how so? He didn[t blame Bush for 9/11 like Alex Jones and others have. He just stated a fact. Could have said the same about FDR and Pearl Harbor

He gave us 911, Iraq war, Collapse of economy, and last but not least.....OBAMA!!!

You forgot the Patriot Act... Probably the single worst thing to happen to our basic freedoms since the founding.

his mouth is as useless and inappropriate as his goofy combover

AND THESES RECENT INANITIES prove that beyond the shadow of a doubt.

I think a “good job” would be defined as, at the very least, Falluja is now Glass” or “no more Saudi oil” or “screw you United Nations, we don't need your permission”

I do not agree that Bush did a good job. he went with hat in hand to attack sad am who didn't attack us, and it was over a year later.

In the meantime, our southern border was being overrun by illegals.

The other thing that really frosts my grits is the unmitigated gall of the whole Bush family including GW to proudly adopt Bill Clinton impeached ex president, sexual predator and all around morally bankrupt criminal...Would you bring that scum into your home and love him like a brother? I don’t think so.

I wouldn't invite him to my wedding either.

And let’s face it, a big reason Jeb is tanking is because of the Bush name, and Donald knows that.

I think Trump stated a fact, but if he is trying to implicate Bush as being at fault for 911, he is wrong.

Bush did keep us from being attacked again, he should be credit for that.

But, he should be found at fault for some of the ways he did it....like making everyone subject to a security state when we should have focused on terrorist profiling. He had to be politically correct, it was more important than our safety and our freedom.

He was a statist.

Gee Mikey, would you please share with the rest of the Posters on this thread exactly what Trump said that wasn’t true? Did he BLAME Bush or make a statement of Fact?

I see your Bush loving buddies at MSNBC are on it like White on Rice. Oh look Jeb is energized, Jeb who they Hate.

Like it or not, The Buck Stops Here has been applied to every President since Truman (except Obama). Another Tempest in a Teapot for the TDS Crowd I see, and its obvious to anyone that is paying attention, even those who support other Candidates in the Race as I do.

Who was President at the time, Al Gore? Must have missed that.

One other thing, I could give a Rats behind what your Candidate Mr. Jebster the King of Amnesty thinks. My Late Uncle’s Best Friend died in the attack and I lay it all on Bill Clinton, but that doesn’t change the fact of who was in the White House at the time.

Trump’s comments came during an interview Friday with Bloomberg in which he said, “When you talk about George Bush, I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time.”

Challenged during the interview on seeming to blame the 43rd president for the terrorist attack, Trump said, “He was President, OK? Blame him or don’t blame him, but he was president. The World Trade Center came down during his reign.

Question for the ever-articulate [not even close] Trump:

When you talk about George Bush Donald Trump, I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down four bankruptcies occurred during his your time.

Also, Mr. Trump, you owe a debt of gratitude to the media for cleaning up your sloppy verbiage. They kindly took the liberty to remove the first "don't" from your screwy sentence so that you could look a little smarter. Just know that some of us have ears to hear. And here's the way the media should have reported your response for accuracy's sake:

Challenged during the interview on seeming to blame the 43rd president for the terrorist attack, Trump said, “He was President, OK? Don't blame him or don’t blame him, but he was president. The World Trade Center came down during his reign.

They should have even thrown a [sic] in there somewhere to let the world know that the error is not theirs. But I'll hand it to you, Mr. Trump. The folks licking your wingtips on this thread were just fine with Mr. Bush in those years right after the attacks. You have a great talent for mesmerizing and hypnotizing. That much I can tell you.

This article talks about Reagan’s relationship with Trump...it’s not like your picture suggests. Trump actually donated to Jimmy Carter.

Trump wanted to test Jeb and he pushed a button and now he knows...Jeb will never be the man his father is or his brother...and that’s why MAMA said ‘NO MORE BUSHES OR CLINTONS’....

Live with it....

GO TRUMP GO!!!

GWB did a good job of holding a Country together during 9/11, IMHO...the war, well you know Clinton could have had Ben Laden and turned it down, so that’s where the blame needs to go...

Maybe if Clinton would have gotten Ben Laden, we wouldn’t have had 9/11, who knows, do you?
