Is Donald Trump On The Verge Of Ending Jeb Bush’s Campaign?

Jeb Bush doesn’t think that the American public blames his brother for the terrorist attacks of 9/11, which proves that he has completely lost touch with reality. But Republican frontrunner Donald Trump isn’t letting Jeb off the hook, or George W. for that matter, and he is relentlessly attacking Jeb for his idiotic statements. This is the beginning of the end for Jeb’s campaign, and that’s great news for America.

Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

The repugs in my office are losing their collective, what's-left-of-their minds.

Jeb would bring in all of Lil' Georges advisors that made a mess of the Middle East and lead to $5 a gallon for gasoline.

... then he's done us all a favour. Even if he is completely batsh*t crazy.

Keeping the Bush crime family out of the White House has to be a top priority.

So much is a stake. Especially control of the Supreme Court. I do believe that our Democratic Republic is in serious trouble and that it can only be righted if the Democrats gain not only the control of the presidency but both houses of congress. I believe that if Robert Reich's 2013 documentary was viewed by all Americans, regardless of party they would have to conclude that if drastic steps are not taken to eliminate the ungodly power of the wealthy to control elections, raise the minimum wage, raise taxes on the wealthy and pass legislation to level the playing field for works who have seen the wages stagnate while the CEO's compensation has gone through the roof and the return of labor unions then the Democracy is in dire danger of collapse. The Republicans wage a war on the working class and has convinced even a substantial segment of labor that labor unions are the villain and even that the outrageous compensation of the CEO's and Hedge Fund managers if justified.

mistakes in preparation of the defense of Pearl Harbor against attack by the Japanese. Kimmel was quickly demoted 2 stars and forced to retire in 1942. C. Rice, National Security Advisor, made mistakes in failing to act in the national defense, and that allowed Al-Qaeda to attack the Twin Towers. Bush and Rice did not have the combined smarts to see the urgency in the CIA's warnings presented to them. After the attacks, Bush did not remove Rice from government service. To his credit, he did not award her the Medal of Freedom, perhaps because even he could see that such an action would suggest that their shared mistake was not important. Besides, we can wait for a future Republican president to present Medals of Freedom to Rice, Powell and Rumsfeld -- but, if Trump is elected, those awards will be kicked down the road. As they should be.
