Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said he is not surprised by the recent attacks by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
"Well, I think he had no choice,” the real estate mogul told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos Wednesday morning on Good Morning America.

Trump told Stephanopoulos Wednesday that when he was solely focused on business, he had to play nice. “That was my obligation, they termed me a world-class businessman," he said.
The GOP front-runner also responded to one portion of the Bush ad in which he says he doesn’t know why he is a Republican. “They [Republicans] had some ideas that were different than my ideas, and many Republicans were saying [then] they didn’t know why they were Republican.”
Trump is still at the top of all the most recent national polls. He tied with neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson in a new Iowa poll released by Monmouth University earier this week. Trump said he was “surprised” by the poll but added that he “likes Ben very much” and would not attack him, for now.
Trump is off the campaign trail this week before the long Labor Day weekend. Next week, he flies to Washington to join fellow GOP candidate Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, in protesting the Iran nuclear deal. Trump said he does not support the deal, telling GMA it was negotiated by “stupid, incompetent people. There is something wrong with them.”

I’m calling him Jebby Ruxpin from now on.
He simply mouths whatever recording was stuck in his belly that morning. Words, emotions, voice inflection, all fake and preprogrammed.
Hello Rope...
Hi Neck....
There have been many many times that I wondered why I was a Republican too. Lol
Especially in the time since 2014 elections.
He tied with neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson in a new Iowa poll released by Monmouth University earier this week..
******************************************************************
Not really. Trump polled 5 points higher than Carson, since there was a 5 point margin of error, the media called it a “tie”.
Every poll except Monmouth had Trump ahead of Carson by a larger margin but the media jumped all over that one, which by the way, is an old poll now but still being referred to.
Trump said he does not support the [Iran] deal, telling GMA it was negotiated by “stupid, incompetent people. There is something wrong with them.”

I wish to correct The Donald, they are not stupid and incompetent, they are traitors, that is what’s really wrong with them.

Exactly! They don’t dare call here anymore, they get an earful every time.
