Donald Trump has seized on Jeb Bush, and he's not letting go
LA Times ^ | 2/7/16 | CATHLEEN DECKER

A day after the New Hampshire debate wounded Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, it would have been logical for Donald Trump to take off after him, hoping to deliver a coup de grace against his closest competitor here.

But Trump is stuck on Jeb Bush like a dog clamping onto a bone.

-snip-

For good measure, he also mocked Bush for bringing his mother, former first lady Barbara Bush, to New Hampshire for campaign events Friday.

"Poor, poor, poor Jeb Bush, who brings out his mother because he needed help," he said, and turned to a babyish whine: "Mommy, please come walk in the snow, Mom."

If Trump had not entered the race Bush would be heading for the
nomination.

BTW, somebody should roll Barbara back to her nursing room.

Sad, isn’t it. She may have volunteered but why would he subject her to that. Give it up, Yeb!

If that happens, Jeb’s counting on the sympathy vote.

I agree. Trump has upset the applecart.
The RNC/GOP could not run their usual playbook to nominate another Designated Loser who is despised by the base of their party like usual.

I imagine old Barb likes getting old and supporting her Jeb.

Good for her.

Jeb, drop dead.

Trump knows where the real danger is, and it isn’t Cruz or Rubio.

As long as Jeb is in the race there is something fishy going on.

Yes.

That is also why Kasich, Christie, and Rubio need to stay in for a while — they split the GOP establishment votes.

Some of the Sunday morning commentators still think the GOP race will go well in to April or later. Some are even thinking it will go to the convention.

However, if Trump makes a good showing in NH and SC, he might wrap it up by the first of April.

Of course, any candidate at any time is susceptible to a “macaca” or “Marcobot” moment that could end their presidential run.

There is absolutely no reason for Trump to sink that low, none. What a despicable no class man he is.

I am not a Bush supporter but to get this nasty about someone's mother is horrible, and he owes Barbara an apology. Uncalled for, but that is just who Trump is..low class no class nasty filthy mouth boorish cad...

Agreed, since Yeb keeps saying Trump will NOT be the nominee.

Trump is a pathetic, little child. I don’t have any problem with your mother campaigning for you. I’d campaign for my son if he was running.

Why does Trump thinks it’s okay to drag out his kids but Mrs. Bush can’t come out for her son.
