With time on her hands since her MSNBC show is cancelled, journalist Joy-Ann Reid pens an op-ed for the New York Times featuring disillusioned Jeb Bush supporters.
These anonymous Bush supporters are deeply upset with the notion that Rubio would consider running for president without allowing Jeb to have his moment.
After giving Rubio a “ceremonial sword,” Reid writes that Bush allies are trying to “dislodge the blade from his own back.”

Actually, it would be a very, very good thing if Rubio runs. He will siphon votes from Christie and Bush, and open the door for a real conservative.
Good, let as many pro-amnesty candidates run as possible. So far there is only one candidate running who hasn’t supported amnesty, and it is the #1 issue for conservatives, so maybe we can actually not split our votes this time.
And when those Bush supporters are willing to take time away from polo practice and cotillion planning to talk to Joy, you know they are really, and I mean really, upset.
So I am expected to believe that Joy-Ann Reid actually knows some republicans? Sounds like a complete work of fiction.
Rubio is the Establishment’s Plan B in case Jeb stumbles out of the gate and has that stench of failure creeping up his leg. The Establishment would NEVER allow a true conservative to become the candidate in the general election. They will throw Jeb overboard in a heartbeat if it means holding onto the controls of the GOP.
Bon mot du jour.
Amen
“... without allowing Jeb to have his moment.”
Dear Jeb & Supporters, the Founders did not believe that anyone running for office is entitled to anything, any seat or any position of power. We the People are the ones who are entitled and who deserve all opportunities to vote for the leaders we want.
That would be worth it...RINO FIGHT!
Boo hoo.
