Donald Trump is not letting Americans forget that the 9/11 terrorist attacks happened under former President George W. Bush.
Trump’s relentless attacks on the issue come as he battles former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-Fla.), George W. Bush’s brother, for the GOP’s presidential nomination in 2016.
“Interesting reading re: September 11th,” he tweeted Monday afternoon, referencing a New York Times story titled “The Bush White House was Deaf to 9/11 Warnings.” “Jeb is fighting to defend a catastrophic event,” Trump said of Jeb Bush in a separate post.
“I am fighting to make sure it doesn’t happen again,” he added. "Jeb is too soft – we need tougher & sharper.”

1) George P. Bush might be a hunkalicious young Republican, but he still seems a bit creepy. So TSG wasn’t too surprised to learn that “P” was involved in a troubling 1994 incident described in this Metro-Dade Police Department report. On December 31, 1994, Bush showed up at 4 AM at the Miami home of a former girlfriend. He proceeded to break into the house via the woman’s bedroom window, and then began arguing with his ex’s father. Bush, then a Rice University student, soon fled the scene. But he returned 20 minutes later to drive his Ford Explorer across the home’s front lawn, leaving wide swaths of burned grass in his wake. Young Bush avoided arrest when the victims declined to press charges. (3 pages)

Noelle Bush, daughter of Florida’s then-governor Jeb Bush, was originally arrested for trying to fill a Xanax prescription written to someone else. Was that someone else Columba?
Excerpt from Miami Herald article below:
“In a 1999 Herald interview, both Bushes admitted that he had detached from his wife and kids during the campaign, and that one of their kids acted out with drugs.
Columba, says an insider, plummeted into depression, which has a strong genetic component and links to anxiety disorders. But she eventually rallied.”

A SHY HOMEBODY AT HEART, SHE PROMOTES ARTS, SPREADS ANTI-DRUG GOSPEL
Miami Herald, The (FL) (Published as The Miami Herald) - November 2, 2002

NOELLE’S CRISES
On the heels of that mortification, their daughter was arrested for prescription fraud. Noelle Bush, 25, tried to obtain the anti-anxiety drug Xanax. The open secret of her addiction, which the media ignored as long as it stayed in the family, couldn’t be avoided.
``She gets worried, sad and hurt about her daughter,’’ says Julio Solozano-Foppa, who produces the Ballet Folclórico de Mexico, which enjoys the Bush family’s patronage; Columba heads an educational division.
He met Columba 13 years ago, when the troupe danced in Miami, and became a close friend.
``It’s been extremely difficult for her. She has a sense of, `What can I do . . . ?’ ‘’
Bush’s torment only increased when Noelle did 10 days in jail recently after drug-treatment counselors found crack cocaine in her shoe. Talk shows and letters-to-the-editor pages thundered with criticism: Where was the unfortunate young woman’s mother when a judge ordered her hauled off in handcuffs?
Calling it a ``family matter,’’ neither of the Bushes will discuss their daughter’s problems.
Still, Bush has pushed on with her public agenda: spreading the anti-drug-abuse gospel to children and promoting the arts. She continues to be a reliable workhorse for the Bush family, a role she accepted after marrying into it in 1974: a taupe-skinned, Spanish-speaking ethnic in America’s premier WASP political dynasty (mother of ``the little brown ones,’’ as her father-in-law, then-president George H.W. Bush, once called his Florida grandchildren).
Still, it’s no secret that Columba chafes at politics. It forced a crisis in her marriage after her husband narrowly lost the governorship to Lawton Chiles in 1994.
In a 1999 Herald interview, both Bushes admitted that he had detached from his wife and kids during the campaign, and that one of their kids acted out with drugs.
Columba, says an insider, plummeted into depression, which has a strong genetic component and links to anxiety disorders. But she eventually rallied.
Columba ``will adapt to anything that has to do with Jeb,’’ according to veteran South Florida journalist and real-estate broker Beatriz Parga, a one-time close friend. What she likes least about politics, Parga says, is that ``it takes Jeb away from her.’’
Columba, adds Parga, ``likes a very simple life at home, with her telenovelas,’’ Spanish-language soap operas. ``I can bet you in Tallahassee she [watches] them.’’
Don’t mince words, tell us how you really feel.
Uh huh, I just did a look. She’s Canadian of Iraqi descent.
nearly everytime your HERO a opens HIS MOUTH... he mentions money DOESNT HE??
Im so rich..etc..etc..
aint THAT RICH!!!!
Richard Clarke was quick to the point the finger away from himself. What a disgrace he was.
I am waiting for people to start trotting out the Jersey Girls again.
gee thats not very “becinubg” of you is it...
“Trump is aiming to get more “truthers” and G.W. Bush bashers on his side”
Number one, there are not enough “truthers” out there that merits consideration as a constituency, and he already has the G.W.Bush bashers; most of us have been bashing Bush over his salivation for illegal aliens and amnesty way before Trump ever entered the scene.
Reagan’s “normal, middle class Democrats” do not like amnesty either, and they will vote for Trump.
All the other candidates are pro-amnesty, including your man Cruz.
Yes.
I agree with that statement but still think it's unfair to blame Bush for 9-11. bin Laden thrived on Clinton's watch and Clinton refused to deal with him.
I hate Cruz. He is as smarmy as Trump.
Your right, and I think when Rubio finally sees the light, he’ll run away....
You have to admit it, when Trump goes for a person he hits right where the people need to see it....
“..if he considered the attacks an inevitability what did he do..THEN..to try to stop them.???”
Well, since you evidently need some help in reasoning it out, Trump couldn’t do anything about it because he had no power to do anything about it; he did not hold any elective office.
And, if Trump could see it coming, why didn’t the Bush administration not see it coming with access to an incalculable amount of more security information than did Trump.
You mean like he did immediately after the fact? ....I doubt HE did. We still had military. At one time.
Yep—Hannity’s been embarrassing himself this afternoon.
I don't understand why anyone would want him as President.
Two Bushes = enough.
And one Clinton = too many.
who needs an elective office to post a reward for the capture of the planners before the fact??
i mean wheres the Imaginative entrepreneurial spirit THERE???
a few million would have hurt Mr ACTION???
It would have been interesting to have seen the wedding guest list.
The Trumpistas here on FR are a decidedly unfriendly bunch...fershure.
