably the Texas Republican dynasty鈥檚 first choice, dropped out of the race in February after a contentious primary run against Trump. So, where has that left the family?
In May, McGrath said George H.W., who has enthusiastically endorsed every Republican nominee for the past five election cycles, will stay quiet in this race, the reports. Like his father, George W. isn鈥檛 talking either, but he was on the campaign trail for a bit with Jeb and recently .
Jeb says for either Trump or Clinton, but his son and Texas Land Commissioner, George P., in August, which he said was a "bitter pill to swallow." Well, if his grandfather really does vote for Clinton, George P. probably won鈥檛 be the only Bush with a bad taste in his mouth.
