George Prescott Bush, 40, the current Land Commissioner for Texas, called on Republican voters to come together and fall in line behind Trump during a GOP event on Saturday.
‘I know a lot of us in this room had dogs in the fight in the primary, leading up to to the race, but you know what, it’s time to put that aside,’ he said, the Texas Tribune reports.
‘From Team Bush, it’s a bitter pill to swallow, but you know what? You get back up and you help the man that won, and you make sure that we stop Hillary Clinton.’
Bush, as the state’s victory chairman, has the job of organizing the party’s campaign in November.
Prescott, get a rag. Daddy is drooling again.
Not sure how it happened but he is in practice a small government conservative and has cut a lot of the jobs in the land office since taking over. He clearly has a political future in mind. And he just showed Ted Cruz, Kasich, Jeb Bush, et al how you endorse someone and unify without selling out your values for the good of the country.
Both elder Georges have benefitted the greatest from the Republican party support over decades, but have yet to endorse the party’s candidate. They have tarnished and betrayed those who put them where and were they are today (in the lap of luxury).
The youngest George Bush, who still has much to gain, has endorsed Trump.
Opportunistic move or a principled action?
Given the actions of both elder Georges and Jeb, I suspect opportunistic strategy for the future of Junior George.
Would have been nice to see him do that at the convention. But better late than never.
He looked into the past and saw the Republicans that worked against Goldwater become pariahs. He also saw the one national R at the time that campaigned for Goldwater go on to become president.
I think W not coming to the convention was the most chickenshit thing I’ve seen in a long time. I lost all respect for him-it was a disgusting thing to do. As for Jeb!, he’s a turd anyway, but I thought W has class.
Hispanics for Trump!
Maybe that apple rolled downhill?
Hell! W2 went to war cause somebody threatened his daddy, taking a swipe at Trump for embarrassing his brother nationwide, small potatoes.
Who would expect W to endorse Trump? He said in a debate with 20 million + watching that W lied about WMD’s just so he could start a new war?
Even Jeb’s smile is weak. Good for you Prescott for acting like a man.
Maybe Jeb! isn’t the father? (just thinking out loud)
Who said anything about endorsing Trump-I said W was a chickenshit for skipping the convention. He’s a republican isn’t he?
Better that he stayed away since he is not endorsing him.
Opportunistic to stay in the game. This is a good clue tho that they fully expect Trump to win now.
……………please clap….
Smart move for getting on the Trump train. He may have a political career not like Jeb who just ruined his by being a poor sport. I think the Bushes are for Hillary they are friends you know. This one just made a smart move. He might make it to the White house one day.
