Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has openly attacked Donald Trump and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio on the trail for months, but his campaign has been working behind the scenes to diminish another top opponent: Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush, the governor's son, held a private call with grassroots supporters on Wednesday and sought to reassure them that the Iowa caucus, which Cruz won, was an "aberration."...

CRuz -> Bush -> Roberts
CRuz = Bush....same diff.
The Bush family would actually love for CRuz to be the nominee. Don’t kid yourself. Their history goes waaaaay back.

Meh, that's not an attack.
But he left out the part about Bush spending more money than anyone else with nothing to show for it.

Don’t know where you heard that, but your information is... lacking. GW couldn’t and can’t stand Ted Cruz; didn’t call him an a-hole like Boehner, but pretty close.

It’s called calling in a chip. The Bush name is not favorable, these days, for most. Why do you think W hasn’t been out hitting the campaign trail for Yebbers?
It was a means of distancing CRuz from W and the Bush family....with all of the conniptions between Bush and CRuz.
CRuz and his wife both worked (and met) while working for Bush.
CRuz introduced 0Care CJ Roberts to Bush and tesitified for his nomination/selection.
Lots of history, there.

Au contraire, I was detailed to the Bush White House from September 2011 to May of 2013 and have some fairly in-depth first-hand knowledge. Bush considered Cruz a “right-wing nut”.
