Jeb Bush: I will not vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton
Facebook via Drudge Report ^ | May 6, 2916 | Jeb Bush

Posted on 05/06/2016 1:43:58 PM PDT by Freedom56v2

I congratulate Donald Trump on securing his place as the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee. There is no doubt that he successfully tapped into the deep sense of anger and frustration so many Americans around the country rightfully feel today.

The tremendous anger of the current U.S. electorate – whether Republican, Democrat or independent – is a result of people fearful about the future, concerned with the direction of our country and tremendously frustrated by the abject failure and inability of leaders in Washington, D.C. to make anything better.

American voters have made it clear that Washington is broken, but I’m not optimistic that either of the leading candidates for President will put us on a better course.

The American Presidency is an office that goes beyond just politics. It requires of its occupant great fortitude and humility and the temperament and strong character to deal with the unexpected challenges that will inevitably impact our nation in the next four years.

Donald Trump has not demonstrated that temperament or strength of character. He has not displayed a respect for the Constitution. And, he is not a consistent conservative. These are all reasons why I cannot support his candidacy.

Hillary Clinton has proven to be an untrustworthy liberal politician who, if elected, would present a third term of the disastrous foreign and economic policy agenda of Barack Obama.

In November, I will not vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, but I will support principled conservatives at the state and federal levels, just as I have done my entire life. For Republicans, there is no greater priority than ensuring we keep control of both chambers of Congress.

Well, looks like the “pledge” was only meant for Trump to have to live up to.

The others are all liars and theives

Exactly.

We are watching the end of the Bush dynasty.

Wow!

Actually this is awesome. It permanently ends any argument that the grassroots should rally around an establishment hack ever again in the future.

Well I wouldn't call it "awesome" -- quite sad actually, but it certainly confirms what we have suspected for a long time.

Jeb obviously is not a Republican. The Bushes support only those Republicans they can control, those who are sufficiently liberal. Has anybody asked Jeb about Terri Schiavo?

Exactly. Didn’t Laura Bush say she’d vote for Hillary or at least was considering it?

Done with the Bushes.

Sore Loser! The voters have made it clear that Jeb didn’t display those qualities either. This all reminds me of George Romney stomping off the floor of the convention, because things didn’t go his way.

Frankly, I believe we passed the point of no return early I Obama’s first term. I pray that I am wrong, and that God will grant a return to sanity in what has become a bizarre and insane world.
