Jeb Bush Uncensored: Donald Trump Is An 'A**hole'

[DonViejo]

Source: TPM

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.”

Bush, whose wife, Columba, was born in Mexico, previously conceded to The New York Times that he took Trump's virulent attacks on immigrants crossing the U.S. border with Mexico "personally." He further accused Trump of trying to "inflame and incite and to draw attention" to his fledgling campaign.

1. So...

What I mainly take from the article is that one A-hole considers another A-hole to be an A-hole.

Okay then.

[Mira]

2. Well said, but be sure that it's going to come back to bite

Bush you know where

[Feeling the Bern]

3. I got the same idea reading it. "It takes one to know one," Jebber.

[daleanime]

30. Damn it, then I'm in trouble.....

since I think they're both A$$holes.

[Feeling the Bern]

34. I'll differentiate a little. One is an asshole, one is a whole ass. You determine which is which.

[daleanime]

36. Far too deep of a subject....

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

10. It's like some kind of asshole paradox that threatens to disrupt the anus-time continuum.nt

[JustAnotherGen]

26. n/t

[AllFieldsRequired]

29. What is sad is I really believe as bad as Trump is, he wont focus on taking away

your rights as a black person or woman.

He wont focus on pushing religion into the classroom or punishing women who happen to work for the wrong religious company.

In no way would I want Trump as president, and even as Wall Street would flourish and we would suffer under him, I think


wait....

who am I comparing him to? Bush?

Same exact thing now that I think of it.

However, Bush would be more willing to sell you out before Trump would, maybe?

So yes he is a buffoon and an ass, Jeb, but your whole family are asses and thieves and criminals.

So I have an idea, shut the hell up.

[onyourleft]

35. What I take...

...from that is a man who wants to hold the highest office in our country and represent us abroad cannot refrain from being rude and crude.

[Sunlei]

4. I guess its Walker, Trump may carry water for, he hasn't called Trump an asshole or said anything

that disrespectful to or about him.

I doubt Trump would ever back anyone who called him an asshole.

[DonViejo]

11. He's attacked Walker...

“Finally, I can attack!” Trump recently told a fired-up crowd in Iowa after a fundraiser for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker called Trump a “DumbDumb.”

“Wisconsin’s doing terribly. It’s in turmoil. The roads are a disaster because they don’t have any money to rebuild them. They’re borrowing money like crazy. They projected a $1 billion surplus, and it turns out to be a deficit of $2.2 billion. The schools are a disaster. The hospitals and education was a disaster. And he was totally in favor of Common Core!”

And in a June interview with Bloomberg Politics Trump said that Walker’s “got a lot of problems in Wisconsin. You know, Wisconsin’s got tremendous problems … the debt and the difficult problems that they have going on Wisconsin. Tremendous borrowings.”

[Sunlei]

12. Walker calling Trump a 'dumbdumb' is not an attack using words like jebbies overheard call, asshole.

[DonViejo]

14. Who said it was? I said Trump has attacked Walker, nothing more, nothing less.

[Sunlei]

18. wasn't an attack, Trump was right. Walkers a failure in his state.

[DonViejo]

20. Have it your way Sunlei, you're bound and determined to do that no matter what I

say, write or who I quote, e.g.,

“Finally, I can attack!” Trump recently told a fired-up crowd in Iowa after a fundraiser for Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker called Trump a “DumbDumb.”.

Have a fabulous day!

[Sunlei]

23. you too! Thanks for posting all the headline news stories

[Angry Dragon]

37. Walker the Kock weasel

[wordpix]

38. thank you Trump for pointing out the Snotwalker failures

Doing a great service to America and Democrats, thanks

[snooper2]

42. ROFLMAO, Now whenever I see Trumpy I'll think Dum Dum, thanks Scott

DUM DUM, You give me GUM GUM

[skepticscott]

44. Says the guy who's gone bankrupt

how many times?

[Dr Hobbitstein]

5. I like how it says "uncensored",

but they censored the title, while leaving "asshole" in the body of the text.

[cloudbase]

6. Big time!

I can't quite remember where I got that line from. . .

[Attorney in Texas]

7. So Jebush talks tough behind your back and is meek to your face (delegating his staff to respond to

Trump's offensive comments about Jebush's wife)?

[niyad]

24. welcome to du

[Attorney in Texas]

25. Thanks.

[asjr]

8. I may be wrong--I frequently am--but I believe Trump

is actually playing a game on the other Republicans. He trash talks until the others come out with trash talk and he enjoys it. I do not believe he wants to be president.

[skepticscott]

45. Do any of them really want to BE president?

Not a one of these clowns has the slightest interest in doing the actual work of governing. The job is just an avenue to greater wealth and power for them and their cronies, or for some of them, a way to impose their right-wing fundy doctrines on the whole country.

[Duval]

9. This is going to be "veddy INterestinnn"

I don't know how much we will watch, but we're up for giving it a try just for a few chuckles.

[Sunlei]

16. I know. And fox let the least popular big mouth Christie in to increase the tabloid RW clown debate

I predict the biggest viewership numbers in history for fox for that TV comedy debate.

I hope they put Trump and Christie right next to each other and close up on the sweaty face hankies for Christie cheat sheet notes. He's not as good live as Trump is, he may have to use notes to remember what to say.

