URL associated with Jeb Bush redirects to Donald Trump site
Regardless of the presumed lack of impact on the race, the JebBush.com episode is a black eye for the former Florida governor’s presidential campaign, which should have locked up that web address years ago.
Apparently Bush, who’s running for the Republican nomination alongside Trump and a (large) handful of other candidates, didn’t think it was worthwhile to invest in his own-name dot-com domain.
A spokeswoman for the Bush campaign said their official site has been jeb2016.com.
Bush himself, meanwhile, has a video promoting his opposition to gun control proposals backed by President Obama and former secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the wake of last week’s mass shooting in San Bernardino, Calif.
After delineating that Right to Rise, the leadership PAC, has no plans to produce anti-Trump ads, attorney Charles Spies suggested Garten study the Federal Election Commission’s website “to familiarize yourself about the differences between Leadership PACs and Super PACs”.
“I’m certainly one of those mainstream Republicans who’s deeply concerned about Donald Trump”, said Fergus Cullen, a former chairman of the New Hampshire Republican Party.
While waiting for Trump to arrive for a rally in Davenport, Iowa, on Saturday, voters who say they are still weighing their options said they would either not be swayed or be more likely to support the real estate mogul if they were to see negative ads on their televisions bashing the GOP front-runner. According to CNN, Bush could have purchased the name for 0,000 earlier along in the campaign, but chose not to. Maybe the Trump campaign, maybe a rich or well connected supporter or group of supporters, who knows. Good things happen in New Hampshire, said Bush, when primary day draws closer and voters focus on “who’s gonna sit behind the big desk” rather than “who’s fueling my frustrations”.
The ad ended with text that said: “Jeb Bush is finally making sense for the first time!”.
“It starts with recognizing that we need to raise the retirement age”, he said.
“[Trump’s] inflammatory and he makes the task for the next president of the United States a lot harder”, Bush said. Latest polls show Bush well behind Trump, Cruz and Rubio – all targets of Right to Rise USA’s latest ad flurry – as well as retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson. “I guess Trump – I don’t know if they’re ads per se, but his face is always on the news”. “They are stealing from the poor to give to foreigners who did not even ask our permission to come here”, said Le Pen at a recent event, according to the New York Times.
