Jeb Bush endorses Ted Cruz over 'vulgar' Donald Trump
BBC ^ | March 23, 2016

Former Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush has endorsed Texas Senator Ted Cruz for president, calling him a "principled conservative".

He said Mr Cruz has shown the ability to appeal to voters and win primary contests, like in Utah on Tuesday.

Republicans must "overcome the divisiveness and vulgarity" Donald Trump has introduced, he said. If not, the party will certainly lose the White House to Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, Mr Bush wrote in a Facebook post.

Jeb’s mad Trump took his birthright. He’ll get it when they roll Cruz in the upcoming contested convention though.

Yes, let’s hold hands with the leftists and just play nice. Don’t you know? When they show up getting paid by the hour to riot at Trump rallies, it’s all Trump’s fault. When ISIS bombs Brussels, it’s because of Donald Trump’s NATO comments. When Donald Trump says he’ll “spill the beans” on someone’s wife because they called his wife a whore, Donald Trump is making vulgar threats.

We need to “win” against the leftists by becoming them.

One definition of ‘vulgar’ is:

characteristic of or belonging to the masses.

The Bush family owns Ted Cruz. The super insiders are in control.

I’m not a Trump-ette but maybe we need someone who’s crass, tells it like it is and also tells our enemies to go pound sand, stands up for America and doesn’t make excuses for us.

Thought the Jeb once said he didn’t need conservatives to win.
Now he’s one of their ‘bestest’ of friends?
