For Donald Trump, it wasn’t enough to upstage Jeb Bush by booking a town hall meeting at the same time as the former Florida governor. Trump had to attack him, too.
In a 30-minute news conference in Derry, New Hampshire, that was broadcast live on Fox News and CNN, the real estate mogul ripped into his GOP primary rival, saying, “I don’t think he’s electable.”
“Jeb Bush is a low-energy person. For him to get things done is hard,” a feisty Trump said. Trump went after the former Florida governor on multiple fronts, dismissing Bush’s positions on education, health care, immigration and foreign policy.
After criticizing Bush’s support for the Common Core educational standards, Trump turned to Iraq.

At his town hall later that night — his first of the campaign — Trump continued the attacks.
“Right down the road, we have Jeb — very small crowd,” he said. “You know what’s happening to Jeb’s crowd right down the street? They’re sleeping now.”
Low energy is putting it mildly...oh wait, is that a double entendre? :D
I can’t wait for Trump Wall to be built, keeping Jeb’s kin out.
Thought his best remark was on Kerry/Obama not putting the American prisoners in Iran in the deal saying "it would complicate things".
Trump said he would say at the very start for Iran to release the Americans. "It's good for us and it's good for you". If they refused he would walk away, if they wouldn't yield on that point in the beginning, they would yield on anything. Art of the Deal.
Politico is arguing about a few hundred billion dollars. How many hundreds of billions will be saved from illegal immigration? I bet a lot more than the cost of the fence.
any numbers on bushes event?
Zzzzzzz....
bout 150 I heard
Wow. It looks like they’re really drawing energy from each other, right?
lol...
Bush looks as unhappy as the attendees.
The body language tells the story. Absolutely nobody wanted to be in that room any longer than they had to be. Check out the younger folks standing against the back wall with their arms crossed. I think they were only there to drive the people sitting down back to the nursing homes.
Trump’s right (again)....these folks DO look like they’re sleeping!
Bush needs to be relentlessly, brutally and viscously savaged for conspiring with GOPe to try and rig the nomination. Unforgiveable. We cannot tolerate such utter BS from the Party. Bush remains Ronald Reagan’s biggest mistake. Unfortunately, a gift that keeps giving.
It's a smart investment unlike the 1-2 trillion dollars your brother blew in Iraq.
Check out the body language of all the people in the room. It screams "Get-me-out-of-here".
Bush’s speeches are so boring, he’s resorted to doing card tricks.
Look at the girl in the light green shirt...lol
the gal in the back actually seems to be yawning.