[rocktivity]

13. Trump is right in this case: if the members of the Bush family are good at ANYTHING

It's recognizing assholes.

[Sunlei]

22. Even the old-times, Party Republicans like C. Powell call that bush-gang 'dangerous'

Trumps the best the Republican party has by far and he IS the best at dominating the USA media stage.

[Scarsdale]

32. Naturally!

Jeb! was raised to be an asshole, look at his brothers. Not a true, fine upstanding MAN in that group. His father, whom Jeb! calls "perfect" had one woman who travelled all over the world with him, sharing hotel rooms, Jennifer Fitzgerld. Google her. Poppy wanted to divorce Babs, until he was told no divorced man would ever be president, so he backed off. When he ran for the WH someone suggested he elect a womman as his VP. The congresswoman from Colorado, Kay Schroeder (?) said "But they STILL need a MAN on the ticket"! GHW had a reputation as a wimp. Jeb! defends his wife against the slurs, but he has had his share of other women, too. Fine upstanding citizens, those Bush crooks.

[C Moon]

15. The idiom never worked so well: "the pot calling the kettle black"

[Jester Messiah]

17. In other news, water is wet.

Trump is famous for being an asshole. It's kind of his thing.

[irisblue]

19. kind of upsetting

to know Jeb!Bush & I agree on something.

[hibbing]

21. awww.....someone interupting the annointed one?

I'm still willing to bet that Idiot Son II wins the nomination.


Peace

[Botany]

27. Just like the asshole who hired DBT to purge >50,000 blacks from voting in FL in 2000?

[beac]

28. Bush thinks Trump is an asshole because Trump says the stuff on the stump

that GOPers are only supposed to say to each other behind closed doors.

Go ahead, Jebbie. Try and convince us that Trump is the first member of your party to say hideous, racist things. Try and tell me you don't hear that stuff every damn day from your cronies and staffers.

Stop trying to use your wife as a human shield against the GOP and your abysmal record with regard to minority citizens.

[lark]

31. Said the bumbling legacy to the bombastic interloper.

[KansDem]

33. Welcome to the United States of Junior High...

Nothing like raising the level of our national discourse.

[OldRedneck]

39. ". . . buffon, . . . clown, . . . asshole . . . "

Jeb! just described the entire GOP.

[Turbineguy]

40. The debate will be

as a colleague once put it: "a hedge row of assholes".

[rurallib]

41. never seen a party where each one is fighting to be the biggest asshole

and let me tell you each one of them is putting up one terrific fight.

Based on the polls it looks like the constituency thinks Trump is the biggest asshole right now.

[Backwoodsrider]

43. everytime he says that a far right expremists head explodes

Their heads are exploding because they have bought what Trumps selling because hatred feels right for some people. However after they make their decision, based on hatred, they have to twist any additional information they hear to match up with their beliefs and sometimes the difference is so extreme and there is so much effort required to twist the facts their heads explode. Or they just give up and watch Fox news for all their news and let the talking heads twist those facts for them. FAUX news is soooo much easier....

[Jamastiene]

46. I think that is something we can all agree on.

He is still wrong about everything else, lol.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

47. Here's the funniest thing. Trump and Jeb could call each other assholes and they'd both be right.

It's MAAD.

Mutual Assured Asshole Destruction.

[Wash. state Desk Jet]

48. Hello Folks

Chris here.

Since I can't count on those Bushies saving my ass twice and since I really would rather not serve at another Bush's pleasure anyway and since I don't carry enough weight to force Bush out of the picture,the only way left is political maneuvering which happens to be an area of expertise I own by entitlement. You might say it's a different form of the rhythm method I mentioned as seen on TV but more of a cluster f-ck by trade.

Folks as you know those Bush's are members of party elite -in bed with them it could be said in a manner of speaking .
And what Bush said about My pal Trump is an expression of total ill respect completely disrespectfully articulated aimed from the dark side at a presumed dark horse who is known around the race track as The Donald.

Now the GOP by one of it's bed fellows has openly and admittedly come out disrespectfully after having been warned by the Donald what can or will happen if he is not treated with great respect.

And make no mistake there is no hug ability left in me for the Bush brothers.
And Jeb Bush may end up facing the wrath of what could seem to be a wild plow horse on the lose seeking vengeance.
And if he goes after Walker in the same secession ,that will move me up .

As to those teachers, damn the torpedoes,full speed ahead .

[valerief]

49. Takes one to know one. nt

[Wash. state Desk Jet]

50. Hello Folks

At the moment i'm tied up in the wrap as you may well know so I'm sending my picture in full battle dress .

The Donald apparently forwarded a declaration of secession clearly indicating he is fully prepared to secede the GOP because As I said he was disrespected by a member of the party elite. And since I'm in to win or strike a cozy deal to save my own ass I'll just tell you Jeb Bush owns the problem.Frankly I wouldn't mind playing 4th. or 5th. hell too or even 9th.in the bating order in a Trump administration. As the saying goes if you can't make top banana the least you can do for yourself is join the bunch.

The rest of the debate was all about me and I really socked to Paulee.

I think for the most part in it Trump pulled out the trump card and the rest is to fallow.

Damn the torpedoes folks ,full speed ahead.
