Jeb Bush: ‘Conservatism Temporarily Dead’; Pope Border Mass Fueled Trump
Breitbart ^ | 11 Jul 2016 | Amanda House

Posted on 07/12/2016 6:18:07 AM PDT by detective

"I’m disappointed I didn’t break through,” Jeb Bush confessed during an interview with MSNBC Monday night. “This would have been an extraordinary time to serve as President. The country is desperately looking for leadership… I think it requires someone who is not always trying to win, but to solve problems.” The former Florida governor reflected on his failed 2016 bid for the Oval Office, admitting disappointment, but also deflecting blame, saying “conservatism is temporarily dead,” and adding that “Donald Trump is barely a Republican – certainly not a conservative.”

The week before the Republican convention members of the GOP establishment attack Trump in the media.

It is clear that JEB was supposed to lose and help Hillary Clinton become president. He was given almost $200 million and the support of the media and the Washington establishment.

And JEB thinks he lost because he was too conservative and "conservatism is temporarily dead".

So now Jeb is blaming the POPE for his failure??

That’s rich! He should go into stand-up comedy.
Perhaps take over the Late Show when the pull the plug on Colbert.

[”conservatism is temporarily dead”. ]

It IS dead. The right is not “conserving” ANYTHING!
It’s aligned with the economically devastating tax and spend philosophy of the left, and NOW they aren’t even conserving their own party, as they have turned their back on their own presumptive nominee.

I don’t think Jeb’s mom allows him to stay up that late...

It is DEAD for now.

But taking from a famous say, it will be back.

He needs to take a trip to Capitol Hill and meet the 535 people who killed it.

Exactly. Open borders are an existential threat to our nation. Unless we control our borders Democrats will be the perpetual majority party.

Jeb was just on the wrong side of history.

Saving America is who we are !!

Lol - so true!

I was just going to post that it was the Bush dynasty, in sync with the left, that sent everyone running to Mr. Trump.

“Donald Trump is barely a Republican”

*************

That’s why he’s getting so many votes. Republicans failed to do anything.

Disappointed he didn’t “break through”? He wasn’t even a blip. He was dead man walking the moment Trump labeled him “Low Energy”.

Jebito, I now have very little energy just from reading your words. STFU and go away!

The professional media and political class view all of this as some exercise in ideological purity. This is especially true of those ensconced in their legacy secured private communities and lifestyles. Lacking real world experience they turn to the abstract battles of ideology where paper tigers are less formidable then in neighborhoods, communities and public spaces shared by an increasingly tense and fearful population.

Every simply daily encounter between white and black folks is now rippling with harsh negative overtones of nightly news stories. The reality of a nation out of control and about to explode permeates the mundane lives of “the little people.”

In the meantime career pols, the media and elites in general worry about abstractions like “conservatism.”

Yes Mr Bubble Boy Jeb, America needs strong leadership, but it is much more akin to what DJT is offering.

Jeb wouldn’t know a conservative if one bit him on the behind.
