REPUBLICAN CIVIL WAR: BUSH SAYS TRUMP 'BAFFOON' A 'CLOWN' AN '***HOLE'

http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/08/gop-2016-debate-jeb-bush-donald-trump-121076.html#.VcNyqktq5SE

The half-dozen conservative senators and governors who had planned to run before Bush brought out his shock-and-awe fundraising campaign, had to laugh: They viewed Bush himself as an intruder, a political semi-retiree who sat on the sidelines for eight years while they fought Barack Obama. Now it was Bush’s turn to rage at an outsider.

“Seriously, what’s this guy’s problem?” he asked one party donor he ran into recently according to accounts provided by several sources close to Bush—and he went on to describe the publicity seeking real estate developer now surging in public polls far ahead of Bush and all the 15 others in the Republican field as “a buffoon,” “clown” and “***hole.”

I heard Fox News this morning saying they want to ask Trump a question like “You said this about Bush..etc., and let that start interaction between Bush and Trump. Trump should say, “Yes, I understand he called me a baffoon, a clown and an a**hole. Well...judge for yourselves people! I’m not the one who says illegals come here for love and common core is great, and by the way...is anyone going to tell him he needs to change his tone?”

Am waiting for the question why did you change your party affiliation during W administration.

Didn’t take me (however it took Yep to make decision about Iraq) to realize it was ??out of 20 terrorist that were from Saudi Arabia. So why were we bombing Iraq for THEM ?
(A question I’ve yet to. Hear anyone discuss )

Trump agenda: conservative on these issues which are MY top issues in 2016.

1. Illegals
2. Military
3. Veterans
4. Flat tax
5. Foreign trade (biggest factor in lack of jobs here)
6. Obamacare
7. Balanced budgets
8. Iran
9. ISIS

“the media, PC, the left, etc.,that has used our side’s civility against us while not holding themselves to that standard.”

As I wrote during the clintstone years, it is long past time for decent people to wake up and realize that when dealing with scumbags, civility is nothing but a self-imposed handicap.

Not to mention all those who like Trump (or at least like what he is saying). Keep insulting potential voters. . .that’s the ticket. . .that’s how you get all those Trump supporters or those that like what he says to vote for you.

Idiot.

It’s the Middle East. Kicking Iraq’s ass caused the Saudis to pull their horns in.

This article is nothing more than the Politico’s lame attempt to disrupt tonight’s debate.

Wait, What? I thought "they all" wanted Bush as the Designated Loser from the Pubbies this time. I am so confused.

I happened to be very skeptical of Trump. While his sounding off is performing a usefull service. He has had intimate demi-ocrat connections particularly with the Clintons.

When China opened up its manufacturing base Clinton pushed US into using them. Major retailers like Walmart had their suppliers use them. The initial benefit was costs per product went down a which led to a pseudo economic boom. Pseudo (phoney)because manufacturing and employment eventually went out the US door. Now all that time you heard nothing from Trump.

In the area of construction which is his specialty and home building. Did he open his mouth about no money down government insured mortgages ? Which broke US. BTW that also started with Clinton.

“I am only one billion short of becoming a Billionaire. But I admit to being NOT smart.”

Considering that Trump is a huge success, I suspect that he may be a lot smarter than many give him credit for being.

Most likely the Donald will open a whole can of whupass and dump it on Jebbie. Jebbie, after all, has a GIANT, utterly disqualifying conflict of interest in his disgracefully incestuous relationship with the Clintons, as shown by his giving the Witch a major award for her performance as SOS a year after the Benghazi fiascoe, the Clintons and Bushes having family foundations that are so close they share the same web page, and Jeb and the Witch sharing a huge number of the same mega bucks donors. Given that relationship, there’s simply no way Jebbie either can or will run an effective campaign against the Witch.
