In reply to the discussion: Trump Is Right About 9/11 [View all]No Vested Interest
(5,167 posts)14. It's better for Dems that Trump says this about Bush/Sept 11.
Dems get clobbered in the media for bringing it up, but
when Trump speaks it, those sympathetic to him and/or Republicans have to pause
and at least listen and decide whether they want to give it credibility or not.
And Jeb!, who wanted to be his own man, is put in the position of defending GWB, whether Jeb! wants to or not.
(I like using the "!" with Jeb's name because I heard him on Colbert saying it shows excitement!
Sure it does, Jeb!, sure it does.
