Accept his statement at face value. He is pledging to keep you as safe as he kept Terri Schiavo.

While Jeb may be planning to jump-start his campaign, his campaign staff is planning on their exit strategy.

1) Construct time machine.

2) Go back in time.

3) Fix whatever went wrong.

[There is something creepily infantile in this man, and especially in this presidential bid.]

That's an excellent way to put it. Look closely at the face he makes DT's way just before he goes all tippy-toes. And then the face while he tippy-toes it out. Says it all.

Can you imagine President Trump tickling palms or tongue wrestling with the king of Saudi Arabia?
