Jeb Bush Has Genetic Foot-in-Mouth Problem

Jeb Bush established his inheritance of the family trait earlier this year, with his kick-off foreign policy speech. He confused Iraq for Iran, said Islamic State had 200,000 fighters instead of 20,000, and referred to the Islamic State leader as ‘the guy that’s the supreme leader, whatever his new title is, head of the caliphate.’ He said immigration should be ‘a catalytic converter for sustained economic growth.’ … But Jeb Bush’s slips tend to be different from those of his kin. His are more Freudian, involving accidental truths.

— Dana Millbank in the Washington Post.
