Why is there no coverage of JEB!'s commnet on Flint: "too much regulation"

We have articles today, this is happening all over the U.S. Sebring, OH, Flint, MI, Chicago, IL due to deregulation.

So why are his comments not being covered? They are so damning.

But, he doesn't. I don't even think Donald Chump is going to get it now. I might be able to laugh at the Chumps now that they are losing it as far as the nomination goes.

Now if there is a way to bring up that JEB!'s position is the norm for Republicans which I believe it is, then we gotta hang this statement on all of them not just JEB!.

if Big Money and connections somehow bring him to prominence (counting nothing out yet), it'll be rehashed big time.

...all the Republicans broke with the 68% majority of Americans who support it.

Christie had the balls to look in the camera and say, "America, You're Wrong. The millionaires will leave America and it would be a disaster."

There has been literally zero coverage as far as I can tell of that damning exchange, the subtext of which was go to hell America-at-large -- we know better than you.
