Recall that before he even entered the race, Jeb was saying he would get the nomination and didn’t even have to go through the primaries. He also said he could circumvent the conservatives to get the nomination.
I doubt even he thought he could actually win in November. After he entered the primaries, I don’t recall him ever getting into double digits, but he sure ran through over a $100 million pretty fast.

Trump not injured; Manafort says it won’t affect his plans to be in Cleveland to introduce Melania tonight.”
Hope that’s clear: “no problem”.
Yep. I think Jeb! assumed that he/Bush cabal had this in the bag.
They likely thought they could add cRuz to the ticket and sew up TX and the conservative votes. By any means required.
When they realized things weren’t going to plan, the called up Bush operative, Lyin Ted, to enact Plan B.
Ted overlooked a few things...including the fact that We the People were smart enough to do our research and connect the Lyin Ted snake dots.
This miserable failure of a politician will be studied in PS classes for years to come.
He’s now being ranked with Benedict Arnold. Not great company to keep....unless your purpose is to deceive.
