Donald Trump Retweets Nazi-Draped Jeb Bush Image

[kevindavis007]

Donald Trump retweeted, and then quickly deleted, a tweet that paired Jeb Bush with Nazi images on Tuesday.


The retweet was an endorsement of a tweet that showed, among other questionable images, Jeb alongside his brother George W. Bush, father George H. W. Bush and grandfather Prescott Bush.


Beside them was a Nazi swastika with the headline, “The Bush Crime Family.”


In another image, Hispanic stereotypes are employed, including Jeb Bush wearing a sombrero while playing guitar.


A Trump campaign spokesperson told The Washington Post that the real estate mogul retweeted the offensive images by accident.


“This was retweeted by Mr. Trump like hundreds of others,” Hope Hicks said. “He did not see the accompanying image and the retweet has since been deleted.”


This isn’t the first time the Donald has retweeted offensive comments about his opponent, the former Florida governor who trails him in the presidential polls. In July, he retweeted, and then deleted, comments that suggested Bush only liked Mexicans because his wife is Mexican-American.


So far, Bush hasn’t responded to the latest controversial Trump retweet.

This was front and center on the TODAY show this morning.  I haven't seen anybody else mention it until you put this up.

Trump never does anything by accident.   He retweeted it, KNOWING it would be picked up, then deleted it so he could claim plausible deniability.

Trump is a low-life. And he will scrape the rim of the toilet bowl with his tongue if it serves his purposes.

He has to realize that nothing is deleted from Twitter..

Of course he does.

I am definitely NOT a Bush supporter by any means, but this is bordering on "childish" and certainly not the "caliber" of the GOP and for that matter GOPe.

It's the caliber of Donald Trump. Look at his goofy criticisms of Rubio's finances, of his house.  And Trump KNEW this retweet contained disparaging pics of Bush.

This is one of the myriad reasons why Donald Trump should never be President, and never will be President.

How many dupes would actually believe this happened by accident?

Look at the garbage that's come out of his mouth already.  He's not just a child.  He's a BAD child.

Please, LORD, spare us from another pre-pubescent President!

I'm not  a  Bush supporter as well, but I expect better from our side.

LOL!  I love that!  "Another pre-pubescent President." 

What's Trump's core?  How many hot women can I marry, how much money can I make, how many people can I trash?

Does the man believe in ANYTHING other than advancing his own self-interest?

Here's  the  thing , if Trump is the nominee  he will lose  and lose big .

I'd like to see his daily schedule. Does he set aside time to retweet tweets he never bothered to look at in the first place?  Who does that?

It isn't bordering on anything! It is completely childish and unbecoming of anyone who claims to want to represent all of America!

Until the pundits who are supporting him, (Rush, Levin,Savage, Coulter, and all the rest) start saying the same thing, that his childish behavior is unbecoming of a President, he will keep up with these almost daily crazy antics. His base is solid, and he knows it, so he will just continue to bully his competition.

Well, hombres, that's just too bad!

Here's  the  thing , if Trump is the nominee  he will lose  and lose big .

That could very well be the point: Trump wins the primary, neutralizes Hillary's only viable opposition slot, and goes back to his real estate empire no worse for the wear. (Or, in worst case, simply retires on his pile of money.) It's part of the reason I'm distrustful of the lock-step two-party system and the seeming demand that I and others vote for the GOP nominee regardless of who wins the primary.

That is a very real possibility.

I'm firmly convinced that has been the plan from day one.

Whatever one may think of Bill Clintoon he Is a brilliant political tactician and will do ANYTHING  to get back in power including  making it well worth the Donalds time to help him get there.

That is what a big bold poll here a few days ago indicated. Big time.

I am not a Trump supporter, but I will say that if Trump is nominated (God forbid) he will win the general election going away.  The polling today may not indicate that, but he will clobber Hitlery for the simple reason that the low info voters do not vote on the basis of ideology, but based on who they want to watch on TV for the next four years.  And Trump wins that contest hands down.

On that basis then, The Donald needs to get a good Rap number going, like his closest competitor has,  "The Motor City Doc"

We need to stop focusing on the polls.  The polls had Bevin losing the KY governor race by 6 points and he won by almost 10.  It's so bad Gallup is quitting political polls because they can actually be verified every 2 years locally, and every 4 years nationally.

Trump is hosting Saturday Night Live this weekend.  How many GOP candidates ever get to do that?
