Wednesday at Elmhurst College in Oak Brook, IL, former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-FL) called on voters to stop rewarding politicians who used derogatory characterizations “to make themselves look better.”
Bush said, “Here is the dirty secret, politics is embedded in our culture. We are our culture. The interaction of all of us together defines our culture and our culture is more vulgar then it once was. Our culture allows people to act in ways that thirty years ago would never be allowed in politics. Our culture is more reality TV based, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that our politics is that way.”
He added, “Voters should penalize rather than reward politicians, irrespective of their party, that use racist language or call people Nazis or disparage the disabled or make fun of people in order to push someone down to make themselves look better. That should be a penalty. You should be in a penalty box rather than getting rewards for that.”
After telling a story about Trump calling him a name during the 2016 campaign, Bush continued, “The first step is to change the language around political discourse and get it back to something at your own kitchen table you could tolerate. At least in my kitchen table, I could promise you if I talked like the people I hear on television today talk, my mother would have gotten her board out and whipped my butt, which she did occasionally.”

That scene in Conan comes to mine.
To see your enemies driven before you...
“Trump should have just wiped the floor with Jeb,”
He did. Clearly Jeb’s butt still hurts from it.
Cry and whine all the way to the f*****g bank, we're long since sick of you.
Jeb Bush was a good governor. Then he contracted “dumbassshitness” disease.
Thank God the Republican voters realized this and plopped him on the ash heap of failed dumbasses.
I am ashamed that I didn’t think of that myself. Thank you, and how right you are.
Please Clap....
Time to go away, Mr. Low Energy...
Our magnificent President Trump has more class in his little finger than JEB has in his entire body!!!
Let me guess those guac bowle’s are proudly made in Mexico right?
Is that photoshopped or is he really cross eyed?
Now there is nobody left who would vote for him.
It’s a family trait.
His eminent domain obsessed son is even more cross eyed.
This man gets results. And if the Fredocons (TM Kurt Schichter) had any intellectual honesty, they would admit that he is implementing what they allegedly want.
Never heard of her.
$150 million spent in the primaries, THREE delegates won LMAO!
GIBBRERING JEB is at it again.
There are some people you just want to look at and say; “SHUT THE F#CK UP, YOU MORON”.
Ain't that the truth.
No, Yebbie, voters have to stop rewarding Deep State players posing as public servants.
Our country is in such a critical state. The Bushes might live morally & be polite(except they aren’t so classy & Christian when it comes to Trump), but look what disasters they are & not at all bothered by the reactions & behavior of Dems! It’s disgusting. Trump truly loves this country & is trying to save it.
