Jeb Accuses Trump of Being a New Yorker
RCP ^ | September 8, 2015 | Froma Harrup

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.

My uncle used to work for Henry Kravis

Adored him and was treated generously

Inside baseball

Both Kravis and Jebbie are actually Quasi Texicans

One born into rich a Jewish petro family from Tulsa and later into the takeover biz in NYC first for Bear Stern then hisself

The other sorta rich blue blood New England WASP mainline ultra pedigreed yankee born into west Texas Permian Basin and later Houston as well

Henry and Jebbie much alike....Patrician oblige

Moderate GOPe

In normal times we could do worse....and I actually admire Kravis skills in business and managing high maintenance women

But these are not normal times

Yeb! may regret starting/opening a ‘pot calling kettle black’ pissing contest/can of worms with The Donald.
If that makes any sense.

That is a mouthful right there. Most people do not realize how perilous situation is world wide. Stock Markets are tanking every where, with much more to go. Our exploding national debt (even disregarding unfunded Medicare & SS liabilities) is inching us closer and closer to Greece. Pray America will wake up in time, and elect a person known to get things done, and not a career politician who promise anything and then do what his rich donors command him to do.

Trump (or ANYONE ELSE) could do an anti jebster ad with him giving HILLARY CLINTOON an award and praising her.

He’s married to a MEXICAN who he met when he was in MEXICO...............does that make HIM MEXICAN?

No wonder he speaks Spanish so well.

I look at this way. The more they attack Trump for being a New Yorker, the more likely he will sew up the New York State vote. There are a lot of electoral votes there.
