I am a lifelong Democrat, but in the fall of 2015 I assumed that Jeb Bush would be the Republican nominee and Hillary the Democratic nominee. I planned to vote for her (and did), but was not particularly bothered at the thought that Bush might win, indeed, I expected that he would. I long for those days, when a certain modicum of intelligence, character and integrity was expected and demonstrated in the Presidential nominees of both parties.
Ditto. I was eager at the thought of America having its first female President, but I would not have felt, had Bush (or even Little Marco!) won, that we had just elected the anti-Christ’s understudy.
Well, he didn’t get very far in the primary in 2016 either. I like to think that he is supporting DeSantis now in an “anything but Trump” mindset. De Santis leading in the polls so people support him. I like to hope that when the primaries get going, another candidate will take the lead, and then the others will get together and unite behind that person. They should have done that in 2016 but did not take Trump seriously enough.

AMEN!
Yet Jeb now endorses Ron DeSantis wholeheartedly. What does that actually say about the soul of "Jeb!" (Exclamation point intended)
