Sadly, Trump says he regrets being 'too rough' on Jeb Bush, now says Bush is a nice man, a wonderful man-The Hill. Mr. Trump has just destroyed his entire appeal which was to hit hard and tell it straight. Backtracking and apologizing wreck that. In this case it's much worse because Jeb Bush is a vicious human being

6/19/15, "Trump regrets being 'too rough' on Jeb Bush," The Hill, Mark Hensch

"Trump says he now regrets swinging so hard at Bush, a 2016 White House rival, during his own campaign kickoff Tuesday from New York City’s Trump Tower.
...................
I actually saw myself a couple of days ago, and I said, ‘That’s, that’s too rough,’” Trump told host Jake Tapper in an interview airing Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
....................
“I really think he’s a nice man; I think he’s a wonderful man,” he said.
........................
I actually felt bad because I hit him very hard one day like two days ago, three days ago, and I said, ‘Why am I hitting him so hard?’”
.........................
But even though he has admiration for Bush, Trump still does not think the former Florida governor qualifies for the White House.
.................
He said battling the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) was one area where he would outperform Bush if elected to the executive mansion next year.
.........................
I don’t know if I want him negotiating with ISIS, Trump said of Bush.
.....................
“I think Trump will do a lot better,” he told Tapper, adding that the Bush campaign takes him “very seriously.” “You think so, too, but you’re not going to say it.”
.........................
Trump entered the GOP 2016 field one day after Bush, who launched his campaign Monday in Miami.
......................
The New York business mogul sharply criticized Bush during his own announcement Tuesday.
.....................
“I don’t see how he can get the nomination,” Trump said, according to CNN.
............................
He’s weak on immigration, and he supports Common Core, he added. “How the hell can you vote for this guy?”
......................
Trump also touted aggressive jobs creation as part of his political platform during his speech Tuesday.
........................
“I will be the greatest jobs president God ever created, I can tell you that,” he said. Trump previously teased a 2012 presidential campaign before deciding against it.
.......................
He has vowed that his run next election cycle will “make America great again.”"

"Trump's appeal is because he hits hard and tells it straight.

Backtracking and apologizing is going to kill that appeal.

"The Bush family is a vicious anti-conservative power-hungry clan, and treating Jeb as just another candidate is naive and embarrassing."...

6/17/15, "The Big Picture on Jeb," by

"Conservatives must look at the big picture on Jeb Bush. The Bush family is a vicious anti-conservative power-hungry clan, and treating Jeb as just another candidate is naive and embarrassing....
..................
Let’s understand what Jeb Bush represents, and let’s get past the naive, or perhaps fake shallowness disguised as, “being a good Christian,” about, “people on our side.”

Jeb ain’t on our side.

Jeb’s been running for president since at least 2011.  His team sent letters to all the Republican legislators who won in 2012 in battleground states.  His book came out signaling a complete shift in immigration dealings at the same time his team, (Sally Bradshaw) and allies like the Barbours who would later accuse conservatives of racism in Mississippi, and the rest co-authored the, “autopsy report” which slapped down conservatives as, “talking to themselves” and used the same verbiage as the book, especially the, “America looks different” part. All the cross-over pundits like Kristol and Hume and others on Fox News began, the very day after the massive loss of the presidency in 2012, saying Republicans needed to pass “comprehensive immigration reform.” matching the tone and singular focus of John Ellis Bush’s “fundamental immigration reform.” In May of 2013, the data of the Republican Party was, as outlined in the autopsy report, handed over to a team affiliated with Karl Rove. At the same time, and following the outlandish changes of policy at the national Party level, local Republican Parties were cutting out conservatives, methodically, continuously, substantially.

The Republican Party is one, big lock-step totalitarian machine who, for the past four or five years have been gearing up to put Jeb Bush in the White House. Party rules all over the nation have been tightened up, if you are a delegate and you plan to try to defeat Bush, you’ll never make it to the convention, or at least, not enough of you.

Conservatives must understand that even if you are in the Republican Party, the Party is your enemy.  I’m not saying leave, I’m just saying realize that they, and you know who I mean, aren’t going to help your “conservative purity” see the light of day.

Now, saying positive, conservative things about Jebby, who is going to a gathering he thinks will burnish his conservative credentials, even though he insists he doesn’t need conservative votes, (the same way we gotta continue to hear he was a conservative governor, which he was not) is at the very least phony, and possibly damaging to the nation at large.

Hey, I’m not saying Erickson has that much clout, I’m just saying what a bunch of baloney.
..............
It’s not realistic, nor is it worth any conservative’s time to listen to what Jeb apologists have to say. He doesn’t want our votes, let him shrivel on the vine without them. He won’t get conservative Democrats, he doesn’t want them either, he is destined to fail as long as we crush him in the primaries. This appeasement crap serves the opposite purpose.

Now is not the time for conservatives to compartmentalize the seemingly, “random” happenings in the Party in recent years. It’s all connected, it’s all Jeb, who is nothing more than another narcissistic and condescending country club Repubican nobody can stand.

And here is Erickson giving Jeb vomit-inducing advice “going forward” as a “spokesman” of conservatives.  It has to stop."

The irritable children must shut the hell up-Codevilla:

"No prominent Republican challenged the ruling class’s continued claim of superior insight, nor its denigration of the American people as irritable children who must learn their place."...
 
July-August 2010, "America’s Ruling Class — And the Perils of Revolution," by
 
"The only serious opposition to this arrogant Ruling Party is coming not from feckless Republicans but from what might be called the Country Party — and its vision is revolutionary."...

Comment: Yet again I was stupid enough to think Trump was the person he claimed to be, that maybe our country has a chance. Then he folds at the slightest breeze from the Establishment. The Bush family viciously fought against and mocked Ronald Reagan. Reagan then named George Bush his VP. Had Reagan not made that inexplicable mistake, the so-called Bush dynasty wouldn't have happened. I wasn't a Reagan fan, didn't vote for him, but obviously the Bush crowd is much worse. Reagan's obsession with abortion made me sick.
