Most Americans don't give a rat's behind about what George Bush did 12 plus years ago. Fact is, at the time most of our allies believed there were WMD and there were news reports at the time that showed that some had existed but been moved to Syria.

But the fact is, this is all a left wing nut kind of stuff that we would expect from Bernie and Hillary but not a Republican. Trump just plain looked out of control and angry Sat night. Might play well for you guys on here, but not with the public in general.

Now, why did Trump do all of this? I think it is all because of his visceral hatred of Jeb Bush. Jeb has gotten under his skin and now he has to go after not only Jeb, but his family. It shows the tenor of the man. He can't hold his temper. I don't support Jeb, never will. But I don't think we should go after family, no more than Cruz's kids or Trump's wife.

Now, for the final correction. when Bush left office Iraq was pacified and stable. It would have stayed that way if Obama had signed the agreement allowing a contingent of U. S. troops to remain for the foreseeable future. But Obama pull everyone out (you Trump guys must really love him for that!) and left it alone to fend for itself. It was Obama, with radical actions and support for radical Muslims that lit the fuse to explode the Middle East. Put the blame where it belongs, Obama, not Bush.

You people ought to realize there is a world outside of FR and that world generally can’t stand Cruz and is pro-Trump. Go to any social media conservative website and read the overwhelming support for Trump (Levin and Red State excepted - Levin censors his posters and Red State hates Trump). Go take a walk over to Hannity’s FB page right now and read the comments regarding Dubya’s appearance on his show tonight. Outright mockery of both Jeb and Dubya and a hell of a lot of people pissed off at Dubya’s presidency. Facts are, nearly 2/3rds of Americans believe there were no WMDs in Iraq and about the same number view the war in Iraq as a mistake. You and others are just upset because Trump has the ability to read the feelings of the American public and has the backbone to actually say things that others won’t.

Good post.

I think Trump’s meltdown Saturday was because of hatred of Jeb Bush. This has been kicked around by other posters but we couldn’t figure out the source.

It actually doesn’t take that much for Trump. Months of hate over a TV newscaster named Megyn. What’s up with that. People in office or running for it will always be abused by the media. Most blow it off.

So what could Jeb have done? It’s not as though Jeb were a real threat to Trump at this point.

This man is seriously unstable. I do not want him at the helm of our country in these times.

His supporters seem to think he will bring them all a raise and a puppy but we face a serious threat from outside forces.
