I’ll remember Jeb Bush fondly. He was a moderate, amidst all the extremists in the Republican race. He tried to appeal to Hispanics, was even for abortion on certain occasions, such as rape or incest, and his tax plan wasn’t as mad as the other candidates’. He was the establishment candidate, his victory was set in stone.

But then came Trump. At first, the butt of all jokes, Trump was an extremist. He wanted to build a wall, and called all Mexicans rapists. He was known for being extremely tough on his TV show, and promised he’d be the same in office. Slowly but surely he started to gain momentum, and when the debates came around, he dominated. He ‘bullied’ Jeb, and successfully labeled him as ‘low energy’. Jeb didn’t really defend himself, he couldn’t, if we look at the way he acts, he’s always been very polite, and would never really attack the other candidates.

After loosing in South Carolina, Jeb has suspended his bid. Funnily enough, Trump won every delegate in this State. Trump is doing well in the polls, and I think he’s set to win the nomination. And I, in the end, blame Jeb and the other candidates for it all. If, early on, they’d all banded together, dropped out and chose one of them to lead and defeat Trump, they would have been winning now. But it’s too late .

If Jeb had suspended his campaign earlier, he could have saved us all from the billionaire maniac, but now, Trump has real shot of becoming president. And if he does, I blame it on Jeb.
