Jeb Bush staff shopping résumés ready to jump ship

After tonight’s South Carolina primary when Jeb Bush once again humilates his family and gets slaughtered by Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and maybe one of the other candidates. Bush staffers see the writing the writing on the walls and are ready to jump ship after tonight. Please clap.

Jeb Bush staff shopping résumés ready to jump ship

The only consultant who would speak on the record, West Palm Beach’s Randy Nielsen, is a Rubio supporter who is involved in a variety of legislative and local campaigns. He said via text message that Bush campaign workers are a sought-after commodity because “he has some talented folks on his team. A lot of people will sign them up in a NY minute.”
“Staffers are floating résumés now. We’ve been contacted by several. People have gotta eat, you know?” Nielsen said.
Whether it’s rooted in clear-eyed reality or just fear of reading bad headlines, the concern of some of these Bush staffers as they talk to other Republicans outside of the campaign feeds the background noise about the campaign being imminently in peril.
In response to POLITICO’s report, Bush told FOX’s Megyn Kelly on Friday night: “I don’t read Politico. I think it’s trash.” He didn’t deny the substance of the report.
After the Politico story posted, a Washington-based Republican involved with multiple GOP races called to say that the phenomenon is not limited to Florida. A Bush staffer had approached his group in search of work, starting as soon as next week.

Time to get Jeburrito. Take your wife, old mother and brother with you.
