Donald Trump believes the moment an Iraqi reporter thew a shoe at George W. Bush and Bush didn’t blink “may have been his best moment if you want to know the truth, that is very sad to say.”
Trump appearing on the Hugh Hewitt Show Wednesday stated that if Jorge Ramos, who interrupted Trump Tuesday “had a microphone, he would have blasted everyone out of the room” since he was “shouting so loud.”
Hugh Hewitt: Yeah what he did, it was not professional. I’ve been doing this for 25 years. It wasn’t professional, but it wasn’t professional for him and it was also very successful for you because of the way you handled it. And I was actually reminded, do you remember when the Iraqi threw the shoe at George W. Bush and he didn’t blink and he just carried on?…
Donald Trump: Yes.
Hewitt: That’s what it reminded me of and you see why?
Trump: Well that may have been his best moment if you want to know the truth, that is very sad to say. But the truth is, I didn’t think in terms of television. I just said you know, “Who is this guy that is screaming.” I don’t think… I think when you’re doing a lot of live television, you don’t necessarily think that you are on live television, but that was live all over the place. And I just thought it was inappropriate. The first thing I thought was it was really unfair because there was so many people, with good, sitting with their hands up, wanting to ask questions and this man was standing up and really shouting quite loud. Now you didn’t hear the extent of it because he did’t have a microphone. Had he had a microphone on and yet you still heard him because he was shouting so loud.
Hewitt: Yeah.
Trump: But if he had a microphone, he would have blasted everyone out of the room. So, it worked out fine. And it probably was good for him. And actually at the end, by the time we finished, I mean I did’t think he was such a bad guy. I’m glad I invited him back because I think maybe I would have been criticized if I didn’t invite him back because you know some people, you know the concept of getting him out, which people didn’t mind but I think they wanted him back. So it was an interesting evening, that I can tell you.

Yeah, Warren was a disappointment to Ike. But with Robertson, it’s obvious he’s being blackmailed. That means they got something on him. And that can only mean that Bush knew it, too.
‘________Hillary - wicked witch of the west -’
Me too!
“I’ll get YOU, my pretty, and your little DOG, too!”
I did read the whole thing. I agree conventional weapons won’t do it. But I don’t think the best planned surprise attack can take out all the Iranian sites. It will require ground troops, and a long campaign. I think that reality alone would prevent a nuke strike.
I like and respect George Bush the Christian Man, but he was a bit wishy-washy on some of his policies.
We don’t have time for sentiment anymore. Bush is a gentleman but but now we need a mean, nasty bastsrd or we will get nominee Jeb who will take a dive like Romney and McCain did.
It`s still within the realm of possibility that with new appointments by Trump or Cruz, that Roberts could still be the deciding vote on overturning Roe and a host of anti Christian stances , so Roberts may still be able to look OK in the end?
>> But I don’t think the best planned surprise attack can take out all the Iranian sites. It will require ground troops, and a long campaign <<
I don’t necessarily disagree. You may be 100% correct.
But will the Israelis, with their legendary intelligence capabilities, see it that way? Whether the answer be yes or no, it’s definitely not a wager on which I’d want to risk my own savings.
Donald Trump is an utterly contemptible fool!
At the very least, the honorable President George W. Bush kept his faith with his wife, whereas Tramp has broken his marriage covenant with many women.
Regardless of the armchair quarterbacks that try to double guess President Bush’s actions and decisions, surely one has to recognize he was a courageous and honorable MAN, in stark contrast to the lawless current administration.
So Trump is joining the Bush bashing mob. Boy that’s brave.
Well, he did play Baseball in High School.
Yes, you are correct: President George W. Bush is and was a gentleman.
But you may get what you wish for - seeing as there is already an illegitimate bastard in the White House; but I repeat myself.
And you want another one? You just might get what you deserve.
