That’s great. What was in Jeb’s head to call in his mommy? Did his father turn him down?

It is embarrassing to have a candidate who behaves like Trump.

Bush is out of the race and yet he has no class to back off. That’s because he enjoys belittling others.

Whoever is running Bush’s ad campaign should have known that this ad makes Jeb look weak, and pathetic. It’s almost like getting a note from his mommy asking us to let little Jebby play in the sandbox or use the swing.

The ad wreaked of desperation.

If I didn’t despise the Bushes so much, I would ALMOST feel sorry for him.

We have become so crass that kicking someone when they are
down is funny?

I’m not a Bush fan, but I am ashamed that so many are running to this low class old windbag and insisting he should be our leader.

“It is embarrassing to have a candidate who behaves like Trump.

Never underestimate the GOP-e. Bush should be attacked until he’s polling in negative numbers - otherwise, if he does middling well ANYWHERE the media will be crowing 24/7 about “THE GREAT COMEBACK!.”

As far as belittling Bush goes - I have to admit I enjoy every time Trump effortlessly stomps him, since I find Bush such a repellent human being.

If Trump would just stay in this groove and stop trashing the conservative, FR would be like Heaven.

Crass? It’s called humor...
I thought it was the LIBs that took everything literal, politically correct.

His head must be chopped. He must be shot with a silver bullet. And a wooden stake driven through his heart.

Figuratively speaking.

Oh, and maybe a house dropped on him. To be sure.

Ditto.

As Ender Wiggen said, "I didn't kick him to win this fight. I kicked him to win all the other fights to come."

It's hard ball. The Democrats, and Trump, understand that this is life and death, for millions.

It’s high time to put the Bushes out to pasture. It takes quite an inflated “family ego” to think that THEY are the only ones capable of running the country. The Bush family needs to give it a rest and retire.

The reporter clearly tried to entice someone to criticize Trump, and failed. Nobody sounded “tweaked” to me. Never mind, print the narrative anyway.

Yep. Reporter flopped but still tried to push a false narrative.

A couple of thoughts:

1. Bush isn’t out of the race till he IS out of the race. That has still not happened. So, he is fair game until then.
2. There IS something desperate (and even creepy) about a grown man asking his Mother to go to bat for him. The vast majority of men (MEN) over the age of 13 intuitively understand this. Man-children do not.
3. I will agree that there are times when I wince at the things Trump says. But, unlike too many in the GOP, he is a fighter, even if (at times) he seems to take the low road. And make no mistake: we need an actual fighter to win against whoever the Dems nominate. We need someone who can fight at their level without apologizing for every little thing. Bush is not that guy—Trump is. And I think Cruz is too. [I’d be happy with either one]
