JEB BUSH POUTS AS DONALD TRUMP ROLLS
Powerline ^ | 3/16/16 | PAUL MIRENGOFF

Yesterday, Donald Trump won his biggest victory yet, a decisive triumph in Florida’s winner-take-all primary. With the win, the tycoon’s hostile takeover of the Republican Party becomes overwhelmingly likely.

Where was Jeb Bush during the battle for his home state’s primary? He was pouting.

Spinning Bush’s failure to endorse his one-time protege Marco Rubio (whom he once touted for the vice presidency), or another non-Trump candidate, the former governor’s confidante Al Cardenas said:

[Bush] put his heart and soul in this race, and the outcome was disappointing to him. You get emotionally drained, and you just want to stay off the grid for a while. If you support someone, you have to go out there and work for the candidate, and I think the governor just wanted to take some time off. He has no more political aspirations beyond what he’s tried.

“He can now sell guacamole bowls on HSN.”

And maybe, just maybe, a few lucky bowl buyers will get a peak at Jeb’s family’s secret guac recipe too!

Just hope Texas realizes we don't need this guy after his fathers big loss.

Lets see if they have him go up against Cruz in the next senate election in TX.
