In a Facebook post, Bush announced that he could not in good conscience vote for Donald Trump, saying Trump has not demonstrated the “temperament or strength of character” needed to lead the United States. In doing so, Bush became the latest member of his family to publicly refuse to back the real estate magnate. He also is the second former presidential candidate, along with Lindsey Graham, to break the pledge all the candidates made,

But he could break his word in ‘good conscience’, what does that say about his conscience.

This, and the shameful statement by 41 and 43, should be taken by both Trump and his supporters as a badge of honor. Their false conservative, NWO, policies gave us the Clintons and Obama. Who would WANT their support?
Begone, Bushes!

Jebbie only made the pledge because he KNEW it was his turn to be nominated.....
He KNEW he would be the nominee.
He could afford to make empty promises and posture as a team player because he was assured that the fix was in.
Except along comes Trump and upsets the apple cart!

But he could break his word in ‘good conscience’ Remember the feigned looks of shock and the dramatic statements from the GOPe and the other candidates when Trump first hesitated on stating that he would vote for the republican candidate no matter who it was?
He was being honest.
It would have been easy to just lie and say yes but he held off until he decided to commit.
But Jeb (and probably some others) took the easy, politically expedient route and said yes without meaning it at all.
Now, once again, he shows what a phony and a liar he really is.

Yes, they were terrified of a 3rd Party run by Trump, but never expected him to win.
Now that he has, they all find their 'consciences' allow them to break their word.
