Jeb Bush said he thinks a fellow Republican should challenge President Donald Trump in 2020, according to a portion of an interview for the series “The Axe Files.”

The excerpt was tweeted by show host David Axelrod, a commentator and ex-adviser to former President Barack Obama. Axelrod’s interview with Bush, who went up against Trump in the 2016 Republican primary, is set to air on CNN at 7 p.m. on Saturday.

“I think someone should run just because Republicans ought to be given a choice,” Bush said. “It’s hard to beat a sitting president, but to have a conversation about what it is to be a conservative, I think it’s important.”

Axelrod wrote in a subsequent tweet that Bush, a former Florida governor, had been “incredibly candid on all fronts,” including on the state of the country and the Republican Party.

In the same interview, according to CNN, Bush also discussed a speech he gave at the inauguration of Maryland Republican Gov. Larry Hogan, who has yet to rule out a 2020 bid. Of Hogan’s own inaugural speech, Bush said he "kind of got a sense that maybe this was an opening" for Hogan to consider a presidential campaign.

Funny how you like a Bush now lol.
 
Why don't you start a thread & ask those that supported it instead of deflecting.. You have a comment of the clip???

It's not a deflection. You bring up Trump to me as if I'm a supporter. Since what you posted wasn't relevant to me and I asked a question not relevant to you (if that makes sense).

This is what you said & I was replying to.
Who does that leave in the future post-Trump?

I do agree his divinity will be hard to replace, but it will be replaced by someone akin to the devil in that clip...

Mormons had Young when their demi-god got shot, JW's had judge rutherford when russell their leader died etc etc etc.
 
Remember, I was responding to ILA claiming he and others will never vote for an establishment type again. Who does that leave in the future post-Trump? There's almost no one that fits Trump's profile of being a non politician that can run for and win the Presidency, especially while using his rhetoric. He's not a sustainable model.
we'll find out in 2024. no clue now
 
While there is still time, assuming trump does not die in his sleep around 11am this morning, I think some great repub like this is what ya'll are looking for


Seems Democrats have had and will continue to have them some great ones:

It isn’t unfortunate for me. It is unfortunate for the country.

Trust me most of us aren’t going back to the Jeb types. You can have them. I won’t vote for them. I would rather lose than have some weak kneed shit bag like Jeb who just wants to “compromise” with leftists. I want leftists defeated. I don’t compromise with people who want to tear down this country.

So I will work to elect Trump again and defeat NeverTrumpers.

NeverTrumpers can get on board or get off the train. We won’t join them

With the way minorities are growing in this country I'd say inside another 10 yrs you won't be seeing many republicans being elected to anything. Republicans don't give a shit about any of them and they soon will be becoming the majority. Never trumpers aren't getting on your train, too many trying to get off.
 
This comment isn't a defense of Trump but I didn't hear any liberals complain when Obama met with and took pictures with Louis Farrakhan. It's the partisanship, not the principle.

Did cons complain when reagan did the same?

Whose hand is Reagan shaking (do you know)? What group is that?

If liberals are arguing against hate and anti-semitism and then Obama and the black caucus meet with Farakhan what's that say? It's the lecturing others when you do the same thing that gets called out. The "racist white men" at SPLC call Farakhan and the NOI a hate group for their anti-semetic and anti-LGBT rhetoric. Us Republicans are racist already right? So it's not surprising we would meet with Farakhan. But why would Democrats?

Both republicans and Democrats meet and shake hands with a lot of unsavoury* people. Remember the pics of Rummy shaking hands with Saddam? Personally I think it's all pretty silly. Pols shake hands and kiss babies, it's the name of the game.

I don't remember Romney doing that but again, we're the racists, and the anti-muslims and the anti-semitists. So it's what we do. You and your fellow Democrats aren't that so why meet with and celebrate those types?
 
Show me I'm wrong. Can you name even a single person that you would find acceptable to carry the Trump mantle and has a modicum of a chance to be elected?

First of all as it stands today Trump is re-elected in 2020

So we have until 2025 in my book

And I already answered your question. I don’t know. We will have to see. Someone is likely to fill the void

You see you fall into the trap that us Trump supporters have somehow been “seduced” by Trump. You have this belief that we are under some spell that the fever just needs to break and then it is business as usual with the Romney types. Well I am here to tell you that is completely wrong

People like me were adamantly opposed to Bush 41 trying to push amnesty. He almost did but WE shut it down. We were tired of milquetoast politicians like Romney and McCain who stood by while the left savaged them.

Then along cane Trump and I admit I wasn’t a supporter in the beginning. I voted for him and hoped for the best. Now I have seen how he has governed and I am all in. He is what many of us on the right have been looking for for years.

He has governed more conservatively than any President since Reagan. He is facing more obstruction from within the GOP than democrats.

That the wall is not built falls at the feet of Ryan and McCuntell. Oh they talked the talk but never walked the walk.

Now who will pick up the the mantle when Trump eventually leaves office? I can’t tell you. What I can tell you is that the sentiment that led to Trump being elected will not abate. You may hope it will but it will not.

The whole “trump is a cult of personality” is a Left wing/Trans Righty trope. It is not based on fact. Trans Righty never trumpers like yourself tell yourselves that to avoid the truth that your brand of politics is being rejected.
 
I disgree that Trump changed the party. I think that he has given voice to many who were ignored by the RINO establishment types. He awakened a sleeping giant

Six of one and half dozen of another lol.

If a rhino can’t survive the next republican primary—the Republican Party has been changed for all intents.

You ask a bullshit question

It is too soon for anyone to say. Who would have predicted in 2014 that bit only would Trump be the Republican nominee but would also win the Presidency

Like I said you are speaking more of wishful thinking on your part than honest analysis because you hope we go back to business as usual where the GOP are lovable losers. Maybe you are just so used to being a second class citizen politically in Commiefornia that you don’t know any better

I’ve never said you were seduced. What I’ve said is there’s only one Trump. No one else can do what he does and get away with it. I don’t care who you vote for. If you’re only going to vote for a Trump 2.0 in the future your voting opportunities will be extremely limited
 
Jeb shot his mouth off,he should challenge Trump for no other reason then to show he has balls.

I hope he does. I would love to see him humiliated again

Maybe he can get more than one delegate next time.

I am sure Trans Rightys like wackjob and PeeDee will jump on board with Jeb

You still don’t get it. You are a shallow thinker.
