Jeb Bush is meeting with the three Republican presidential candidates seeking to take down front-runner Donald Trump before Thursday's GOP debate, according to a new report.
Bush is huddling with Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Ohio Gov. John Kasich before the Miami debate, The New York Times reported Wednesday.
The former Florida governor repeatedly clashed with Trump during his own GOP presidential campaign, which ended late last month after disappointing results in early-voting states.
Bush is meeting Rubio on Wednesday and speaking with Cruz and Kasich on Thursday before the debate.
It's unclear whether Bush will endorse a candidate before March 15, when both Ohio and Florida vote in winner-take-all primaries, the Times said.

Ted’s still picking up Cowboy backers in WY who may not know of all of this.
They still walk among us, my friend. Like moon eyed zombies, they be.
Jeb Bush backer says he told her he won’t endorse anyone before Tuesday
Jeb Bush told a Miami backer Friday that he doesn’t plan a Republican presidential endorsement before Florida’s primary Tuesday.
Helen Aguirre Ferré, who campaigned extensively for Bush in Iowa while he was a candidate, told the Miami Herald she emailed the former Florida governor and got a response.
“I said, ‘People are asking me what you are thinking of doing,’ and I said, ‘Are you going to endorse anyone?’” she said. “And he said he was not endorsing prior to Tuesday.
“He repeated it twice, that he was not endorsing prior to Tuesday. Does that mean a Tuesday morning endorsement? I don’t know, you know. And what would that mean? And who would he be endorsing? I don’t know.”
A Borg reference comes to mind...
Jeb's too busy doing "cool things" with the three mousketeers at a secret island retreat.
Jeb wants a VP slot.
Remember what happened the last time a Bush was given a VP slot?
Thank God Reagan made it.
Well, I gotta hand it to him. He did try hard to "be assimilated".
“Jeb wants a VP slot.”
Yep, or the P slot, (brokered convention).
That and the Corker bill started setting off alarm bells, I still wanted to believe he was not one of them.
I clearly see now that he is.
I hear the failed assassin, child of Bush family associate is getting out of jail soon. Perhaps they have another job waiting for him.
Cruz may have a job in show biz, the way he played that part, with a flair for the dramatic.
His Senators knew Teddy was putting on “a helluva show”.
