Jeb Bush warned at a rally Wednesday that if people thought President Obama was bad, things would only get worse if Donald Trump were elected president. "We will be worse off than we are right now," the former Florida governor said at a rally in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. "And we are pretty bad off right now."
When South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham — who endorsed Bush when he dropped out of the race — gave an introduction at the rally, he heeded a very similar warning. "Let's don't go from incompetent, Barack Obama, to crazy, which is about two of the people on our side," Graham said.
After a sixth-place finish in the Iowa caucuses and a fourth-place finish in Tuesday's New Hampshire primary, Bush is trying to make a comeback in the Feb. 20 South Carolina primary.
