Incoherent Jeb Bush Flubs Being 'Bad Guy'
Hartford Courant ^ | 10/28/15 | KATHLEEN PARKER

Posted on 10/28/2015 4:43:46 AM PDT by jimbo123

When all else is failing, reinvent yourself. This is the new strategy of Jeb Bush's campaign. He's not going to be so nice anymore.

Emerging from a weekend confab with family and donors, Bush is ready to rumble, loaded for bear. He'll dance like a butterfly, sting like a ... WASP?

When Donald Trump goads him about his brother's presidency, Bush will punch him in the nose. OK, probably not, but can't a girl dream? It's a fantastically entertaining thought, but Bush is probably better suited to a duel at dawn, which is not an endorsement of gun violence — nor dawn, though one is always keen to see another.

To sum up, Bush isn't going to take it anymore. Which is cool, though maybe not as cool as not being president, which Bush hinted that he might prefer.

In South Carolina for a town hall meeting, Bush told the audience that if voters want more dysfunctional government, then by all means, vote for Donald Trump. Besides, he added, he has more awesome things he could be doing than being a miserable president.

Actually, it was less coherent than that. Here's the quote:

"If this election is about how we're going to fight to get nothing done, I don't want any part of it. I don't want to be elected president to sit around and see gridlock just become so dominant that people are literally in decline in their lives. That is not my motivation. I've got a lot of really cool things that I could do other than sit around, being miserable, listening to people demonize me and me feeling compelled to demonize them. That is a joke. Elect Trump if you want that."

Fine then.

He’s going to have as many reinventions as the lying Jezebel, Hillary.

He wants no part of it if he has to fight? That’s the GOPe/RINO motto. That’s why the country is losing ground to the lefties.

All Putin would have to do is give him a very evil glare and he’d wet his pants and go home to mommy.

It must be really nice to get paid a lot of money to write something like this and actually have it published . . .

That is so incredibly embarrassing I don’t know why the media doesn’t hang it around his neck.

The passage might be more coherent if you translate it into Spanish.

Yestarday, I posted a thread about likeability ratings used for characters in screenplays. John Ellis Bush scored 1 out 9 (Trump was 7 out of 9). His 1 was being “nice”. It looks like John Ellis Bush is striving to be perfectly unlikeable.

Trump will hang Jeb with it if push comes to shove.

That alone tells us that Jeb is simply not Presidential material.

Jeb’s body language and communication skills suck.

So it doesn’t really matter what he’s saying.
