1. Was that before or after Jeb's comments were reported in the media that

he 'took Trump's position personally'?

5. He took it personally?

"Here, Jeb. Let me make a racist comment about your wife, also implying she rules the roost and has you henpecked, maybe because she's one of those overbearing Latina gals. Nothing personal, Jeb, old buddy. But if you're going to get all upset and be a baby about it, I guess I'll delete the comment."

6. Well, that's my question.

Did Trump say that about Jeb's wife FIRST, or did Jeb say he took personal offense to the general comments about Mexicans, thus making it about his wife himself, AFTER which Trump then made a specific comment about Jeb's wife?

Neither says anything good about Trump, but one of those possibilities shows Jeb being more willing to use his wife for political advantage than the other.

2. The fact that Trump deleted that tweet does not help

3. What happens on the Internet stays on the Internet.

Forever.

Delete all you want, dickwad, it's out there.

4. He probably was planning to use this insult at a better time

He must have pre-pre-ejaculated on this one. Maybe no one noticed so he can go ahead and use it later, like on stage at the debates.

He certainly didn't delete it because he thinks he went too far. It has to be because the impact of it just wouldn't go far enough right now. In his twisted itty bitty mind it wouldn't have the big splash impact he wants. It would be peaking too soon, even For the Donald.

Who says The Donald doesn't have a far reaching strategy?

7. Poof!

And Jebthro's poll numbers begin their long, slow, tepid climb.
