It’s on: Jeb Bush embraces a risky fight with Donald Trump

[UCmeNdc]

Jeb Bush went on the offensive Tuesday against GOP presidential front-runner and frequent antagonist Donald Trump, releasing an attack video portraying the mogul as a closet liberal and signaling that he will attempt to bring Trump down in coming weeks.

“He attacks me every day. He attacks me every day with barbarities,” Bush said in Spanish in response to questions from reporters at a Presbyterian school here. “They’re not true. What we did today was to put out in his words to show that he’s not conservative.”

But in fully embracing a fight against Trump, Bush is embarking on a risky strategy that could further fuel Trump’s unexpected rise and complicate his own path to the nomination. Allies of the former Florida governor insist that he had no choice but to adopt a more aggressive posture, elevating his feud with Trump to the marquee contest in the GOP primary contest

1. Hope they are seated next to each other

in the debate. Throwing a punch is the only next step left.

2. Trump will destroy Bush--it's no contest.

3. Hope you're wrong...

I have no love for Bush, but Trump winning would mean a large part of this country is bigoted beyond hope.

4. It's likely a dilemma for many republicans who don't like Bush either. They don't have

much for alternatives to pick from.

5. I'm not a fan of Trump, but I also can't stand Bush. It is horrible to think that

the Bush dynasty is the best the republicans can do, and birthed from Prescott Bush who helped Hitler rise to power!

6. Oh pleeze! tRump is a donald-come-lately to this party.

He's got a couple of billion dollars and a pile of dead, bad hair. The Bush* organization controls voting machines and SCOTUS Justices. Not to mention the trove of Bush* family friends with all of their own stables of "specialists."
