Jeb needs a humor transplant. And the ability to use it well.

Yeah, I know, when pigs fly.

If Jeb! thinks his brother ā€œkept us safeā€ in spite of ignoring an impending attack that killed 3000 Americans, then Jeb! is delusional and needs not to run for President, but check into a mental hospital.

It could have been such an easy comeback: 9/11 happened on George W Bushā€™s watch.

Really-Iā€™m getting a David Gregory vibe from Jeb!-cluelessness, panic, jumping towards market tested talking points as a form of touretteā€™s syndrome, and an inability to think on his feet.

ā€œWā€ didnā€™t keep us safe. Too many died for no reason.

The politics of perpetual spin has become the politics of simple contrary-ness. Just affirm the opposite, whether true or not, but claim it loudly, brashly, and unapologetically.

Proof there are no conservative principles, except one ā€“ nothing matters.

And obviously by destabilizing the Middle East and leaving Iraq a disaster area instead of some democratic paradise and ruining the worldwide reputation of the USā€¦well here we are today with the whole incredible Middle East mess and directly impacting Europe and the US besides. Yeah, kept us safe. Right.

ā€œYou feel safe right now? I donā€™t feel so safe,ā€ Trump said.

Yes, I'm sure Trump lies awake at night fearing for his personal safety. I hear he lives in a pretty rough neighborhood.

From the above?
If you were a conservative?
You would better understand why there is such excitement over a blustering con-artist.

They been fed so many losers-- for so longā€“
that anybody with even a fleeting chance of winning will be feted as The Next Great Thing.

ā€œYou know what? As it relates to my brother, thereā€™s one thing I know for sure. He kept us safe,ā€ Bush said.

Really? I heard this quote this morning and was absolutely appalled. W was at the helm during the worst terrorist attack on American soil and this ninny says his brother ā€˜kept us safeā€™. W led us into the wrong war, just to make money for his VP, and this ninny says his brother ā€˜kept us safeā€™.

How about Jeb! goes and talks to the families of the dead in NY, CT, NJ, and PA and ask them if his brother ā€˜kept us safeā€™.

Delusional doesnā€™t begin to describe this tone-deaf statement.

ā€¦an inability to think.

FIFY

Bush was missing on foreseeable questions and foreseeable comebacks. If heā€™s not good at strategizing, he could hire it and does not even appear to have done that.

The first word that comes to my mind is ā€œdweeb.ā€ The way his glasses magnify his irises makes him look like some snot-nosed grade schooler with Trump playing the part of the bully.

ā€œMissus Morganstern, Donnie stole my lunch money!ā€ ā€œDid not!ā€ ā€œDid too!ā€ ā€œDid not!ā€ ā€œDid too!ā€

JEB misses 2nd opportunity to stab Donald while Donald, the cynosure of all beady, close-set GOP eyes, dominates the planetary system as a humbled gas giant.
Laughable punditry, again, cannot recognize what their eyes see as their producers scramble to catch droplets of honeyed dew falling from the Donaldā€™s viciously sweating head during and most especially after the debate.
Why, midway through the debate, CNN aired a Discovery channel promo where Trump was the punchline, giving the candidate airtime inside and outside the debate broadcast. Unprecedented.
And, again, no Mrs. Trump as Donaldā€™s daughter takes the highly visible candidate wife positionā€¦The wife must talk like Col. Klink.
