Jeb! + Ted? = &*%#@#
Jeb Bush endorsed Ted Cruz today.
Okay, here’s what you do.
Walk up to people all day and tell them, “I know this woman who lives in Texas and she says that she’d vote for Donald Trump eight days a week before she’d even think about voting for Ted Cruz.”
YELL IT, DAMMIT!
Ted Cruz is the most sincerely and deeply evil person on the planet. He’s just one white cat short of being a Bond villain, y’all. And I mean that. He ain’t Cheney evil. He’s Dr. Julius No evil.
Bush is a gutless wonder.
1Trump will say anything to get attention. He does not actually have strongly held beliefs He just wants attention and money.
2Cruz has an evil demented plan and he BELIEVES the horrific things he says. It is hard to imagine someone worse than Trump, but unfortunately we do not have to do that Cruz is already here.
8 Days a Week (1997) was a charming,goofy movie about a boy’s unrequited love for his sexy neighbor girl He camps outside her house all summer and finally wins her over. Bush and Cruz are hated by puppies everywhere.
3I don’t think Jeb really supports Cruz. He just doesn’t want Donald to reach the no. of delegates needed to be the GOP nominee. If there is a divided convention, I’m sure Jeb will be ready to throw his hat in the ring as the nominee. This will blow up in the GOPs face in Cleveland.
4I love that “sincerely and deeply evil”. And he is. Trump forever over Cruz any day, any week, any month, any year, and especially this year.
5Cruzer was on the TV with Charlie Rose and Gayle King who went rough on him and his paranoid crap about police clamping down on Muslim neighborhoods in this country. Even the NYPD Commissioner et al. jumped on Cruz with both booted feet. In Cruzer’s world all Muslims everywhere live in tight neighborhoods. And when he is President that is exactly what he will do blah blah blah. He did not believe anyone when told that Muslims live in the general population in this country. The neighborhood thing is more European than American. Still did not ring any bells with the Cruzer. Where is there a pill this guy can take to regain sanity????
And Geejay, that convention in Cleveland is gonna be a doozy!
6Keep your eyes on the prize, people. Check the one-on-ones against Hillary. Both Cruz and Trump are evil in their own unique ways, but who is the weakest nominee that the R’s can send against her in the fall?
7JJ, like you, I think Cruz is evil, very evil. When friends mention how horrible Trump is, I let them know that Cruz is even worse.
AnnaBeth, I can’t agree with your statement that Cruz believes the horrible things he says. Cruz is cunningly smart and ambitious; he knows exactly what he is saying and doing and why. He has had a plan to be president since he was young and will use every trick he can think of to accomplish that goal. He is evil personified!
8Jeb!? should have kept his ignert/st00pid/(not acceptible to Momma) mouth shut. It’s a very dangerous game the GeeOhPee establishment is playing and I suspect it’s all going to come back and bite them even harder than it already has. I’m trying not to overdose on schadenfreude.
9Has Trump copyrighted the phrase “Lyin’ Ted” yet?
10And YES, Ted is EVIL. The personification thereof.
11Yet more evil by the Bush family.
12We know Ted is evil. What I want to know is what information does Trump have on Mrs. Ted that he is threatening him with exposing? As much as Rude-publicans have been disrespectful
13to FLOTUS the past eight years I think we deserve to know every little thing about the wives, too. He said, grinning evilly behind his folded hands.
Charlie Pierce published long parts of the transcript of the Washington Post interview with The Donald. After reading it, I realized half-governor Sarah Palin is much more articulate than The Donald. That is a scary thing, indeed.
14Jeb¡¿
15Drumpf is the more easily defeatable by a Dem, but here’s hoping he won’t go softly into that good night when the RKlan tries to nominate Oozy or forms a third party. Can’t wait ’til the sh*t hits the fan in Cleveland.
16Paul Ryan is already working on his acceptance speech.
17@charles r. phillips makes a good point. Dem planners should be looking at all potential nacilbupeR opponents, including the low feeders that might try to co-opt an open convention. rMoney, Eddie Munster, Jeb??, in addition to Hair Drumpf and Canadian/Cuban Citizen Raphael. Assuming the snacilbupeR actually can nominate one of the Klowns by close of business July 21, 2016.
