Jeb Bush discusses politics, policy and a dynasty during interview with Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ^ | April 7, 2022 | Bill Glauber

WAUKESHA – Of course, he's a Bush Republican.

Son of one president and brother of another, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is six years removed from his unsuccessful bid for the presidency.

He's watching from afar as his son George P. Bush faces daunting odds in a Republican Party runoff for Texas Attorney General.

And if you ask Jeb Bush about the possible end of the Bush dynasty, he says without skipping a beat: "Yeah, that's been a topic for many years."

He doesn't focus on the words "Bush Republicans." Instead, he said, there are still voters out there who are "more traditional Republicans of believing in limited government and fixing the things that are going to make it harder for our freedoms to flourish."

Bush was at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Waukesha campus Thursday to meet with students in the afternoon and lecture in the evening.

He was appearing in a program sponsored by the Tommy G. Thompson Center on Public Leadership. Bush was originally scheduled to be here two years ago, but the pandemic intervened.

"I follow politics," he said during an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "And I certainly follow policy. I'm still curious about how to fix things."

Bush League Republicans have been flooding our country with illegal aliens intentionally for 30 years.

We MUST STOP electing them.

They WILL assist the Democrats to a permanent majority with amnesty if we keep re-electing them.

He remains focused on the future.

“We should be a little more optimistic and proud of what we have,” he said. “But you got to earn it. I’m frustrated that the issues we have, the problems we have are getting worse because we’re not solving for them.”

While ex-President Donald Trump and some of his supporters keep falsely claiming the 2020 election was stolen, Bush indicated it’s time to look forward.

“President Trump did far better than what people expected,” Bush said. “He could have easily won, but he didn’t. And, frankly, President Biden won the election for a whole set of reasons that he immediately ignored.”

Bush said the mandate Biden received “was he was going to bring some normalcy. He was going to bring people together. His experience in the Senate, you know, would compel people to come together on the things they agreed on to build on that at least to start the kind of re-weaving the web of civility and consensus building.”

Bush added that Biden has “done none of that.”

They have to be thinking RATs will vote for them. I mean really, who in their right mind would vote for these old used up RINOs?

Jeb was a good governor in Florida, but not a great one in that his brand of pragmatism did not offer major conservative reforms or a clear governing philosophy. Running for President in 2016, Jeb was unable to explain just why he should be president, other than that he would be another Bush in the oval office — and not even the GOP wanted that. There is no sound basis now for the GOP to take political advice from Jeb, a failed political figure of the past who now urges us not to take lessons from the past.

More deaths under Biden than Trump, Afghanistan debacle, illegal mandate chaos, banning Covid treatments, masking kids, highest inflation in 40 years, gas prices double, Russian invasion, open borders, increase in crime, empty shelves, food shortages, Iran deal back on, picks people based on the color of their skin or being tranny, wants to turn your kids trans, etc. Return to some normalcy?

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Morgan Ortagus cares. She is the very deep state carpetbagger Trump is pushing on the state of Tennessee. She supported Jeb in 16, called Trump disgusting, and had the queen of the left Ruth Bader Ginsburg officiate her wedding. So of course Trump gets suckered into endorsing her.
