Jeb Bush Comes for Donald Trump, Defends George W. Bush on CNN’s ‘State of the Union’ – WATCH

Jeb Bush coms for Donald Trump

Jeb Bush continued his crusade to bring down frontrunner Donald Trump in an appearance on State of the Union this morning. Yesterday we reported on the tweet wars Bush and Trump have been having over Trump's remarks that Jeb's brother George W. bore responsibility for the attacks on 9/11.

Jeb came after Trump again this morning:

“My brother responded to a crisis, and he did it as you would hope a president would do. He united the country, he organized our country and he kept us safe. And there's no denying that. The great majority of Americans believe that…And I don't know why he keeps bringing this up. It doesn't show that he's a serious person as it relates to being commander in chief and being the architect of a foreign policy…I mean, so next week, Mr. Trump is probably going to say that FDR was around when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. It's what you do after that matters. And that's the sign of leadership.”

We're still waiting for a reporter to confront Jeb about the Presidential Daily Brief of August 6, 2001 which Bush ignored, 36 days before the attacks. As well as the FBI report about mideast citizens with ties to terrorist groups taking flying lessons in the U.S..

Bush tweeted this video last night mocking Trump's foreign policy cred:

.@RealDonaldTrump's absurd comments again raise questions on whether he possesses the judgment to be President:https://t.co/lLr1SF1jwp

Tapper asks Jeb about that ad in a follow-up question about having Trump's finger on the nuclear codes.

“I have grave doubts, to be honest with you, and it's only because of the things he says. He's not taking the responsibility, the possibility of being president of the United States really seriously. For him, it looks as though he's an actor playing a role of the candidate for president. Not boning up on the issues, not having a broad sense of the responsibilities of what it is to be a president…He's a phenomenal personality for sure…He's mirroring people's anger and he does it very effectively.”

Jeb goes on to say that he doesn't think Trump's going to win the nomination, a statement at which Tapper balks:

“What makes you think he's not going to get the nomination? He's been leading in the polls for months. As a political reporter, I don't see any evidence that he's not going to get the nomination.”

Trump, of course, responded to Jeb's State of the Union interview by ripping him on Twitter:

Jeb Bush should stop trying to defend his brother and focus on his own shortcomings and how to fix them. Also, Rubio is hitting him hard!

Jeb, why did your brother attack and destabalize the Middle East by attacking Iraq when there were no weapons of mass destruction? Bad info?

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 18, 2015

Trump also appeared on FOX News Sunday this morning.

.@realDonaldTrump I'm not blaming anybody. But the World Trade Center came down. So when @JebBush said, we were safe, that's not safe. #FNS

— Fox News Sunday (@FoxNewsSunday) October 18, 2015

.@realDonaldTrump on 9/11 "We lost 3,000 people, it was one of the greatest – probably the greatest catastrophe ever in this country" #FNS

— Fox News Sunday (@FoxNewsSunday) October 18, 2015

.@realDonaldTrump "I'm not blaming George Bush. But I don't want @JebBush to say my brother kept us safe..9/11 was one of the worst days."
