Remember when the Bushes foisted him on Texas' (admittedly gullible) voters?

They want him in the White House - and I doubt they'll stop trying (can't imagine why).

From 2014:

GOP's secret idiot? If George P. Bush is its future, the party's in trouble

Dubya's nephew is running for office, and is Rand Paul's expert on Hispanic voters. But his luck may be running out

George Prescott Bush, son of Jeb and grandson of George Herbert Walker, is running for Texas land commissioner. Next stop: the White House!

As long as he manages to get himself elected land commissioner, that is - which may actually require more than simply wanting the job and being named Bush.

Not many Texas voters really understand what the land commissioner does, making it the perfect office for someone with a lot of money and/or name recognition but no prior experience. Unfortunately, it is actually a pretty powerful state office, responsible for millions of acres of land, including mineral rights leasing.

The Austin American-Statesman went on to endorse Bush's Republican opponent, mostly for not being George P. Bush.

Bush has run a classic rich man's non-campaign, ducking the press and limiting public appearances to brief, completely controlled situations.

As Texas Monthly's Paul Burka pointed out, Bush committed to running for land commissioner primarily because it seemed "the path of least resistance."

If any Texas Republican ever takes offense from being called gullible, I'd tell them:

Y'all must be right by the dictionary definition.

I wonder if drinking excessively is the same as snorting adderall regarding the voices..??

As he wondered drunkenly through the WhiteHouse.

I can see Trump gnawing on a chicken leg muttering to himself after sniffing Adderall!

mean and conniving. He wants to ruin the U.S. in a similar way to the way Potter ruined the alternate town.
