And once again we wonder if ¡JEB! (the Smartest Bush®), the Crown Prince of Kennebunkport, is really ready to be the leader of Wingnuttia. Politico gives us the latest in cluelessness from that sonofaBabs (emphasis mine):

“Now, those close to his campaign say, Bush, who has taken on the mantle of front-runner, is bracing for the possibility of a presidential debate pile-on — with Trump leading the charge.

    trump is the best thing to happen to your political system – it being a corrupt pile of crap. him being a clown, maybe, and breaking the rules – when politicians stop being politicians maybe something authentic might appear no matter what lives on its head.

    We do need a Bush sitting in the chair behind the desk in the Oval office, but I prefer Hilary’s.
