Jeb Bush donors want a rematch in 2020

Jeb Bush in 2020, anyone?

Sources close to Jeb Bush’s failed run at the 2016 presidency say the “low-energy” candidate has been back in touch with supporters. They believe he’s popping up to “feel them out” for another run and, according to at least one big contributor, they're in!

“Bush has been quietly making telephone calls to his supporters, bundlers and donors, to talk about the state of the county and the economy, and the energy business, why would he do that?” asks one insider, who concludes “he's running in four years.”

Before he was trounced by Donald Trump, Bush raised $160 million (when adding in super PAC money), for a GOP primary run that fell flat when the bombastic Trump labeled him a “low-energy” candidate.

George P. has “endorsed” Trump and is a safe bet to be reelected land commissioner in 2018, if he runs again.

The rest of the Bushes (most likely including Jeb - his cronies are the ones pushing his 2020 run) know that their political careers are over, so they can endorse Hillary or refuse to endorse Trump. Jorge P. knows that he has to play ball and endorse the GOP nominee if he wants to stay in the game, so his "endorsement" is about as sincere as Ted Cruz's.

With any luck he won't crawl any higher than land commissioner. The last thing anyone needs is a governor (or God forbid, President) who has a double-whammy sense of political entitlement - first because he's a Bush, second because he can play the "Hispanic" card.

With Pena-Nieto's approval rating at an all time low in Mexico, I'm thinking Jeb would be a suitable replacement for him on the PRI ticket.
