Why Hillary Is Rooting For Jeb
There is an obvious subtext to the panicked effort to purge the GOP of Donald Trump: to allow the party’s true hero to emerge to vanquish Hillary Clinton and restore peace and justice throughout the land. To most GOP elites, of course, the savior is Jeb Bush, complete with the Clark Kent glasses and aw-shucks good guy demeanor. ("demeanor"? More like dementia) The Chamber of Commerce crowd is so convinced that Jeb is the man that it (so far) has placed a bet of more than $100 million on that proposition. (Jeb has been bought and paid for. That's for sure!)
There’s just one problem—the Clintons want Jeb Bush to be the GOP nominee, too.
It was Trump himself who picked up on this fact when Hillary Clinton singled out Bush for criticism over his remark that “I’m not sure we need a half a billion dollars for women’s health issues.” Bush later said he “misspoke.” ("Oh, gee! I'm sorry! I really am a nice guy! I'll behave. I PROMISE! ")
By going after Jeb directly, and far from the first time, the Clintons want to “elevate” him, Trump charged, because they know they can beat him.
And I fully agree! Jeb, like Romney before him, and McCain before him, are like accordions to democrats. Collapsible and easily plays their tune!
