Jeb Bush: 'Extraordinary sign of weakness’ for Trump to consider Putin's request to interview..
the Hill ^ | 7/18/2018 | brett samuels

Jeb Bush blasted the Trump administration on Wednesday for indicating it's considering an offer from Russian President Vladimir Putin to observe questioning of indicted Russians in exchange for allowing Russian authorities to question American citizens.

"Not dismissing this absurd request out of hand is an extraordinary sign of weakness by an American president," Bush tweeted.

At a joint press conference in Finland, Putin said he’d be willing to allow U.S. law enforcement to travel to Russia and observe the questioning of suspects implicated in special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe. In exchange, Putin said he’d want access to U.S. citizens for questioning.

Trump appeared receptive to the offer, saying at Monday's press conference that Putin had made an "incredible offer."

If the RINO’s are upset, then you are doing something right.

Standing on your tippy-toes to appear taller is a weakness in your security as a man.

How did Jeb and Neil and George make millions?
I know that Jeb took bribes from the common core book publisher, Neill involved in shady investments and George? I wonder how much he got from the Saudi’s to let the Bin Laden relatives leave the country with zero questioning of their involvement in the 9/11 attack.

George Bush the 1st brother William:
Mr. Bush drew wide attention in 2007 when he and other directors of a St. Louis-based defense contractor reaped a total of $6 million from what federal regulators called an illegal scheme by two company executives to manipulate the timing of stock option grants.

That’s right, Margaret Thatcher hailed Gorbachev’s accession, and GWB looked kindly on Putin: said he could see sincerity in Putin’s eyes. You just can’t make this stuff up.

I was hoping Trump would offer George Soros to Putin on a silver platter. Soros is the number one meddler in elections worldwide.

“Obama spoke to a crowd of more than 10,000 people at a cricket stadium in Johannesburg...”

In South Africa, Obama made this incredibly racist and one-sided speech about how awful white men were for not wanting to take in unending waves of third-worlders

It was especially amazing, since he overlooked the present black South African government and its violent attacks on illegal aliens from neighboring countries, Zimbabwe in particular. Many of the illegals have a valid fear of violence from their own government, but that doesn’t get them asylum in South Africa.

I still say that the only reason to admire G. W. Bush is that he kept Gore and Kerry out of the White House. <<

More evidence that "low energy" Jeb doesn't know what "weakness" is.

When ever you hear someone call Trump weak you know they are swamp monsters. Trump gets his power because people think he is a strong advocate for America. The swamp has tested this in focus groups. So now they are trying to reiterate that Trump is weak. Fortunately Bush, and CNN and McCain are so beyond having any influence with Trump supporters that what they say is usually the opposite of the truth.

what’s it costing the US in Secret Service, etc., for the Zeros to continue their never-ending world apology tour?

This from the brother of the man who curled up into a little ball when he was attacked.

I find Jeb! Bush’s lack of knowledge of the “Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty” astounding. His brother George W. Bush was President when this treaty was ratified by the Senate in Dec. 2001 and signed on Jan. 2002 by Secretary of State Colin Powell and Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Yurly Ushakov.
