Okay, in 1968, as he was running for president against the vice-president of the sitting administration, Richard Nixon encouraged the government of North Vietnam not to make an agreement with the Johnson administration in order to help his election chances as the US was fighting a war against that country.

In 1980, as a candidate against the sitting president, Ronald Reagan worked with Iran to delay the release of hostages in order to help his election chances.

In 2016, as he was running for president against the former secretary of state of the sitting administration, Donald Trump openly called for Russian interference in US elections in order to help his election chances.

It's pretty crazy to think about, but of the last five Republican presidents to be elected to office, of all the Republicans elected to the presidency in the last 70 years, the only ones who haven't committed treason (the US Constitution defines treason against the United States as "levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort", something which collaborating with hostile powers against the interests of the US as represented by the presidential administration would qualify as under any reasonable definition) in order to boost their campaigns were the ones named "Bush".

Reason:

“They went on dates every Thursday. Yes, dates. The official Reagan library calls them “private lunch dates”. they did not get along at first but became very close after Bush refused to take over Reagan’s job following the assassination attempt! They considered one another good friends and Reagan gave Bush a handwritten note about how much he’s gonna miss him in 1989.”
