Tweety tore Jeb and his brother a new one. Now Chris Hayes is covering it.
He did not keep anyone safe.
Jeb's silence for seconds after Tapper nailed his ass re Hillary and Obama was priceless.
As Chris says all Trump said was he was President on 9/11 so he did not keep America safe.

(12,151 posts)Bush did nothing helpful regarding 9/11. Republicans trade on this inherent claim of theirs that because they huff and puff and act belligerent, that they're great at security or national defense, or foreign policy.
But they are terrible at ALL of those things.
They not only didn't handle 9/11 well, they may have missed an opportunity to prevent, so busy were they ridiculing Bill Clinton for pursuing Bin Laden, but they literally broke the entire Middle East. ISIS is in part the fragments of the Iraqi military Bush and Cheney's lie-fueled war unleashed upon the world.
But Americans back down when someone waves the flag or the bloody shirt. Shut up and support the troops. But somehow the tragic but proportionately small attack in Benghazi is multi-year, kazillion-dollar scandal?
Trump has his uses. Laying waste to Republican dogma has been one of them.

Donald Trump is doing us a yuuuuuge favor. Been thinking this for a good while.

(20,166 posts)Let's see...9/11, an illegal invasion of Iraq, the ineptitude of responding to Hurricane Katrina, the 2008 economic collapse...
Those are just the top of the "hit parade" of shame of how Bush did anything but keep America safe.

Everyone is now getting it - he did not keep America safe - the scab is off and all we're seeing is the puss that was Bushco - JebusEnoughFuggingBushes is in deep trouble.
