The billionaire insurance magnate whose company gave $10 million to the super PAC behind the Jeb Bush presidential bid expressed regret Thursday about the direction of that campaign.

"Listen, I like Jeb Bush," Maurice R. "Hank" Greenberg told a Fox News correspondent late Thursday morning, just hours after the donation was first reported. "Sorry he's not living up to expectations, but that's the reality of it."

In other breaking news, ObamaCare is not living up to its promises.

Not living up to expectations. There’s the understatement of the year.

I had the absolute lowest expectations and still he fell way short. I had no idea he would be such a baby.

Great, his biggest backer is the guy who green lighted derivatives in and almost collapsed both AIG and the World economy!

I thought Yeb! would be pretty much the candidate he is.

He’s not the smart one

Hank, the American people are not going to eat a third helping of Bush Brand GOPe Dog Food. Two were more than enough.

Well, Yeb! is certainly living up, or rather down, to my expectations of him.

Looks like this insurance hack bet on a loser and will not be getting any favors
back from Yeb for his 10 million dollar investment.

Old Morris Greenberg was my boss at AIG.
Smart and sneaky, a great leader and the guy who made AIG a power over 40 years. He deserves to rank among the great men of business.
AIG was brought down by an internal gang of weasels who played politics with NY Attorney General Eliot Spitzer and brought him down. Subsequently they looted AIG with their London trading operation, not sanctioned by Greenberg.
The old man is old indeed these days, and no doubt out of touch.

Wasn’t Greenberg. Was the gang that kicked him out.

The Bush clan started with their best and it has been a pretty steep downhill run.

Yeb! is at least way better than his spawn.

Really? REALLY? Their guy is in about 1073rd place and the strongest statement they can make is he’s “not living up to expectations”?

That mealy mouthed BS right there is a large part of why Trump Is so popular
