Jeb Bush said Donald Trump doesn't know 'what it is to be a president'
Two days after trading barbs with Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) kept the spat going on CNN's State of the Union. He told host Jake Tapper that he has "grave doubts" about his opponent's ability to handle the presidency:
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. Across the spectrum of foreign policy, Mr. Trump talks about things as though he's still on The Apprentice. [State of the Union]
