I mean I said this myself weeks ago.

Trump clearly knows something as far as Jeb Bush is concerned. How about this. He says Jeb is the one who owes women an apology. Loving the irony?
"Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said Sunday that he would be the “exact opposite” of rival Jeb Bush (R) on women’s health because “I cherish women.” Earlier in the week, Bush said that he wasn’t sure “we need a half a billion dollars for women’s health issues.”

You have to admit: that's a pretty good policy to start with on women's issues: the opposite of Jeb. Jeb's record on women is just awful. Can it get worse than that? Consider that Jeb once signed a law as Governor-The Scarlett Letter Law-that required a woman who put her child up for adoption to president her sexual history.
It was absurd for him to say that it's a waste of money to spend on women's health. Ok so he really meant Planned Parenthood but that's a distinction with no difference when you realize how many women rely on PP for their healthcare needs-abortion is just the tip of the iceberg.
So simply doing the opposite of Jeb is a great start.
"State of the Union host Jake Tapper asked the billionaire real estate mogul about a demand by the former Florida governor that Trump apologize for seemingly suggesting that Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly had been menstruating during the Republican presidential debate. Trump instead attacked Bush, likening his remarks on women’s health to 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney’s 47 percent gaffe."
“I think it’s amazing because three days ago, he was talking so negatively about women’s health issues,” Trump said. “And I thought it was disgraceful frankly. And I think that will go down to haunt him and maybe be the same as Romney’s 47 percent, which possibly cost him the election. Jeb was very negative on women’s health and when you’re negative on women’s health, you can forget about it. I’m the exact opposite. I cherish women. I want to help women. I want to do things for women that no other candidates can do.”
At his press conference tonight Trump actually sounded a little more I don't know if 'Presidential; is the right word but he came off lighthearted and well spoken most seem to think. He acted like the frontrunner if not Presidential.
Interestingly, he said that Bernie Sanders showed real weakness being shutdown by two young women the other day.

Meanwhile Jeb blamed Hillary for ISIS when it is due to his own brother. This politico piece points out it may backfire.

If it doesn't that would be a first for Jeb's campaign who is not the candidate his brother was and believe it or not is much worse on abortion than W.

Trump did kind of hint at some issues as well. His economic positions all sound like a kind of extreme protectionism that's totally at variance with GOP party dogma. No matter. It's basically what is derisively called 'autarcky'-China is stealing all our jobs, Mexico is, even Japan which has been in a 25 year slump. But hey, who am I to criticize.?
It's not my job to discourage any GOPers from voting for him. Quite to the contrary.
