I hope this is a lesson for those who like dickin' around with who they vote for in the primaries.
Jeb could have beat Hillary will integrity and likely could have been a 2 term president.
But nooo, the GOP wanted the clown shmuck who isn't even a real freakin conservative.

No he couldn't.
Trump won the primaries and may win the general election because he captured the same anti-establishment mood that carried a back-row independent from Vermont to the brink of being the Democratic nominee.
Jeb Bush (who I think is an honorable man) would have simply been another round of Bush v Clinton and the results would look just like 2008 and 2012.
Trump may well lose too, but he brought states like Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa, and even New Hampshire into play and Jeb would have had ZERO chance at any of those.
For the record, today was the first time in the entire cycle I cast a vote for Trump. My primary vote went to Marco Rubio. I'm not thrilled with having to vote for someone you correctly identified as not being a real conservative, but to say Jeb could have won is really beyond ridiculous.

two uneducated statements. Jeb would not have won. i would not vote for him and i've never not voted for the republican candidate (not proud of that.) he would have been toast from the get go.
secondly, the GOP did not nominate Trump. Independents and crossovers did. Trump did not win a single closed primary, meaning that people who are registered as republicans did not elect him as the nominee in a single state till Cruz dropped out.
