Trump piles on Jeb: 'An embarrassment to the Bush family'
The Washington Examiner ^ | December 20, 2015 | Al Weaver

Posted on 12/20/2015 1:51:22 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Donald Trump continued to bash Jeb Bush Sunday, calling his 2016 foe "an embarrassment to the Bush family" after the former Florida governor called Trump a "jerk" on the stump Saturday.

Appearing on "Meet The Press," Trump also lampooned Bush's poll numbers, saying that he's likely to be off the debate stage soon because of how low they are. He said the GOP "isn't even listening" to Bush anymore.

"Jeb is a weak ... ineffective person. Jeb, if he were president, it would just be more of the same. It would be — he's got money from all of the lobbyists and of the special interests that run him like a puppet," Trump said. "[H]e's going to be off the stage soon."(continued)

Disagree with trump on this one. Yeb is perfectly consistent with the Bush vision thing.

Special interests do run the Jeb’s and Hillary’s of this world like puppets.

That is the truth as far as it goes.....

I would not be as personal as Trump in his comments along the lines of ‘embarrassment’.

“I can see blood coming out of the Bushes “whatever” from my house.’

At least Yeb has one. Hilary traded hers away years ago so that she could become a full time dick

I have a feeling that Jeb is going to cold-cock Trump on national TV.

Trumps entering the whitewater here soon. Once they find a chink in his armor (and I hope not), it’s going to be brutal.

It’s one thing when you talk like he does and people pay attention, it’s another were they’re not.

I agree where is W? The Bush family of late lost their way. As long as the big money people were taken care of. Like the Saudis.

I don’t think your going to see Jeb in the campaign much longer...there is to much information being read by people, such as I and others, that goes way back before they started scrubbing articles...that can cause a lot of embarrassment for the Bush Family....

They do want to maintain some of their reputation, of sorts, not to have it completely ruined by Jeb.....

George H.W. Bush is a great war hero, father, president and man. Incredible career, wonderful man. Flame away I could care less that man deserves defending.

Jebito is another story. And George W meant well but ...

So what? Carter served in the Navy. Should his miserable failure as President be excused?

May be all true but said without humor or empathy. I don’t think Jeb is an evil person but he’s like someone said, all it takes for evil to triumph is that good men do nothing.

Bush Sr was not a great President.

There is a reason he was a 1 Term President.

Let’s not confuse his military service with his politics.

But W wouldn’t even defend himself and became the human pinata for two years.
