?itok=kytn95TKIts not exactly a secret that Jeb Bushs path to the Republicans presidential nomination has run into unexpected obstacles. Facing underwhelming fundraising totals, lackluster standing in polls, and increasingly public hand-wringing from the GOP establishment, the former governors standing recently reached new lows.
Addressing his many troubles at a campaign event in New Hampshire over the weekend, Jeb Bush said, Blah blah blah blah, thats my answer, blah blah blah.
Note, thats not my rude interpretation of a more substantive answer. Thats literally what Bush said, as my colleague Will Femia reported.
But thats not all he said.
If this election is about how were going to fight to get nothing done, Mr. Bush said, then I dont want any part of it. I dont want to be elected president to sit around and see gridlock just become so dominant that people literally are in decline in their lives. That is not my motivation.
He added, Ive got a lot of really cool things I could do other than sit around, being miserable, listening to people demonize me and me feeling compelled to demonize them. That is a joke. Elect Trump if you want that.

He doesn't seem to know what to do if he is elected. Maybe he would just be led around by the nose like his dumber brother.
