A reflective Jeb Bush said he had no regrets Thursday about his failed presidential bid, saying in his first interview since leaving the race that Donald Trump could still lose the nomination fight.

"There's a possibility that he won't get 50% on the first ballot," Bush told CNN's Jamie Gangel, giving his first television interview exclusively to CNN after dropping out of the presidential race in February. "And if he doesn't do that, there are a whole lot of people who don't believe he's the proper guy."

The Cheap Labor Express still expects the RNC/GOP to deliver the amnesty canddate they paid for.

I had forgotten about Jeb for a while there.

It was nice while it lasted.

[dforest]

And Ted Cruz wants that to happen too.

[McGruff]

Rush said we haven’t seen the last of Jeb. Trouble is Trump just may get that 50%.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

It appears Jeb still has that silver foot in his mouth that he was born with.

The guy who blew $150,000,000 and didn’t win a single delegate.

Wow—stunning when you put it that way.....

Jeb Bush reveals the strategy of the GOP insiders.

Jeb Bush has endorsed Cruz. Jeb has said he does not want Trump. Who does Jeb want to be the nominee?

Is it Cruz or someone else?

[Resolute Conservative]

Bruce? Is that you ;)

[simpson96]

It's a moot point, Jeb, because Trump will have > 1,237 delegates by Convention time.

Thanks for publicly showing your true colors, Jeb.

[jospehm20]

I take it that this means the Bushes will instruct their vassal Cruz to stay in the race?

[Buckeye McFrog]

Maybe he can do print ads for the most boring beer in the world. (Miller?)

Old Milwaukee. The brew so bland you needed Sweden's hottest blondes in bikinis to move it off the shelves.

[rbg81]

Has Jeb chosen his running mate yet?

Seems there’s a whole lotta people dreaming of a contested convention, so the nomination can be handed to them on a silver platter.

[ConservativeWarrior]

Please clap now.

[notdownwidems]

Why is anyone even asking his opinion?

Exactly! I am so done with ALL of the Bushes, who have been a disaster for Republicans, for conservatives and for the nation! Pappy worked tirelessly to undo the Reagan Revolution, dubya governed like a democrat now this loser! Why would anyone even listen to a thing he says?

[Opinionated Blowhard]

The one Bush who failed miserably at seeking the presidency can’t shut up now.

[simpson96]

LOL

[knarf]

THIS should be interesting ...

The population of the USA want's Trump a natural (1237) nominee and 3 losers want a contested convention

Decisions, decisions ...

Filter or plain end, regular or menthol, flip top box or soft pack ....

What're y'smokin', mate ?
