Trump Mocks Jeb For Getting Eric Cantor's Endorsement: He's A Loser!

Republican presidential candidate and frontrunner Donald Trump remains unimpressed by members of the GOP establishment.

After former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) announced his endorsement of Trump's rival, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, the real estate mogul did what he does best: Remind everyone that Cantor was a loser. Formerly one of the most powerful Republicans in the nation, Cantor stunningly lost his primary race in 2014 to a political novice and college professor, Dave Brat.

Here's Cantor's endorsement:

Eric Cantor
@EricCantor

.@JebBush is a true leader w/ a long-term vision for our country and the know how to implement it– not just talk about it. I'm #AllInForJeb.

And Trump's response:

Donald J. Trump ✔
@realDonaldTrump

Who wants the endorsement of a guy (@EricCantor) who lost in perhaps the greatest upset in the history of Congress?

Trump does and says a lot of dumb things, but telling the truth about Cantor and jeb! are not among them.

I love how he is ripping the repug party apart from the inside.

But what I think is funny is the fact that tRump can't resist being an asshole to the other GOP candidates. It was just an observation but I certainly don't have any problem with it.
