A former Florida Governor is joining the chorus of disapproval of the indictment against former President Donald Trump.
On Saturday, Jeb Bush bashed the indictment of Trump by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
“Bragg’s predecessor didn’t take up the case. The Justice Department didn’t take up the case. Bragg first said he would not take up the case. This is very political, not a matter of justice. In this case, let the jury be the voters,” Bush tweeted.
Bush did not mention the former President’s name, a rhetorical decision that tracks with current Gov. Ron DeSantis, who also has managed to reference the indictment on numerous occasions without saying “Trump,” even as he has plenty to say about George Soros-funded prosecutors.
The backhanded defense of Trump’s legal position comes after the former President has spent months contending DeSantis is effectively the Bush family’s favorite candidate for President, including in the last 24 hours.
On April 1, the former President screenshotted a post by Paul Sperry: “DEVELOPING: The Bushes are running against Trump through ‘proxy’ candidate DeSantis, according to GOP insiders in Texas and Florida. The entire ‘Bush machine’ is behind his campaign, even helping run it.”
“Fox News is promoting Ron DeSanctus so hard and so much that there’s not much time left for Real News. Reminds me of 2016 when they were pushing ‘JEB!’ The new Fox Poll, which have always been purposely terrible for me, has ‘TRUMP Crushing DeSanctimonious,’ but they barely show it. Instead they go with losers like Karl Rove, Paul Ryan and now, even ‘Yesper,’ who have been wrong about everything,” Trump posted to Truth Social in late February.
Bush’s decision to take a position on the Trump indictment was unprompted by a reporter’s question, but it seems to illustrate the bind even retired Republican politicians find themselves in with the former President.

He’s guilty of that and more. The GOP is pro crime. “I just need you to find more votes than we have,” and of course the violent riot was broadcast on television…and still they complain about the heat on Trump. They can’t be taken seriously.

Cannot be taken seriously is a false, contradictory proposition given the size of the movement. Just ignore it and keep your run-a-away inflation, forever-wars, and broken government…

Trump walking away from his landslide victory to allow the people to witness a decline was a 3D Chess move. Been chaos with the full diaper dude with Obama’s 3rd term of destruction.

There was a deadly riot to disrupt a free and fair election..a deadly riot whipped up with lies… and Trump crime spree..”I just need you to find more votes than we have.” You people condemned none of it. All we heard was, “But Soros and Hunter’s laptop.” You people can’t be taken seriously.

Total BS. Its the democRas that promoted and encouraged mass violence in the democRat summer of violence. Chuck Schumer stood on the senate floor and openly called for violence on Justice Kavanaugh AND his family. Maxine Waters openly called for violence on ALL Republicans. Youre just another CNN/DNC brainwashed propaganda spewing UI.

The last time the voters were the jury, he lost by 7,000,000.
Obviously, based on everything he did after election day, he didn’t understand the verdict.
The good news is that all these Republicans who put down Biden are forced to admit he’s president in order to do so.
Jeb! is still “weak, and low energy,” and sucking up to Trump proves it.

And immediately Biden’s popularity was at 40%, indicating most of those votes were of the midnight ballot variety.

Good evening America,
What leftists dont understand is JEB is more left than they are. JEB is more left than Mitt Romney. Leftists JEB is you and agrees with everything you leftys agree with. JEB is more like you than you lefties are like you. JEB is so far left that we are very busy working on a name that may describe just how far left JEB really is.
RINO wont even do for JEB he is way far left from a RINO.
Dont worry America I Earl Pitts American, have the worlds best brains working 24/7 in shifts in order to sieze on a word that may describe exactly how far left JEB really is. At this time we are estimating success some time after the rapture.
But thats OK. I, Earl Pitts American, and my lovely wife, Earline Pitts American, will have already ascended into Heaven in the rapture but JEB and you leftys will still be here wailing, gnashing your teeth, rendering your garments, and of course dooking on yourselves.
Well fans of Earl Pitts American thats about all the great wisdom and superior knowledge I have to share with my many followers tonight.
Y’all have a great evening America,

It’s only political because it is about the immoral and corrupt GOP leadership. If the law was broken, no one is above that in America. In Trump’s case, it is about time that some of his misdeeds are catching up with him. Let the GOP circle the wagons, it will only lead to their demise at the polls. And for the record, criminal actions are not adhjucated at the polls which is why we have courts!

So JEB is now acknowledging what Americans who voted for Trump in 2016 have been known for the last decade.
He’s not just low-energy, he’s slow witted, another go-along to get-along politician, and he offers nothing to the common man.
Voters saw right through him.
Show me a man who treats voters like they are stupid, and I’ll show you a truly stupid man.

Trump warned them. Conservatives warned them. It isn’t TRUMP they hate, it’s all of you. He said when they go after me, they’re going after you. And if this holds, and proceeds with an outcome they want. The dam will break. They will go full tyrant.
HE WARNED YOU!!!!

President Donald Trump is feared by the deep state as he is a threat to their systematic destruction and looting of the USA. Which is why they have declared him guilty & impeached from the moment he won in the 2016 election. Remember Jeb Bush, John McCain Mitt Romney & the other RINOs ENDORSED & promised to vote for Joe Biden, Hogwash, open borders, America last globalist Jeb Bush is trying to fake standing up against the Biden regime he voted for in the hopes he helps his hand picked and funded RINO Ron DeSantis benefits. Jeb’s comment doesn’t oppose Bragg’s unconstitutional attack, he endorses Bragg’s all biased jury to declare Trump guilty If you allow President Trump’s civil rights his due process to be denied by Alvin Bragg’s controlled star chamber court, do not cry when it happens to you. Stand up & protest for our constitution

Also news: USA allows a male child dressed as a girl to twerk/dance for adults while on a leash. How America has fallen….in just two years with the aid of Democrats.
