The long-running feud between Jeb Bush and Donald Trump escalated yet again Saturday, with the former Florida governor releasing a two-minute video on social media mocking the billionaire's fitness to be commander-in-chief.

*snip*

The clip is the latest salvo in the Bush-Trump rivalry, which has often been marked by bitter and personal exchanges between the two prominent Republican presidential candidates. On Friday, Trump suggested Bush's brother, former President George W. Bush, shared in the blame for the 9/11 terrorist attacks because they occurred during his presidency.

Saturday's round centered on a video set to the tune of circus music that highlights comments from Trump that have called into question his grasp of military matters. Many of Trump's most controversial moments are presented, including his questioning of John McCain's status as a war hero to his inability to name prominent terrorists.

The clip also points out that Trump -- who is shown in the clip claiming that "there's nobody bigger or better at the military than I am" -- received deferments to avoid military service during the Vietnam War. There's also a snippet of a 2007 interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer in which he says Hillary Clinton "would do a good job" negotiating a nuclear deal with Iran.

What Yeb doesn't seem to get is..."you can't stump the Trump."

Trump is a genius at creating these squabbles and then resolving them to his benefit.

I don't get it. What does Jeb have to offer regarding the military?

Jeb comes out swinging! He is a fighter!

[Fresh Wind]

So, what are Jebbie’s qualifications to lead the military?

Poor, Jeb!

[fish hawk]

LOL give Trump the kudos for this. he said Jeb was boring, no wind in his sails, lackluster etc. I think maybe that woke Jeb up from his trans.

[I Hired Craig Livingstone]

His trans? Uh-oh...

I’m not clicking a CNN link. Was The Joyful Terrapin rising up-and-down on his tortoise toes as he ridiculed Trump?

[DoughtyOne]

Yep, I agree.

The art work on that Peso is kind of misleading. Everyone was certain those were illegals shown on the face of it. No, those were the Bush family members rushing to help the illegals avoid being caught.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Lets see, how many years was Jeb in the military? At least Trump had 5 years in Military school so he will know how to salute properly coming off the plane.

Trump has literally taken over Jebby’s mind. Where is little Jebby’s “Common Core”?
