Jeb Bush: I will not vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton
Facebook via Drudge Report ^ | May 6, 2916 | Jeb Bush

Posted on 05/06/2016 1:43:58 PM PDT by Freedom56v2

I congratulate Donald Trump on securing his place as the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee. There is no doubt that he successfully tapped into the deep sense of anger and frustration so many Americans around the country rightfully feel today.

The tremendous anger of the current U.S. electorate – whether Republican, Democrat or independent – is a result of people fearful about the future, concerned with the direction of our country and tremendously frustrated by the abject failure and inability of leaders in Washington, D.C. to make anything better.

American voters have made it clear that Washington is broken, but I’m not optimistic that either of the leading candidates for President will put us on a better course.

The American Presidency is an office that goes beyond just politics. It requires of its occupant great fortitude and humility and the temperament and strong character to deal with the unexpected challenges that will inevitably impact our nation in the next four years.

Donald Trump has not demonstrated that temperament or strength of character. He has not displayed a respect for the Constitution. And, he is not a consistent conservative. These are all reasons why I cannot support his candidacy.

Hillary Clinton has proven to be an untrustworthy liberal politician who, if elected, would present a third term of the disastrous foreign and economic policy agenda of Barack Obama.

In November, I will not vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, but I will support principled conservatives at the state and federal levels, just as I have done my entire life. For Republicans, there is no greater priority than ensuring we keep control of both chambers of Congress.

Bush just destroyed the political future of his son with this little stunt. What an arrogant ass.

Psalm, I voted for him, and his resume vs his performance left a lot to be desired. Did well in Gulf War one and didn’t wrap it up? Huh? Darmin and Sununu mucking up everything, huh? I just heard today, Nancy Reagan didn’t want him as VPOTUS, she was a good judge of character...

I hope little “George P” is rethinking his plans about a career in politics.


I was just thinking the same. Millions of Trump supporters just decided to never vote for a Bush again.

If true, it confirms my first judgement about Jeb.....he wasn’t the guy.

Actually this is awesome. It permanently ends any argument that the grassroots should rally around an establishment hack ever again in the future.

I’m afraid you’re right. A split party and the rise of statist tyranny, an economic recession, a deluge of illegals pouring over the border, Islamic “refuges” and a collapsing Europe, and you have the ingredients for catastrophe.

for a so called Republican to say that they would not vote for a democratic president, something’s very wrong with this person

Funny how neither of these things ever stopped Jeb from supporting his father and brother's candidacies.

Well, I mean, these people who are going back on their promise to support the nominee are not really surprising anyone with their flagrant dishonesty.


Most likely this is psywar kabuki. The GOPe are trying to “Goldwater” Trump. Closer to the election this GOPe filth will support Trump to give themselves cover with the base and hope they have damaged him enough that he will lose.

The Bushes are in cahoots with the Clintons, all of them. Jeb, George1, George2, Neil, Laura and Barbara will all vote for Hillary.
