Jeb Bush Announces He's Suspending His Campaign

Posted by Heather

Jeb! Bush finally admitted what's been obvious to all of us for some time now and suspended his presidential campaign:

Jeb Bush is suspending his campaign for the Republican nomination, he announced Saturday night.

Bush struggled for months to make inroads against Donald Trump, who constantly mocked the former Florida governor's "low energy" and for spending tens of millions of dollars on his campaign.

But it was Bush's disappointing finish in South Carolina, where his brother, former President George W. Bush, and mother, former first lady Barbara Bush, campaigned for him, that was the final straw.

"The people of Iowa and New Hampshire and South Carolina have spoken and I really respect their decision, so tonight I am suspending my campaign," Bush said, before being overtaken by emotion.

All the money in the world wasn't going to save this stinker of a presidential campaign.
