Not looking that good for ¡Jeb!

| No Comments

The GOP really wants us to have another re-run of the Bush family but We the People are not having any of it. His popularity was high att he start but has been dwindeling when it became clear that he didn't have any original ideas in his pointy lil' head.

From the Federalist:

Is Jeb Bush Getting Ready To Drop Out Of The Race?
Jeb Bush has been having a rough couple of days.

According to Politico, Jeb has decided to cut the salaries of all his campaign staff in an effort to save dwindling funds. Employees were informed that their salaries would be reduced during a conference call this morning.

The move to cut staffers salaries makes sense, as Bush has been hemorrhaging cash for a while now. The most recent financial disclosure reports reveal that Bush burned through 86 percent of the $13.4 million he raised over the past three months. He currently has less cash on hand than opponents Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Ben Carson. This recent cutback is only the latest of his campaign’s attempts to trim down costs. Over the past several months, staffers salaries have been incrementally slashed and the campaign has been staying in cheaper hotels when they travel.

Money woes aren’t Bush’s only concern, though. He’s been slipping in the polls lately and has been struggling to gain double-digit favorability among voters in key states like Iowa and New Hampshire. He currently is tied for fifth place in Iowa with Carly Fiorina and is trailing behind Carson, Donald Trump, Cruz, and Rubio.

Time to say Buh-Bye - he was a competent governor in Florida but is not Presidential material (but that did not stop our current pretender to the throne).

I do love what Donald Trump has been doing - shaking up the establishment and making the people take a good clear look at what the real problems are. My choice would be Ted Cruz or Carly Fiorina. Jphn Bolton as Secretary of State.
