Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush urged President Trump on Tuesday to act as a voice for "moral clarity" and more forcefully reject racism and hate groups.
In a series of tweets, Bush, who once battled Trump for the Republican presidential nomination, said the president should quit parsing blame for the recent violent protests in Charlottesville, Va., on various groups and call instead for unity.
This is a time for moral clarity, not ambivalence. 1/3 — Jeb Bush (@JebBush) August 16, 2017
I urge @POTUS to unite the country, not parse the assignment of blame for the events in Charlottesville. 2/3 — Jeb Bush (@JebBush) August 16, 2017

FU Jeb
I don’t know what the future holds, but I do know that you and Romney are a spent force in conservative politics. Do you realize that? Or will you try for an embarrassing and destructive attempt to claw back power in the GOP?
Another act of love.
Poor sickly Yeb.
The full Jeb! quote was:
“Si se puede. Por La Raza todo, Fuera de La Raza nada”
And remember, illegally entering the United States is An Act of Love.
Jeb is a mess.
Jeb is a waste.
The country is still recovering from the effects of the first two Bush Presidencies. One more would have destroyed us.
Low energy Jeb!!!! 100 million — 4 delegares. Say no more
What ambivalence? There was a very clear moral equivalence between the BLM and the “white supremists”, both of which are BLINDLY racists, and between the “Neo-Nazis” and the “Antifas”, tracing back to the bitter and deadly confrontation between the original Nazis following Adolf Hitler, and the “anti-Fascist” Communists under Josef Stalin.
The more things change, the more they keep reverting back to some tribal warfare existence.
There were no innocents in the confrontation in Charlottesville. The escalation was due almost entirely to the decision of the local authorities to have the police forces stand down. Don’t suppose they were in on this whole Kabuki theater production, do you?
President Trump’s moral clarity is that of the Constitution of the United States, not that of the ‘social/justice/cultural mob’ demands.
What a ride this has been!
GFY Bush!
Yes, those rallying against tearing down the monuments to their history were ill advised to allow people waving Nazi flags to join their protest. National Socialism is the absolute opposite of the Confederate heritage. But is Jeb really so dense that he cannot accept that the Leftist thugs, dressed for the coming rumble, were every bit as much to blame for that rumble, as the mixed purpose group they assaulted?
I do not think that Jeb is that dense. I think he is simply pandering to a viciously unfair mass media. If that is moral clarity, the words have lost all meaning.
He was clear. Denounce the communists Jeb!
...”Yeb: “moral clarity” = surrendering to Antifa brownshirts”...
Moral clarity cannot be had when blame is placed before the facts are known. President Trump handled that situation exactly as it should have been handled at the time. I wonder how America will eventually like it’s Orwellian society?
Easy for him to say as he’s one of the uniparty.
See Puff jump.
Watch Dick and Jane laugh at Jeb.
Moral: NO MORE BUSHES!
The time for ambivalence Jeb, was your campaign.
Hey azzhole: The is nothing more clear than condemning ALL violence.
