Donald Trump on Monday mocked former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush for having to consult his parents over the weekend about his floundering presidential run.
"Bush is out there, his campaign is a disaster," Trump told a morning crowd in Atkinson, N.H. "That's because I came along! I'm proud of it."
Trump also hit Bush for cutting the salaries of his campaign staff. "So he's meeting now with mom and dad," he said. "No it's true, he needs counsel."
"He was very angry over the week. He said, 'if this is going to be this nasty, let them have Trump as their president!'" Trump said. "But if he doesn't like my tone, how's he going to deal with Putin? How's he going to deal with these killers in the Middle East?"

OK, It is time to move on past taking jabs at your rivals
When you are this far ahead, just assume you won and start talking about what you will do as president
Agreed. Jeb is roadkill carcass straddling the yellow line. No need to back over him three or four more times.
"“If I get up on my tippie toes, I'm taller than all of you and can pee higher than Carley"
I disagree. At this point in any campaign, your lead is not safe. Pound and pound and pound away at your RINO opponents to clear the deck. Jeb! deserves a good pounding. He's the one that made the stupid comment insulting voters about Trump.
Donald Trump would have also taken down John McQueeg and Milt Romney in earlier primaries if he had run. The more conventional candidates were unable to do it.
Welcome to the 'American Idol' culture that is the broadest part of the American electorate nowadays. Social media and celebrity rules. I blame Government schools as much as the media.
Primaries haven’t even started and Jeb is still dangerous. He has two former presidents backing him and the entire GOPe is still hoping for him to come back.
Keep pounding until the white flag goes up.
But I like jabbing Jeb. And W. And Poppy. And all their stupid, lazy wives.
“It was Donald Trump who took down Jeb Bush. I’m not sure the other candidates would have been as effective”
If Trump was not in this, Jeb would be #1 in the polls and sitting on a huge amount of cash.
That kind of thinking got us McCain.
Agree 100%
Yep.
If Trump was not in this, Jeb would be #1 in the polls and sitting on a huge amount of cash.

And JEB knows it. This has to grate on the whole Bush clan.
I can just see it now:
Jeb is sitting with Putin, Putin slams his fist on the table, Jeb runs out the door, mommy, daddy, Putin is yelling at me....
This is what you want to lead our country??? Really????

Jebbie made himself a bigger target when he said he had cooler things to do than run for President. I resent it. Running for President should be an honor, not something you do because it’s cool.
