Republican Civil War: Jeb Bush Calls Donald Trump a "Baffoon", "Clown" and an "$#@!"

The half-dozen conservative senators and governors who had planned to run before Bush brought out his shock-and-awe fundraising campaign, had to laugh: They viewed Bush himself as an intruder, a political semi-retiree who sat on the sidelines for eight years while they fought Barack Obama. Now it was Bush’s turn to rage at an outsider.

“Seriously, what’s this guy’s problem?” he asked one party donor he ran into recently according to accounts provided by several sources close to Bush—and he went on to describe the publicity seeking real estate developer now surging in public polls far ahead of Bush and all the 15 others in the Republican field as “a buffoon,” “clown” and “$#@!.”

sounds like someone else I know.

Anything to avoid talking about what ails this nation today...

[Ronin Truth]

Trump calls Jeb a Bush.

[Dianne]

How Presidential lmao

[enhanced_deficit]

Credit must go to Bush that he has never used these terms for Obama.

[Suzanimal]

For once I agree with Jeb! Think he's trying to play Trump's game but doesn't have the balls to come right out and say it?

Jeb Bush called Donald Trump an “ass---” in a private conversation with a donor, according to a new report.

Bush also insulted the billionaire by saying he is a “buffoon” and a “clown,” according to Politico.

The former Florida governor will be standing next to the business mogul when the two Republican candidates face off at Thursday night's debate with eight other GOP White House hopefuls.
Trump is the GOP frontrunner, as several national polls show him leading Bush. His campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

You know what Trump does to people that disrespect him? This is going to end in tears

Trump's abrasiveness is working.

Obamacare.
Common Core.
Immigration.
CoC and Wall Street Connections

He's going to slam it over John Ellis' head repeatedly.

Just made front of Drudge. Drudge is trying to lure out Jeb.

Did the media just pick the opponents for the "main event?" Be interesting to see who get's the most air time tonight.

Good. I hope Bush calls Trump an $#@! to his face tonight on live TV.

[AuH20]

Poor Jeb didn't like when Trump stated that he is 100% wholly owned by lobbyists in Manhattan. That had to melt some eyebrows.

[Ronin Truth]

Reasons to like Trump count: +1.

[AuH20]

I expect a more restrained, pensive Trump at the beginning. Remember how softspoken he was?

[hells_unicorn]

This is going to turn into a veritable Battle Royal, and hopefully Bush and Trump will tear each other apart and leave the field open for Rand to dominate, though I am hopeful Rand is able to grab some air-time and show up Walker and a few of the others.

[dannno]

Trump puts on his best troll face

[dannno]

bump

[rg17]

This is going to be good tonight!

[phill4paul]

This "tiff" is going to keep the camera on center stage. It'll keep the eye's off the fringes of the podium. It will surely be interesting to see how much speaking time and face time the individual candidates get this evening.

[AuH20]

Someone wants a shot at the champ? Bold MFer who'll take home the prom queen. When they say that confidence is everything, it's everything. If Rand had Trump's delusional ego, he might be winning this thing.

This debate is going to draw one of the largest viewing audiences ever for any political debate, and its because of the excitement that Trump is bringing to it. Some TV correspondents are absolutely giddy over the show about to air. A CNN correspondent related it to the excitement before the first day of school.

All Trump will need to do is be Trump and allow those marching to the 'destroy Trump' drums to self-destruct. Trumps message will be the state of the union. If his opponents' message is Trump, then the public will see a leader and a problem solver vs politicians ganging up on the top dog. Rand can do well simply by staying above the fray.

Never attack down. Perception is everything. Policy, policy, policy. If there is any exchange then Rand needs to bring up his votes and ask how many votes has Trump cast and for what purposes did he cast them.

This. He needs to stay out of the sandbox and do everything he can to turn a few precious moments of that debate into an adult conversation.

And in this field, for Rand Paul to attack anyone at all is for him to 'attack down'. Just because the dittoheads ask only, 'How high?' when Fox tells them to jump for the Candidate of the Month Club Selection does not mean that any of them are half the man Rand Paul is.
