“...Because of his blue blood lineage, he thinks he deserves to be the President of this great country...”
I tend to think his heart was never fully in it and he was pressured-hard, volunteered and pushed into the role by the RNC/Power-Brokers/puppeteers who thought (for whatever reason) that he was their best bet to maintain their status-quo. I think he would really rather be doing something else. But, he’s a trooper, so he’s going through the motions.
I agree with that.
Jeb wound up in his current position in life through sheer accident of birth - not because of any unique talents or personal attributes he might possess, and certainly not through dint of hard work and achievement.
On his own, I doubt he would have ever become more than a mid level manager in a small business. More likely, he would have become a low level government drone of some type.
He's completely out of his depth, and has no business running for mayor of a small town, much less, President of the USA.
Wow
Never thought of them that way...
I hold no animosity to the Bush family. They participated in the business of politics. Jeb got hit with a tidal wave of rejection because voters are done with the corrupt self-serving nature of politicians. Of course a new just as corrupt model will emerge, just as a river courses thru the flatlands to the sea.
He did himself no favors by stating that he could just wait out the front end of the nominating process as he had considerable financial support. Talk about souring the electorate.
He too is dogged by the failure of either Bush to secure a border anywhere, nor to defend whatever principles they deemed as absolutes. There were no absolutes. Then he speaks in Spanglish too some groups of supporters, further perturbing non-Spanish electorate as they wonder what he is really telling them.
His lineage put a torpedo in him, and he sailed into a headwind of his own making.
And yes, this seems like a man with no fight for the office.
