Jeb Bush complains that the political media have not treated Donald Trump as a serious candidate. They have not dissected Trump's eclectic stances, which, a new Bush ad contends, show the populist as a fake conservative.
Start with that new Bush ad, titled "The Real Donald Trump."
The ad opens with Trump on TV saying: "I lived in New York City, in Manhattan, all my life, OK? So, you know, my views are a little bit different than if I lived in Iowa."
Trump is from New York. Who knew? That's the home of rich, snotty liberals. Ergo, Trump must be a liberal, or so the serious Bush implies.
When it comes time to raise substantial piles of campaign cash, Jeb seems to like New Yorkers just fine. Indeed, he is a frequent flier to the Manhattan till. Last winter, private equity magnate Henry Kravis threw a fundraiser for Jeb at his Park Avenue spread. The price of admission -- $100,000 a ticket -- raised eyebrows even on Wall Street.

Problem is, none of the others attract voter attention like The Donald. Trump is resonating across the widest cross section of voters. Evangelists, fiscons, socons, miltary, old, young, men, women, even disillusioned democrats like Trump better than any other GOP.
I smell a landslide coming!
You may be right. Long way to go, but it does appear less likely that Jeb will win every day.
Jeb the blind squirrel actually ladndd on the first nut of his sorry campaign
DOnnies...smear ot TED CRUZ’S BIRTHER IISSUE”.......has me calling me a lot worse than a populist...person to person
in fac.....t Im willing to,call him a PUNK after that!!
I doubt the JEB has the STONES for that!!!???
Nothing worse than a northeastern leftist
Well THAT really does it for me. How about you? LOL!
And yes, it is amazing who loves Trump’s clarion call to restore the nation and our morale. The closet Trump supporters are, well, everywhere!
Jeb is such a light weight and we all know it. He should just shut the eff’ up and go home.
“Jeb Accuses Trump of Being a New Yorker”
That’s outrageous! Oh, wait ...
Good Lord! We’re all doomed! I hope Trump doesn’t try to come up with a phony birth certificate showing that he was born in an Iowa cornfield or a Texas cotton field. I don’t think I could stand going through that kind of stuff again.
Sure there is. A northeaster leftist pretending to be a conservative is far worse.
I was 12 years old before I learned “damned yankee” was two words. But I think a hard nosed New York businessman beats the pants off these wusses we have to choose from.
It’s hard to imagine anyone “putting the britches on him”, as used to be said a lot.
LMAO ROFL...
I 3xpect him to come out with “I know you are but what am i”.
Bush should drop out...Save himself the embarrassment losing out in the first round of cuts...
So, Bush is a Mexican.
That’s funny stuff, Yeb calling someone a fake conservative.
Bush’s grandfather had his NY bank shut down by the feds for funding the Nazi’s.
“I hope Trump doesn’t try to come up with a phony birth certificate showing that he was born in an Iowa cornfield or a Texas cotton field. “
LOL, he should do both, faked exactly like Obamas!
