Jeb Bush: ‘Conservatism Temporarily Dead’; Pope Border Mass Fueled Trump
Breitbart ^ | 11 Jul 2016 | Amanda House

Posted on 07/12/2016 6:18:07 AM PDT by detective

"I’m disappointed I didn’t break through,” Jeb Bush confessed during an interview with MSNBC Monday night. “This would have been an extraordinary time to serve as President. The country is desperately looking for leadership… I think it requires someone who is not always trying to win, but to solve problems.” The former Florida governor reflected on his failed 2016 bid for the Oval Office, admitting disappointment, but also deflecting blame, saying “conservatism is temporarily dead,” and adding that “Donald Trump is barely a Republican – certainly not a conservative.”

“Jeb Bush is barely a Republican – certainly not a conservative.” echoed the party base.

Ol’e Jebito is at it again.

I guess he has nothing better to do since he can’t help murder Florida residents anymore.

Jeb you agreed to support the nominee. I see your word means nothing.

Apparently conservative principals continue to elude the Bush clan.

G.H.W. Bush continues to remain as one of Reagan’s worst mistakes.

I hope George Pee takes a lesson and finds employment in the private sector soon.

Ever since I started supporting Trump just over a year ago, Cruz supporters have told me Trump is barely a Republican, and certainly not a conservative. Now here is Jeb singing from the same page, note for note. It struck me as a bit eerie, to say the least.

Conservatism isn’t dead, however fake Conservatism is in cardiac arrest.

I have read a number of recent posts that say Reagan made a big mistake in choosing elder Bush for his VP. The choice for Reagan at that time was bending to the elites and agreeing to their notion of Gerald Ford becoming CO-PRESIDENT or taking Bush, who received the next highest number of votes in the primaries. Then as now, the GOPe tried to keep a good American candidate who was supported by the majority of their voters from getting in control of the party. Reagan was truly a gift to this Republic. The elites never, ever, give up. At least now, largely because of the internet information accessibility, citizens and voters can see the scope of the power of the international New World Order members. Pretty stark reality which, if successful, will lead to the end of the US Republic.

Jeb: "The country is desperately looking for leadership… I think it requires someone who is not always trying to win, but to solve problems.”

Oh, lordy. lordy lord — triple face palm — project much?

No one else, including Jeb, had any idea how to identify the nation's core problems and call out the problem-causers until June, 2015, when Trump laid it all out.

Jeb is the poster boy for just wanting to win, because his Daddy and his brother won, and so he's entitled. Trump has even said he loved his life and could be doing other things, but he is running because no one else can evision effective solutions or even identify the core problems. To quote him: "You can't fix a rigged system by relying on the people who rigged it."

It does seem that Trump is more to the right on many issues than Jeb is.

Jeb is one of those who uses the word ‘conservative’ when he thinks it will help, and then conveniently ignores it afterward.

Several months before he jumped into the 2016 primaries, he called himself a ‘reform’ conservative. He couldn’t even define what that meant. But it was probably something along the lines of GW’s ‘compassionate’ conservatism and Mitt Romney’s ‘severely’ conservatism.

Even many of the so-called ‘conservative’ pundits, commentators and politicians have shown themselves to be moderates or even left of center.

They managed to basically destroy the Tea Party movement by usurping it, because it was a grassroots phenomenon. They are trying to do the same with Trump grassroots phenomenon.

John Ellis Bush slogan Jeb can do it

Now I know what that means

JEB can PUT HIS FOOT IN HIS MOUTH, that is what he can do.

Sore Loser, Butt Hurt. Ask Vincente Fox to wave the prohibition on American’s owning Mexican Land, maybe you can get a house and live in Mexico where you and your NON ENGLISH SPEAKING WIFE WILL FEEL COMFORTABLE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TRUMP WALL>

Some things never change!

I, like everyone, else really do not know Trump but I do know all of the deep rooted ruling elite uniparty class do not want him. All the more reason I support him.

JEB supports and will be voting for Hillary along with G.H.W. and G.W.

They can all rot.

The best way to get Jeb’s goat would be to remind him that Trump intends to dynamite those totally evil trade deals that his brother and other scoundrels made.

It may set back corporate internationalism by decades.

Imagine the real tears Jeb would shed on hearing this.

Once more, a “Rollerball” future is avoided.

Conservatism? JEB is mixing up the word with the Bush dynasty which really is dead but never really was conservative, thereby proving once again that he is really just retarded insignificant JEB.
