But the most important thing is that they won't have the wreck of a Trump Party in office for 4 years; IF he actually gets into office you KNOW he will be running in 2020, 'cause he will never ever give up power once he has it.

So yeah I could see them pulling the lever for Clinton, absolutely, they are not stupid. They want to live to fight another day.

Wrong!!!! its hard to unsit a sitting President......if you look at history, Hillary needs a divided party and challenge for that. It happened in 1980 when Ted Kennedy challenged President Jimmy Carter and in 1992 when Pat Buchanan and Ross Perot weaken President Bush.

Hillary' machine will only get stronger once she is in Office.

the Bush family are done in the GOP.....Jeb or anybody with the Bush last name will never win the GOP nomination or come close......not after how the Bush family only campaigns for the Republican party if its a Bush on the ticket...they didn't win a lot of hearts now that Republicans know how they feel that they put their feelings and their interests above party and country.

One of the Bush kids ran for something in Texas and won. He endorsed and campaigns for Trump.

The Bush family is first politicians. I suspect they do not believe much of what the grass roots Republican think. Like Choice. The Republican party has changed a lot since H was first elected to Congress. They understand how the game is played.

Just like Donald is learning.

Everything I read suggest his older daughter and Chelsea Clinton are good friends. IMO, that's why he backed off saying stuff about the Clinton family life.

Of course, if you're into political dynasties and plan on continuing them for the next millennia then I guess you support the dynasty running.
I mean, one royal family has to support the other.....right?
It is simple. They want what is best for the country and know that Trump is not it.

I have more respect for them now than if they became the little toady sycophants that Christie, Rubio, Carson and Cruz have become.
This, x 1,000.

Not at all. The Bushes are members of the elite class, same as the Clintons. Protecting the elite class and it's privileges is far more important than any minor ideological differences.

Also, so far as I can tell, the Bushes and Clintons are in 100% agreement on foreign policy and macroeconomics.
