Jeb Bush said he thinks a fellow Republican should challenge President Donald Trump in 2020, according to a portion of an interview for the series “The Axe Files.”

The excerpt was tweeted by show host David Axelrod, a commentator and ex-adviser to former President Barack Obama. Axelrod’s interview with Bush, who went up against Trump in the 2016 Republican primary, is set to air on CNN at 7 p.m. on Saturday.

“I think someone should run just because Republicans ought to be given a choice,” Bush said. “It’s hard to beat a sitting president, but to have a conversation about what it is to be a conservative, I think it’s important.”

Axelrod wrote in a subsequent tweet that Bush, a former Florida governor, had been “incredibly candid on all fronts,” including on the state of the country and the Republican Party.

In the same interview, according to CNN, Bush also discussed a speech he gave at the inauguration of Maryland Republican Gov. Larry Hogan, who has yet to rule out a 2020 bid. Of Hogan’s own inaugural speech, Bush said he "kind of got a sense that maybe this was an opening" for Hogan to consider a presidential campaign.

Jeb should step up
 
Are the Establishment types that deluded they think another republican could seriously challenge Trump?

Who lol??

I am sure that Jeb and Kasich would do much better than 2016. I encourage Jeb to spend another $100 million of establishment money.

When will they realize that we are finished with their type?

Who in their right mind wants to go back to that lol?

But you’re right: it wasn’t for lack of reason The National Reveiw went under. The NR was the flag ship of country club, limp wristed conservatism.

Like I said, I don’t know what they’re thinking.

Actually, Bill, you misquoted Bush. He did not say that a Republican should run against "dirty" Trump. Altering a quote violates JPP terms of service.

Unfortunately for you there is only one Trump. There is no one else who can say and do what he does and get away with what he does. He is a cult of personality, not a movement. There is no one who can follow in his footsteps

Fwiw, it was the Weekly Standard that went under. National Review is still going

It isn’t unfortunate for me. It is unfortunate for the country.

Trust me most of us aren’t going back to the Jeb types. You can have them. I won’t vote for them. I would rather lose than have some weak kneed shit bag like Jeb who just wants to “compromise” with leftists. I want leftists defeated. I don’t compromise with people who want to tear down this country.

So I will work to elect Trump again and defeat NeverTrumpers.

NeverTrumpers can get on board or get off the train. We won’t join them

The world will go on past the 2020 election. Who is the next acceptable candidate after Trump?

Someone just like him that gets you moderates and the left wingers in such a tizzy you place people on a discussion forum on ignore because you can't defend what you support.

16 Republicans tried to run against him and each one of them got their ass handed to them on the same level as Hillary.

Good point lol.

My point stands though: Trump changed the Republican Party and it’s not a cult of personality. Trump will be gone at some point but there are too many republicans that won’t go back to the McCain/Romney/Bush types of candidates.

It’ll be interesting to see how it turns out at some point.

To me there is no one else who can do what Trump does. There's only one Trump. There are no "Trump Jr.'s" waiting in a Governorship, House seat or the Senate waiting to take over his mantle. You'd have to go outside politics and hope lightening strikes twice in electing someone to President with no government experience. Could it happen? Sure. Is it likely? I'd say no.