18Crooze and Drumpf are unacceptably evil, but Lyin’ Ryan and ALEC Ksuchasheis are evil in a Sam Brownback/Koch fashion.
Unwarranted criticism of HRC is that she speaks in a ‘measured’ style. Number one the lady is a lawyer, so that is to be expected. Secondly, some of the questions she has been asked, particularly in front of Congressional committees, demand thinking before speaking. She has been privy to considerable classified information and avoids any & all answers that would breach that material. Bernie has a similar problem and also calculates his answers so as not to include classified material.
Either candidate and their support staff should respond to any snacilbupeR unwarranted criticism with “oh, so it’s better to blurt out just anything like candidate X.”
19CORRECTION: Ernst Stavro Blofeld is a fictional character and a supervillain from the James Bond series of novels and films, who was created by Ian Fleming : Blofeld has been played on screen by Donald Pleasence, Telly Savalas, Charles Gray, Max von Sydow, and Christoph Waltz, amongst others. It was initially a convention of the films not to show Blofeld’s face, only a close-up of him stroking his white blue-eyed Persian cat.
20Cobbled from Wikipedia.
@Looney Tunes
“Stroking the kitty” eh?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
21Ol Jebberino could have made great strides in re-installing himself as “the smart Bush” if he had just said, “no comment”.
22Jeb is an invertebrate, and just like his brothers, he is headed back to the primordial ooze and slime.
I can’t for the life of me figure out why people think Cruz is so smart. He strikes me as a petulant, sneering little tyrant who has made a start at a political career by asserting lies as if they were truth and tearing down the work of others.
I would like to ask Cruz the same question Christie asked the Rube: Name one consequential decision you have made that has affected other people’s lives.
The only consequential thing Cruz has done after four years in office is to engineer the third-longest shut down of the government in history over his single-minded snit-fit to eliminate funding for the Affordable Care Act. Standard and Poor’s estimates that the shut down cost the American economy $24,000,000,000. That’s 24 with a Capital B.
Tie it around his neck and drop him into a “Muslim neighborhood.”
23I’m pretty sure that Trump is not a cat person.
Though if he did have a cat it would be white.
24Jeb is just one loser supporting another loser in the hopes he can get a job somewhere–I am surprised he would pick Canadian Lying Ted who sees himself as the next King of the US rather than the next president–may be he wants the Court Jester position so he can engage in subjecting innocent families with his own version of reality–I will never forget his role in the Terry Shivo conflict–It is all so sickening.
25I agree with the person who said that Jeb is supporting Cruzz just to block Trump, who would cost the Republicans more votes and down-ballot losses. I also agree that, while I won’t try and compare evils, neither is noticeably less evil, just in different ways. Trump’s evil is out there, but people are so used to the opposition using publicity-hungry preachers, swapping white house photo ops and the introduction of unpassable bills in exchange for GOTV services that we don’t know how to handle a candidate who really believes the Seven Mountain Dominionism he’s been hearing from his father since youth, and is preached by the preachers he has supporting him. (Other candidates look for ‘big names’ but Cruz gets the little known, under the radar, true horrors like Kevin Swanson and Mike Bickel and Lou Engel, along with “America’s greatest pseudo-historian.”)
26“Ted Cruz, just one white cat short of being a Bond villain.”
I’m so stealing that!
27Yeah, go research Dominionism. Cruz isn’t the only one. I heard that DeLay was and others of that type. But what do we do about it? Try to elect a bunch more Democrats at all levels. And the ALEC folk now have this group called what, New Civil Rights Movement, as well as an organization operating at city and ccounty levels, trying to infiltrate and disrupt local governments. Vote, but watch carefully the qualifications.
28A knowledgeable friend stated that Bush’s crowning has been planned for a long, long time.
29His backing of Cruz could only seem logical if that is true. Keep Trump for his goal, go into a Contested Convention and come out crowned.
Makes sense. Any bets?
