Former Jeb backer compares Trump presidency to a chimp driving a tractor
The Hill ^ | March 21, 2016 | Mark Hensch

The man who ran a super-PAC backing Jeb Bush's unsuccessful White House run says electing Donald Trump as president would be "like putting a chimp in the driver’s seat of a tractor."

"He doesn’t understand the presidency," Mike Murphy said in a Weekly Standard interview published Monday.

I won't say it takes one to know one. Obviously, Donald Trump is the Conservative with the most charisma today; whereas, Mr. Murphy is only a major embarrassment for Americans of a Celtic origin.

But let's look more closely at why Donald is such an ideal candidate for 2016:

Trump really is a natural (instinctive) Conservative, now in wake-up mode--gathering inspiration from that process. He has already performed an immense service to the Conservative cause.

I’d rather ride on a tractor driven by a chimp than by a total incompetent who for $14 million fee and $ 150 million in wasted contributions, takes his candidate from 17 percent in the polls to 2 percent in the polls. Now, that’s wizardry. What an “expert”!!

Mike Murphy is the chimp who spent $130 million to lose every race his Joyful Tippy-toes Tortoise ran.

Your sarcasm is well placed. The man looks-and apparently has all of the gall—of one selling snake oil remedies out of a wooden, horse drawn cart. That he suckered wealthy emotionally defeated Republican donors, so well, speaks to their folly, not his brilliance.

Oh, it’s more than jobs. One could make a case that supporting illegal alien invasions and stripping the middle class of its wealth in favor of foreign interests is treason, a hangable offense.

Exactly what I was going to say...what's this say about Murphy and Jeb that they got beat by a chimp on a tractor?

Mike Murphy lets just do the math ( not common core) Jeb Bush made 3 States with 150 Million.

How anyone would hire you is beyond me.

As Rush put it , GOP Establishment has come up with a 100 day to defeat Trump

Rush said he never heard of a GOP 100 day Plan to defeat Obama or Hillary.

This is from the guy who made “a minimum of $14 million” and actually a lot more to waste $160 million dollars and completely mismanage the Jeb! Bush campaign.

This guy is interested in only one thing. He wants to line his own pockets and become extremely rich. I doesn't care about our country. He doesn't care about the American people.

In order to get rich he needs a lot of stupid and corrupt politicians. In a government run by Trump he would have to make his money some other way.

If we’re devolving into simians, Trump is simply the monkey-wrench in the dysfunctional GOPe machine.

Nicely said. I might just add, he has the GOPe going bananas.

As it turns out zoological research has determined that
chimps make superb tractor drivers.

5 point bump
