Bush's three delegates cost $50 million each

Jeb Bush's three delegates at the Republican National Convention cost him and his campaign about $50 million each.

Bush, who ended his presidential campaign in February after a poor showing in South Carolina, had only three delegates vote for him at the Republicans' nominating convention Tuesday. His campaign and super PAC spent $46 million for each delegate, according to The Washington Post's Dave Weigel. He was a favorite going into the primary season and had substantial financial backing from his family network, but he was unable to muster the enthusiasm his campaign needed.

Donald Trump's attacks on Bush as “low-energy” resonated with GOP voters and hurt the former Florida governor, who struggled to compete with the business mogul.

Bush has said he won't vote for either Trump or presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and has no plans to attend the Republican convention.

To think, without spending a single penny, a political nobody like me came within THREE delegates of matching Jeb!’s total!
Only in America!

Thank you for synopsizing the absolute suckassness of the entire Bush syndicate.

They all belong in prison or swinging from a rope.

// He was a favorite going into the primary season... // hahahaha, who makes up this stuff???

...and had substantial financial backing from his family network, but he was unable to muster the enthusiasm his campaign needed. >> “Please clap” — awww! I’d feel sorry for him, but he has taken his last remaining marbles and gone home to hide under his bed.

No leadership there now PROVED if any still doubted it.

Thanks for that Psalm 144,

Yeah the Bush’s are ALL NWO minions and disgusting because they’ve duped so many into believing they’re something dignified and stand up for gentlemanly polite truth when its really nothing of the sort,

No one awake and aware today could ever miss what they are, the best thing about Trump is how hes outed their kind, its unfortunate some are still deaf to that.

Bush daddy, privileged ‘poppy’ is an anti-Semite in the vein of Jimmuh, given over to that spirit thing in the Yale skull and bones vault and still pining for the unrealized globalist dreams of his lost second term,

Bush 2, spawn of poppy, surrendered to the Saudis and their money versus having a true 9/11 reckoning and is given over to that same spirit in the Yale closet that empowered his daddy, who then instigated a trillion dollar terror war aimed away from the actual enemy and later even brought us the ‘patriot’ act to empower and provide aid and comfort to some future wannabe dictator who ironically is most likely again that same 9/11 actual enemy.

Jeb hasn’t really done much of anything himself besides letting the weak die and falling over himself wishing like some wannabe lanky al gore having an awkward teenage moment and entering the race because of apparent unresolved daddy issues. Anyone on their own willing to reach that far must have a fire in his or her belly, instead all we saw was a well-funded lifeless dull ‘low energy’ jog alongside his mommas walker,

The efforts of ALL the Bushes have been with the appearance of facilitating Hillary’s easy ascension to power, no doubt expecting the Clinton’s might lob the keys to the white house back at the Bush dynasty in 8 years, and after all they’ve done for Antichrist globalism, surely they deserve at least that much, right?

The Bushes are the obverse side of the same coin to the Clinton’s, they play the white hat card to them.

That Obama creature is altogether something else, full-on demonic and they (ALL of the Bush’s) can never bring themselves to even whisper a hint of an unkind word against Obama but still find all manner of passive aggressive impoliteness to spew toward Trump.

And just why is that anyway? how does that work exactly?

I have a theory,

Not unlike how that globalist shill Romney and his Obama funding lackey Ryan both operate, they maintain a form of godliness but deny the power, these are people given over to principalities and powers, spiritual wickedness operating from high political office, empowered from the images that move and speak and appear to have life (as John in the book of Revelation might see it) where the TV, MSM, internet, twitter feeds etc., can make winners and losers in a single evening) so when a true worshiper/adherent/disciple of that technological beast comes along like an Obama and to a lessor extent even the corrupt Clinton’s, they all step aside and form a path for them to walk by unhindered, all the while staring in awe acknowledging that which they themselves covet, desiring for themselves that same authority but knowing their place is in the gentrified Waspy boardrooms.

See Deuteronomy 28, Psalm 106, Judges Chapter 2, we have been given over to reprobates that hate us and desire to rule over us, the enemy is at the gate and the Bushs want to let them in,

Agreed on all points! The masks have fallen however. Perhaps it is not yet their day in the sun.
