Jeb Bush just told a bunch of 3rd-graders how his dad sent him 'into a deep, spiraling depression for days'.
Can someone ask Jeb Bush if he's okay? During a Q&A with third-graders at a Manchester, New Hampshire, charter school, things took a sharp turn when the former Florida governor (and floundering Republican presidential candidate) began talking about his father, former President George H. W. Bush:

Jeb on George HW: "All he would have to say is 'I'm disappointed in you' and it would send me into a deep spiraling depression for days"

Jeb gives long answer on border security, reforming immigration system, deploying drones.
Next question from girl: "What's a border?"

Jeb! TMI!! The kids don’t need to know all the sausage making aspects of growing up rich and educated. Can you think of anything uplifting to tell them, something to make them aspire for great and worthy goals.
You are not running to become the Wet-Blanket-In Chief. Secondly, remember, you are talking to little children, who may not even know what the word border means.
How about putting this whole effort in a state of ‘suspension’, as one keeps a dead organism suspended, forevermore in formaldehyde
This is the one area where I empathize with Jeb. It’s not easy for some kids thrive with an ultra-high-achieving father figure.
There is so much to live up to, so much pressure. Some thrive, some wilt. And it’s usually one or the other, there is no in-between.
Jeb has emotional problems. I wish him well in a private life. His political life is mercifully (for the rest of us) ending
I take it that it doesn’t impress you as joyous?
Jeb is embarassing even the Gope moderates.
Lol
is smarter than that boy.
His brother reads to children, Jeb just confuses them.
You’d think that only a woman could have penis envy, too.
Ok really just stop. This campaign is just becoming too funny. What’s next? Jeb visits the local hospital and gives out “Jeb will fix it” hats to all the terminally ill patients?
Somehow I think that may be next on their agenda.
I sincerely believe that Jeb is actually retarded.
LOL!!
You might be on to something! Daddy issues took obama straight to the WH...
Poor Jeb. He really is the Fredo of that family. No wonder his mom didn’t want him to run.
So Trump is praising our military from the deck of a war ship and Jeb is whining to 3rd graders about his big bad daddy. Oh boy!!
He’s stationing for the next Will Ferrell movie. Campaign 2.
Itâs not easy for some kids thrive with an ultra-high-achieving father figure.”
My kids dont worry about that. That’s good, I guess....
His new campaign strategy is obvious, he’s setting himself up for the 2028 election when these youngsters can vote. In the meantime, he’s lowering expectations in Iowa so that when he gets 5% instead of the expected 3% he can ride the wave into New Hampshire.
