Jeb Bush argued Wednesday that he was prepared to negotiate foreign policy from the White House because he had been “commander-in-chief” of the Florida National Guard.
During a campaign rally in Beaufort, South Carolina, the former Florida governor responded to criticism from Republican presidential rival Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) that he didn’t have enough foreign policy experience to be President.
“For someone who has no experience at all to suggest I don’t, having lived overseas, having worked overseas, developing relationships with leaders overseas, being governor of the fourth largest state and being a commander-in-chief of the Florida National Guard,” Bush said. “With all due respect, Senator Rubio, your four years or five years or whatever it is as senator does not match up to my capabilities of understanding how the world works.”
TPM’s polltracker has Bush with 5.6 percent support and Rubio with 17.2.
Still better than Trump. Or Carson. Or Cruz, or Rubio…
Hey, he speaks Mexican too!
I’m almost - ALMOST - starting to feel sorry for this dumbass.
Yes, of the ones left, only Kasich is better than this clown.
What is interesting is that when he was “commander” of the National Guard, he did a lot of communications on his own private server. If he meets Hillary in the general, that issue goes away. They are the only two politicians on record that used the their own private servers for gov biz.
A real commander-In-chief would’ve lied Florida into war and invaded Georgia.
Amateur.
