You got that right.

Jeb Bush: Trump is ‘uninformed’ and ‘preying on people’s fears’

........and yet says this.
Quote:
"Because anybody is better than Hillary Clinton," Bush said. "Let me just be clear about that. But I have great doubts about Donald Trump's ability to be commander in chief. I really do. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt to see how the campaign unfolded. But if you listen to him talk, it's kind of scary, to be honest with you, because he's not a serious candidate. He doesn't talk about the issues at hand that are of national security importance for our country. To keep us safe is the first priority of the president. And he's all over the map, misinformed at best and preying on people's fears at worst."
What a wimp!

Good thing Shrub 3.0 will never see the inside of the White House unless he takes the public tour. Phuck him, his brother and the horse they rode in on.

TRUMP ÜBER ALLES!


http://finance.yahoo.com/news/ben-ca...131540851.html

Quote:
Real-estate magnate Donald Trump is the "undisputed leader" of the Republican presidential field, and his lead has grown over the past month while retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson has plummeted.

Trump is the first choice of 27% of Republican primary voters nationally, according to a new survey from Quinnipiac University out Wednesday. It's his best showing in the poll since August and a 3-point increase from last month.
As a black man I knew Carson never stood a chance.

As I see it now, the race is between Trump, Cruz, and Rubio.

I think Trump has begun a slow burnout.

Trump is now in 'real' trouble. He doubts Israel's commitment to peace.

This one should be interesting.

In previous runups to the election people leading as the Donald is with less than about 38% do not win the primary.
