It breaks my heart that this fool took millions of dollars for a vanity campaign that could have been put to better use retiring some of his brother’s deficit spending and the Republican’s spineless capitulation to Democrat legisative graft

I remember an article a while back that compared the amount of money spent by each candidate divided by the number of votes they received in the primaries. Jeb's "cost per vote" was 10x higher almost everyone else's, and about 100x higher than Trump's. That doesn't stop Bush from calling Trump an egomaniac.
