Jeb explains the 'tragedy' of Trump's nomination
POLITICO ^ | 07/11/16 | Nick Gass

Posted on 07/11/2016 12:29:57 PM PDT by Trump20162020

People supporting Donald Trump's presidential bid will "feel betrayed" should the presumptive Republican nominee's campaign promises go unsatisfied, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush predicted Monday.

Speaking to MSNBC contributor Nicolle Wallace, who served as his press secretary in Tallahassee, Bush called Trump "to his credit ... very smart at exploiting these kind of opportunities."

"He's a master at understanding how the media works — more than anybody I've ever seen in politics. Kudos to him, for kind of creating the environment and then manipulating the environment to his effect," Bush said in the interview airing in full Monday night.

There will be no wall built, Bush told Wallace, and Mexico will not pay for it, nor will there be a ban on Muslims.

"This is all, like, an alternative universe that he created," Bush said of Trump. "The reality is, that's not going to happen. And people are going to be deeply frustrated and the divides will grow in our country. And this extraordinary country, still the greatest country on the face of the earth, will continue to stagger instead of soar. And that's the heartbreaking part of this, is I think people are really going to feel betrayed."

“Prolly Reagan’s worst judgement was in putting the elder Schmuck on the ticket in ‘80...”

I have come to the conclusion that GHWB’s becoming VP was the “price” RR had to pay for GOPe support in the election, because, as ou point out, he was not loyal to RR, and his “short follow-on Presidency” attests to that fact!

Other than every democrat politician, who knows more about unfulfilled campaign promises than the republican elite?

I have long held that Reagan’s biggest folly was his choice of VP.

“Speaking to MSNBC contributor Nicolle Wallace, who served as his press secretary in Tallahassee”

Nicole Wallace is a Hillary Clinton supporter.

Nicole Wallace was the McCain campaign operative who sabotaged Sarah Palin during the campaign and continues to lie about Sarah.

Nicole Wallace was Press Secretary to Jeb Bush.

Nicole Wallace was communications chief during the presidency of George W. Bush.

Now, one week before the Republican convention, Jeb Bush and Nicole Wallace are trashing Donald Trump.

It’s not like the past or present GOP hacks have lived up to their promises.
The difference is these hacks have the power now. Trump does not.
