This is getting good. Bush lll calls Trump an "asshole", "a buffoon", and a "clown".






Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush has largely refrained from publicly engaging with real estate mogul Donald Trump over the course of the 2016 presidential race. But in private, the former Florida governor reportedly has some choice words for his primary rival.

Citing several anonymous sources close to Bush, Politico reported Thursday that Bush unloaded on the billionaire in a recent conversation with a GOP donor.

“Seriously, what’s this guy’s problem?” Bush reportedly told the donor, adding that he thought Trump was “a buffoon,” a “clown” and an “asshole.”

IIRC, the first two rounds were pretty interesting.

C'mon, Jeb, man up and do it to Donald's face!

Trump's last takedown of Jeb was brutal- With Jeb, Trump is not afraid to tell it like it is. He has poked the hornet's nest. Get the popcorn ready to pop!
