After Saturday's defeat, Jeb Bush, the 43rd and two-time former governor of Florida announced, he was dropping out of the Presidential race.

Jeb, younger brother to former American president George Bush, whose father was also a former President, was aiming to be the third person from the Bush dynasty to make it to the White House.

But before that journey was truncated by poor result, he had reportedly spent some $89 (£63) million of donated money.

He made his announcement, shortly after Saturday's result, coming fourth with 30,917 votes or (8%) in an election won by Donald Trump with 111,414 votes or (34%).
 
He made his Farewell speech titled "Thank You for the Opportunity to Run for the Greatest Office on the Face of the Earth", following the poor results from South Carolina Primary.
