Jeb Bush called Donald Trump a ‘germophobe.’ About that …
Washington Post ^ | 9/2/15 | Amber Phillips

Posted on 09/02/2015 8:49:43 AM PDT by jimbo123

The Washington Post's Ed O'Keefe and Sean Sullivan report that Jeb Bush has finally said "game on" to Donald Trump.

On Tuesday, the former Florida governor released a video attacking Trump as a closet liberal, and while in Miami, he went off in Spanish to reporters about Trump's "barbarities."

Then, on Wednesday, he posted a quiz on his Web site that accused the GOP front-runner of being ... a "germophobe":

In 2013, Owen described how George W. Bush would squirt Purell on his hands after most shakes. He even passed the tip on to President Obama (but not before being called a germaphobe, among other things, for sanitizing his hands after shaking Obama's).

It's a risky move for any politician to go after Trump, whose magic coat of armor seems to only reflect an opponent's attack back onto the opponent. And that goes double when your own former-president brother has faced the same accusations.

The biggest germaphobe is his own brother Barack Obama.

Trump knows what he's doing with Jeb. Jeb is gaff-prone anyway and the more Trump gets him to spew and spout, the more gaffs Jeb will make.

Jeb is making himself look silly and petty.

Well....certainly no one would dare think that Yebito is a germophobe. I bet he got over Montezuma’s Revenge and became immune a long time ago.

I’m thinking some Trump Ju Jitsu is on the way — now he can back off Jeb and let his insults make him look like a desperate, childish idiot.

When you shake 100 hands at every whistle-stop the risks become obvious.

Team Jeburrito have just said they’re going to go after Trump for the next 2 weeks prior to the debate.

And we wonder why Conservatives wear a big smile when they shake hands with Mr. Bush.
And, Mothers, remind your children not to put something in their hand when they don’t know where its been.

Trump shouldn’t even bother responding to a third-tier candidate.

I have no problem with a person being cautious these days about germs. Especially after open border illegal panderers have allowed people with many diseases to enter this country and be moved all over the place to infect Americans.

This took two seconds to find.

Who is advising JEB, Rove?

Yep. We now have diseases never even heard of in the US before, and some of the carriers will be sitting next to American children in crowded classrooms.

Jeb! going this the wrong way. This kind of attacks makes him look silly.

Hey, Jeb! why don’t you tell us WHY we should give you 5 minutes of our lives? But first you’ll have to overcome my prejudice of your self-identifying as a Hispanic, though.
