A frustrated Jeb Bush unloads on Donald Trump

EXCERPT

"They would be a danger for our country. To ban all Muslims coming into the country, it's - it would make it harder to destroy ISIS, which has got to be the first priority," Bush explained. "Insulting the third largest trading partner of the United States, Mexico, not going to work. It's not serious. It's not. ... It turns off a lot of people that are ultimately going to make the decision who the president's going to be."

Bush is particularly dismayed by Trump's expressions of support for Putin. On this issue, Bush again attempted to contrast himself with his rival by thoroughly outlining his policy ideas.

"He's not informed," Bush said of Trump adding, "We have to confront the ambitions of Putin. We have to earn his respect by being a strong presence in the world and that means, for example, that you forward lean with troops stationed today in Germany, into Poland, and the Baltics, that you have joint training exercises in a much more robust way to show that we’re serious, that you build ... a counter cyber security effort and an offensive capability that is second to none."

Trump's kind words for Putin came after he received compliments from the Russian leader. Bush wondered aloud whether he could get Trump to stop mocking him with a similar approach.

"For Donald Trump to be praised and immediately turn to this Putin lover, I think maybe I should just say he's the greatest man alive and see how he responds to that," mused Bush. "It's like this is - this is a man in need of just lots of praise apparently."

“”Oh I can’t support Hillary,” Bush said. “Hillary is untrustworthy. We need to restore trust in the White House.””

Oh, WONDERFUL, time for a NEW TONE, I guess. Did his brother a whole hell of a lot of good.

That's pure genius, Jeb, and I get it! Bring them over here so that we don't have to travel so far to get them.

Trump and Cruz ain't got nothing on you when it comes to brains, do they boy.

`Is Bush still in the race?`

Bush is doing this because he is about to fall off the debate stage.

Bush feels the pressing shame of his family. His `loser` status solidifies the moment he's pushed off the main stage. All he's after is a point or two and a little help from Rinse and Fox.

I was being slightly sarcastic. I can’t see Trump picking Jeb. I can see him picking Cruz... that would be a clever move.

Yeb. You... You fat, soft, dim, Mexican wannabee... The idea of you handling the American military like you handled your campaign is the stuff of nightmares. We would look back to the days of Jimmy Carter with nostalgia.

“Not fit to run his own household, much less America.”

No he isn’t. The criminal tendencies of each and every member of his immediate family must not be glossed over. Smuggling, tax evasion, substance abuse, stalking, attempted burglary, public sodomy and resisting arrest.

Forward lean? What in the great wide world of sports does that mean?

Pure chicken$hit BS that sounds and is pathetic.

Imagining Jeb as Commander in Chief would be a disaster and reminds me of a quote by Alexander the Great...

I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep(Jeb); I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion(Trump).

I saw his commercial attacking Trump today. Jeb needs to drop out. And the big GOPe donors are threatening to back Hillary if Trump, Cruz, Carson, Santorum or Huckabee get the nomination.

Trump thinks we should figure out how to vet people coming into our country who might want to kill us... And Bush has a problem with that? Gimme a break Bush.

Perhaps he's trying to get a statue erected of himself.

“The Biggest Loser of the 2016 Campaign”

Maybe he'll even get into the Guinness Book of Records

Trump is a "Putin lover"?

So sayeth Jebediah.

Donald may be a lover, but not with Putin. Putin is no Superman and Trump knows it. Trump eventually would have to deal with Putey and other tyrants in his potential presidency...and all words spoken in this primary campaign now are part of any future Trump "art of the deal."

Think about what he actually said.

Job is too dense to understand this.

Trump will always comes out very competently, acceptably and to our satisfaction in any foreign or domestic "deal". He has a long-standing, solid, undeniable record to prove this....and he's the only candidate with credentials on the issue of dealing with friends and foes in the business world, here and overseas.

Consider Hillary "dealing" with Putin.
