Jeb Bush Weighs in on the Remaining 2016 Candidates: ‘I Can’t Vote For Either of Them’
Mediaite ^ | July 12, 2016 | J.D. Durkin

It’s a tough position to be in if you’re the former Florida Governor staring down the barrel of a gun in the 2016 general election. After all, you’re the only member of your family to seek the Presidency with disastrous results and the “chaos candidate” who beat you handedly has basically been your sworn enemy for the last year.

So when Jeb Bush was pressed by former GOP strategist Nicolle Wallace about who he would be voting, he doubled down on assertions he has previously alluded to: neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump would earn his vote.

“I ______ affirm that if I do not win the 2016 Republican nomination for president of the United States, I will endorse the 2016 Republican presidential nominee regardless of who it is. I further pledge that I will not seek to run as an independent or write-in candidate nor will I seek or accept the nomination for president of any other party.”

Jeb Bush signed it. Clearly his written word means as little as his spoken promises. Trump is the nominee - Jeb should follow through. I'm okay if he looks like a hostage (like Christie) while doing it, but he should do it.

One good thing about this moron opening his mouth, if he says the wall will never be built and Mexico will never pay for it, you can be positive both will happen.

This kind of stupid stuff drives me nuts! For years we have been asked to support the lame candidates the GOP has forced on us. The first time in my lifetime the people rise-up and choose a candidate, the politicians cry like babies.

I don’t believe Jebbie. He would vote absentee for Mrs. Bill now if it were available.

Nicolle Wallace interviewed Yeb. As an advisor to McCain in 2008 she was instrumental in sabotaging Sarah’s effectiveness as a VP candidate. Click on the keyword below to see recent articles; she’s a stealth (or maybe not so stealth) supporter of Hillary.

Never voting for another Bush, wish I hadn’t voted for the ones I did.

Amen to that! Few people, other than the Clintons, have done as much damage to the American body politic, than the execrable Bush I, who was a globalist and who betrayed the Reagan revolution, and Bush II, who was a globalist who governed like a democrat.

Hey, Jeb, I think that the primaries proved that we don’t give a rat’s a$$ what you think.

I honestly don’t get it... they all signed a pledge. This is not about ONE individual, it’s supposed to be a party. Then Jeb should leave the party. Any of the candidates who signed and don’t endorse or vote for the nominee... should leave.

No problem, Jeb. Don't vote. Take the wife and defect to Argentina. I understand they are looking for a successor to Juan and Evita Peron. You'd fit right into the presidency.

“...he seeked the presidency with disastrous results...”

As opposed to his brother and father, who had disastrous results AFTER they achieved the presidency.

No it IS that simple:

Whatever. If you really think that way, my non-vote for Trump which you believe is a vote for Hillary is cancelled out by my non-vote for Hillary which according to your logic is a vote for Trump. A non-vote is simply that, a non-vote.

As Dennis Miller put it:...As that is your wont, fine...do it! But don’t bullshit yourself. You’re electing Hillary Clinton because you want to elect Hillary Clinton.”

Dennis Miller is good comedian, and usually a sound political commentator but his logic and mind-reading skills could use some work.

Bush had his chance to knock down Trump and his ideas during the primary. He had a lot of money to help him do it. Looks what happened. That’s what I’d like to hear him explain.
