Jeb Bush: I will not vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton

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.

Why it seems like almost yesterday when Jeb Bush...

Jeb Bush to Award Hillary 'Liberty Medal' on Eve of Benghazi Anniversary

by DR. SUSAN BERRY - 9 Sep 2013

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) will honor former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with this year’s Liberty Medal from the National Constitution Center. The award will be presented to Clinton on September 10th, the eve of the first anniversary of the terrorist attack on the United States mission in Benghazi that killed four Americans.

The Christian Science Monitor reports that Bush, a potential GOP contender in the 2016 presidential race, is chairman of the board of trustees of the National Constitution Center located in Philadelphia.....

“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” Bush said in a statement. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.”

The questions are...

* Which of 5 stages of grief are all the establishmentarians in
* That includes; the Neo-Con Conservative media
* and now IMHO Beck, Levin, Rush, Medved and Prager to name almost all of them as I call them the Dukes of Doochebaggery.
* So if Trump "Fixes it", are all of the above out of a Job?
* Will the Teet of DC dry up if Trump downsizes the beast?
* I think so and that is why they are all in a tizzy.

Trump ends the Bush Era, THe Obama Error and officially ends the Clinton Era, as they are now Caput if she looses. It eviscerates everything they stood for, we bought into ( El Rushbo and NAFTA ) and they can't have it, too much power and money has been made and the history books are about to be rewritten and they can't stand that either i.e. much of what they did were "EPIC FAILS".

This makes Pat Buchanan right aka his 1992 speech to the RNC convention, and resets the table back to the "Reagan Era"( and don't think that doesn't absolutely frost them, both Pat and the reset). Which all the players mentioned couldn't wait to stop everything Reagan did. I am not saying Reaganism will be revisited, but we will have the Trump Era which could have some resemblance to the Reagan Era, where in which POTUS has the interest of us at heart, Not K-Street, and all the other greaseballs that run Disney on the Potomac.

It is really rich Jeb spent 100 million and didn't get a delegate, and won't support Trump. He is taking his ball and going home. If he had another one, maybe he would have won.....

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

Prescott is going to have a lot to answer for in the 2018 primary.

We all knew the "loyalty oath" was just bull$hit, unless Rinse steps up and shows some leadership. Good move by Cheney, Pence, and Perry to endorse Trump so quickly. Notice the pattern? Not one of those three is inside the Beltway.

[laconic]

Never ever again will I hold my nose and vote for a member of the Bush family who would be nowhere but for President Reagan and the conservative base and who spit on us every chance they get. Between the draft dodging, war mongering idiot named GW, the dithering father and this sadsack sore loser who burned through $ 150 million in fatcat money for nothing, they are a blight on the Party.

[Vendome]

KcuF you Jebito.

You are the result of the wrong drugs and a defective condom...

[SaveFerris]

Crybaby Jebby gotta cry.

[Freedom56v2]

Nice post! Thank you :)

[Zenjitsuman]

The Bush babies are Crying

Fire P bush you know the No Show Bushy

[Scott from the Left Coast]

And Jeb, no one will vote for you...ever.

It is a very hard call to decide whether the worst, most destructive family in American history are the Clintons or the Bushes. Too hard to decide, I hope both families burn in Hell.

[GOPJ]

Did Jeb not raise his hand to support the nominee?!?! Oh, EASY to do when he thought HE WOULD BE THE NOMINEE.

I have no idea why these prima donnas can't just 'stay home' on election day rather than drama queening the event and acting like they're announcing they're refusing to quarterback the Superbowl game.

Gimme a break Jeb.

Really Jeb - YOU'VE GOT ONE VOTE. ONE. JUST LIKE THE REST OF US.

Can't you just walk into the voting booth and vote for whoever the hell you want to... like the rest of us?

[Freedom56v2]

Please clap.

Excellent~Wish I had said that ;)

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. I’d like to think that’s partly why they lost in the first place; people see through all their disingenuous beltway backstabbing and BS.

Good riddance to bad garbage. Get me a list of who these losers are going to be supporting down-ticket, so I know who NOT to vote for.

[AFreeBird]

Mama told you not to run - son!

[Freedom56v2]

Good for Jeb Bush! He just ended any hopes of another Bush ever getting elected to anything. The dynasty is over. Now, once Trump vanquishes Clinton this Nov. as badly as I think will happen, that dynasty will also be on the ash heap of history.

Agreed! Just an added benefit to a Trump presidency ;)

[Gator113]

Hey Jeb, did your mom abuse you as a child? Did she make you play with Barbie dolls?

Any respect I once had for the Bush family is now completely gone.

[Mr Rogers]

BTW, I’ve been banned from posting on NRO because I’ve been arguing that party loyalty is supposed to work both ways. So...someone who dislikes Trump but who will vote for him because Hillary is the alternative is prohibited from making that radical argument on National Review. Although they sure felt free to MAKE it supporting Mitt in 2012!

It is ironic. I’ve been vocally opposed to Donald Trump winning the primary...but since he has, I’ve been banned from commenting on National Review for...supporting Trump in the general election?

I’m not sure who disgusts me more: Trump sycophants, or Anti-Trump sycophants! But I’ll say this for Trump: He at least has some of the right enemies!

[SaveFerris]

He is such a joke. It’s hilarious.

He wants Hillary to be elected; I don’t believe anything from the lips of this Obama suck-up.

And that goes for his NWO family, too.
