Back in 2008, Donald Trump had some pretty nice things to say about Obama and Hillary Clinton. To celebrate the anniversary of these sentiments, Jeb Bush's team is running an ad featuring an old but telling Wolf Blitzer interview in which Trump raves, "[Obama is] doing great. I think Hillary is a great appointment. I think that some of the others are just great appointments."

Bush has ratcheted up his fight against Trump in recent weeks, talking him into a memorable tizzy during the Republican debate. Who's low energy now, huh? Jeva Lange
