We're not psychic, JEB! is just that uncreative and predictable.

Here at Jebwatch, we have been calling The Crown Prince John Ellis Bush JEB! from the very beginning, and we have been referring to his unneeded and ill-fated vanity run next year as JEB! 2016.

Well guess what?  He took notes, and agreed with us that a parody of a parody is exactly what becomes a third Bush who is trying to buy and steal the White House! We still think the all caps version is better.

So if JEB! is that predictable when it comes to campaign names and logos, here are some other predictions:

1.  He will buy the Republican nomination in 2016.

2.  He will lose the general election to Hillary aka Hilldog aka The Hildabeast.

3.  If he manages to buy and steal the election, and become president, he will:

a. renew a massive ground war in Iraq and attack Iran.

b. sign a law passed by Congress slashing the capital gains tax on "job creators", and raising taxes on payrolls and earned income.  Also this law will allow corporations to repatriate profits from outsourced production back to the US with little or no taxation.

c. sign a law passed by Congress setting up a guest worker program that does not provide a path to citizenship, and call that "comprehensive immigration reform" and an "act of love."

d. Before he leaves office, the US government will run a 2 trillion dollar annual deficit, and there will be a sovereign debt crisis in financial markets.

e. and Republicans will claim every bit of that is Obama's fault.

Donald to JEB!: "You're Fired!"

Yes, Fox BNN will try to keep The Donald out of any debate featuring the Crown Prince, and yes, The Donald is now in second place in national Republican primary polls, and in second place in New Hampshire.  What's a Bush to do?  Change the rules just for Trump, that's what.

That's what because if Donald Trump is on a debate stage with JEB! there is one thing he is certain to do.  Just as Reagan deflated an already leaky Carter in 1980 with his "are you better off" quip, and just as he did again to Mondale in 1984 with his "youth and inexperience" barb, The Donald is going to glare over at jowly JEB! on that stage, point at him, and bark, "You're Fired."

No, Donald Trump is not going to be the Republican  nominee, JEB! Bush is.  But Donald Trump is running to make sure that JEB! goes no further. So much for the dynasty.  Welcome to the Big Tent, the Greatest Elephant Show on Earth in 2016.  Coming to your town, starting August 6. Don't miss the big rollout parade, featuring Dumbo and the pooper scooper.

It's upon us (God help us): ‘JEB! 2016′ campaign will downplay ‘Bush’

When his presidential bid begins June 15, he'll seek to distance himself from his brother and father.

(Portland Press Herald) - KENNEBUNKPORT — A banner in the town square says, “Happy 90th Barbara Bush.” Postcards read “Kennebunkport: 2 presidents, 1 town.” A local gift shop is selling unofficial “Jeb Bush 2016″ magnets.

In this coastal hamlet made famous by George H.W. Bush and his cigarette boat, it is hard to escape the Bush family – but Jeb Bush is trying hard to do so.

After festivities this weekend to celebrate his mother’s 90th birthday, Bush will jet overseas for a foreign-policy tour and then launch his 2016 presidential campaign 1,500 miles to the south, in Miami.

The iconic family compound here, called Walker’s Point, is a fitting metaphor for what has emerged as Jeb Bush’s central political challenge: how far to distance himself from his family’s political legacy.

The past month has brought into stark relief the fundamental dilemma posed by Bush’s lineage, even as his front-runner status fades. He repeatedly stumbled to answer questions about the now-unpopular Iraq War started by his brother and has been visibly conflicted about whether to embrace or play down the policies and reputations of his closest relatives.

JEB!: "I'm The Guy To Beat"

The Crown Prince sat for an audience with Neil Cavuto on the FOX BNN (Bush News Network) and flatly stated "I want to be the guy to beat."  He also gave an unreserved endorsement of the surveillance state (which he will certainly need at his disposal if general strikes start over another Bush electoral theft).

Meanwhile PMSNBC resident Bush shill and dodo bird Chris Matthews was up to his old worshipful antics:

"...Jeb Bush who has some fortitude. I mean, he married somebody from a different country, he broke from the Bush WASPiness, you know? He's certainly not Dubya. In terms of the IQ. He's his own guy. And he wouldn't have gone into this stupid war. He's just loyal."

How do you know he wouldn't have "gone into this stupid war" Chris? Do you have enough certainty of that to vote for him just like you did his brother back in 2000 after he impressed you when he told you he wanted a "humble" foreign policy?

JEB! to formally announce for the Crown on June 15

(NBC News) - Jeb Bush is set to officially announce his presidential campaign on June 15 --almost exactly six months after saying that he was actively exploring a White House run. And for Jeb, the official announcement couldn't come soon enough: Aside from questions whether he's violated the spirit (or even the letter) of campaign-finance laws during this time, he's gone from the singular GOP frontrunner to someone who's on the verge of losing any frontrunner status...As for Jeb's presidential announce on June 15, it will take place at Miami Dade College, which just happens to be one of the largest universities/colleges in the country. And it also happens to be the place where many immigrants are getting their degrees. In some ways, it's a perfect general-election setting for Jeb. He's doubling down on being pro-immigrant and his "Right to Rise" message. The question, of course, is whether it's the message that Republican primary voters want to hear. Read more.

JEB! Bush to decide on entering presidential race after trip to Europe

Why should I even HAVE to run?  It should just be handed to me!

(The Telegraph) - Former Florida governor Jeb Bush said he'll decide on entering the 2016 presidential race soon after his trip to Europe, which starts in a week.

Mr Bush has been campaigning and fundraising for months and the political world would be shocked if he did not enter the Republican nomination race.

There are various reasons politicians dance around the question of whether they're running. One big reason: Once they declare their candidacy, they can no longer work directly with super political action committees that are raising money to help them.

Mr Bush said he's already checked with his wife and children and they are "totally all in."

Pressed on CBS' "Face the Nation" in an interview aired on Sunday on his plans to announce a presidential candidacy, Mr Bush spoke as if the decision is not his own.

"I hope I run," he said. "I hope, I hope, I'm a candidate in the near future."

What might possibly persuade him not to run? "Who knows?" Mr Bush replied. "I've learned not to answer a lot of hypothetical questions."

Mr Bush said he'll decide soon after his trip to Poland, Estonia and Germany in early June. Read more.

GOP Train Wreck Coming: Poll claims 60 percent of Republicans will not vote for nominee JEB! Bush

This is BS. The wingnuts don't have to like me, they
just have to FALL IN LINE.  Like the old general said
in Dr. Zhivago, GET BACK IN YOUR RANKS!!

In a poll by Game Changer PAC, surveying 2,226 likely Republican voters, 59.66% of respondents said that if Jeb Bush ends up as the 2016 Republican Presidential Nominee… they won’t vote at all in the 2016 General Election.

The poll shows that Republican voters  are tired of holding their noses and will no longer vote in lock-step with the party.

Bush is seen as a fundraising powerhouse and is on track to raise over 100 million dollars by the end of May. This fact is causing the establishment wing of the Republican party to salivate more than Pavlov’s Dogs in a fire drill. The sad fact is that throughout recent history BOTH major parties have decided which perspective nominees will be endorsed by the full weight of their parties primarily on fundraising successes.

The Republican party has been dealing with push-back from this model for the last few years with the rise of the Tea Party- and has seen some positive results and an energized base- though this is not the party’s doing or desire. Read more.
