Jeb Bush Response To Donald Trump’s Attack on his Wife is Unbelievably Weak
Over the weekend, businessman and flaming bag of dogcrap on the Republican Party’s porch Donald Trump tweeted and deleted an attack on Jeb Bush and his wife, Columba Bush. He quoted a tweet that said “#JebBush has to like the Mexican Illegals because of his wife,” and while Trump now says he didn’t authorize that tweet, he also says he stands by it:
“I didn’t authorize it. i don’t regret anything. it was a retweet, wasn’t me. If you look carefully, a retweet of a story, a very good story, a very strong story, good story, fair story. But do I regret — no, I don’t regret it. Look, I would say that he would, if my wife were from Mexico, I think I would have a soft spot for people from Mexico. I can understand that.”
That sounds pretty reasonable, except for the fact that Trump is saying that Jeb Bush’s affection for his wife, and concurrent soft spot for people from Mexico, is a substantive and political liability that will result in our country being overrun by Mexican rapists.
After three days of silence on Trump’s attack on his wife, Jeb Bush finally responded during a town hall in Hudson, NH Wednesday. Let the face-ripping begin…READ MORE

This won’t be popular, but… I get it.
He approaches everything with measured patience.
He took a couple days to cool off, then addressed it calmly.
An added bonus I’m sure he’s aware of is that it makes Trump look more rabid.
(Granted, it appears to be working in Trumps favor… but.. GOP)
He can’t reply with threats or anger, or else he loses his base.
Now, I don’t know if he thinks Floridian senior citizens will be enough, but at least he knows that they’re his base.
