Jeb Bush responds to reports his father will vote Clinton
The Washington Examiner ^ | September 29, 2016 | Becket Adams

Posted on 09/29/2016 8:30:58 PM PDT by kevcol

Jeb Bush appeared Thursday evening to confirm earlier reports that his father plans to vote for Hillary Clinton against GOP nominee Donald Trump.

"I thought it was a little inappropriate for a person to overhear a frail, 92-year-old man in a private setting at a reception for the Points of Light Foundation, which focuses on volunteerism, to hear this and then immediately go on Facebook and put it on there, and go on national television and not even show up at the board meeting," Bush told NBC News' Jordan Frasier Thursday evening.

This family....who the GOP gave everything to, could not even have the decency to go through the motions of voting the GOP ticket. I have utter disgust for these people. Selfish. Ungrateful. Petty. Small.

People should not be surprised. Bushes have show their true colors. Since 1988, America has almost lost 30 years. We can no longer afford another Bush or Clinton.

"...your family has become an embarrassment..."


That is something I have similarly contemplated.
They could have quietly faded away into history, yet they couldn't do that.
Unreal.

So yeah, he essentially confirms the report. I also saw on Twitter that Jeb! has said he is considering voting for Gary Johnson - yes, the Gary Johnson who can’t name a world leader he likes, who doesn’t know what Aleppo is, and sticks his tongue out in interviews.

Didn’t his parents say that? The same parents who are now voting for Clinton.

Funny how the truth always floats to the top. Globalist bastard.

After the way B.J. Clinton trashed Bush senior in the 92 campaign? Frail or not, this man is a complete boob.

You either support our Constitution or you don't.

If Reagan's vice-president has decided in his final years that he supports the democrat socialist then he truly has lost whatever infinitetessimal shred of sanity he has left.

Not that I feel any compassion for him ... in fact, I find his decision -- and him -- to be contemptible, ugly and ungrateful toward America and to patriotic Americans.

The Bushes should have stayed out of politics. What a disappointing family.

Pledge breaker and his stacked donors, even using his old frail father.

They’re going to anything to contest the election results. Count on it.

He should have done that in Japan, too. Kept his mouth shut. Who knew he was allergic to turtle sushi?

Hey Jeb, it was vile. You're way out of touch with reality.

This is no surprise; the Bush family has always been like this. I remember reading a book about Bush Sr. by John Podhoretz who had been one of his speechwriters. He wrote that after Bush lost and ordered his staff to write a farewell speech, he told them he “didn’t want any of that conservative crap”. Still doesn’t, and neither do his sons. Remember when they try to get back in politics.
