Kerfuffle Among Republicans Over George Bush Invading Iraq
Candidates for the US presidency Jeb Bush and Donald Trump tore into each other at the 9th Republican debate over George W. Bush’s legacy in Iraq.
Republican candidates for the US presidency argued with one another Saturday evening over the legacy of George W. Bush, who invaded Iraq in 2003.
“I want to tell you. They lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction, and there were none. And they knew there were none. There were no weapons of mass destruction!” chided Donald Trump at the 9th Republican debate.
Trump was speaking about George W. Bush’s justification for invading Iraq in 2003. The real estate mogul was attacking George W. to make his brother, Jeb Bush, who was on stage in the debate, look bad.
However, unlike other debates Jeb came out looking the stronger. Trump didn’t have the audience support that he normally does. He was booed while Jeb was praised and applauded.
WYFF News in South Carolina, where the debate was held, revealed that tickets to the event were largely allocated to people associated with the Republican establishment rather than by a simple lottery as usual. This may have accounted for why there was so much resentment towards Trump.
“So here’s the deal. I’m sick and tired of Barack Obama blaming my brother for all of the problems that he’s had. And frankly, I could care less about the insults that Donald Trump gives to me. It’s blood sport for him, and he enjoys it, and I’m glad he’s happy about it. But I am sick and tired of him going after my family. My dad is the greatest man alive in my mind,” said Jeb following Trump's attack.
Yeah, like your endless drivel is mature or adult commentary.. go take you meds..
Kind of at a loss for something to post that is on topic again I see. Some things never change.
