National Review just doesn't get it.

Trump baited Jeb and Jeb fell into the trap.

Trump just handcuffed Jeb to George W.'s administration.

Looks like some on FR don't get it either.;-)

Eventually the GOP establishment and the slow learners on FR will all come round.

I must confess that I didnt get the attacks on W at first and felt it was way over done. It’s all clear to me now and I salute DT for this most shrewd move. That said, call me a tin foiler but I do NOT believe 9/11 was about our freedom, support for Israel, or anything like that. I truly believe it was about the pipeline and who is in the way.

“National Review just doesn’t get it.”

No, they get that they’re pissed off that their guy “Boosh” isn’t going to make it. Now that the Sears Catalog isn’t available, people of modest means should nail copies of the National Review to their outhouse walls to use in place of TP. Rich Lowry is feckless turd!

I disagree sir! Do not make the mistake of believing that people have uncommon sense. It used to be common sense for a reason.

I don’t know if Trump baited him, but Jeb is certainly not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Had he just said “he kept us safe after 9/11”, Trump wouldn’t have had the opening. Trump saw it, and pounced. Completely agree about the rest though.

Exactly. Slick move really, Jeb has sought to distance himself from GHWB & GWB. Trump pushes Jeb into having to defend GWB.

Did it work? Maybe to some extent, but I’d argue that the win on the Trump side is differentiation among the candidates. He is once again demonstrating that he IS NOT a go-along to get-along vanilla candidate. He’s willing to fight on the offensive or defensive side of the ball.

Differentiation and value proposition, huh.. Trump is a business person go figure.
