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 Bush’s watch.

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

ā€œWā€ didn’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 – 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 US…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 don’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 long–
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, there’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 safe’. W led us into the wrong war, just to make money for his VP, and this ninny says his brother ā€˜kept us safe’.

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 safe’.

Delusional doesn’t begin to describe this tone-deaf statement.

…an inability to think.

FIFY

Bush was missing on foreseeable questions and foreseeable comebacks. If he’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 Donald’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 Donald’s daughter takes the highly visible candidate wife position…The wife must talk like Col. Klink.
