There is a story about a young woman, angrily attacking Trump at one of his own rallies, accusing him of not being a friend to women. She also demanded to know if so, would she make the same money as a man and have control of her own body if he were president.
The problem here is, she does not care about any of these things, including her own body.
Meet Lauren Batchelder: JEB BUSH EMPLOYEE. No really, this is not a joke.

After the tense exchange and the icy glare she was captured shooting at Trump, everyone started Googling her by name. Not long after, searchers found a resume listing “intern at Jeb Bush for President 2016” and a Twitter feed containing pro-Bush tweets.
So lets let this sink in. She is standing there looking angrier than a nest of hornets, wanting to know if Trump is a “friend to women” and demanding equal pay for equal work, and the right to control her own body, but she works for a pro-billionaire, pro-life Republican — who literally cares not one half a sh*t about any of these things.
But wait, it gets better. The Bush camp tried to distance themselves from her, however it will be very hard seeing as she seems to be around Jeb frequently and also makes multiple references to being employed by him on Twitter above, and on the screen cap of her LinkedIn profile below.

Allie Brandenburger, a spokeswoman for Bush’s campaign, said Batchelder is not a paid staff member and attended the convention on her own. Notice how she had to use the word “paid.”
Bush’s lead spokesman Tim Miller, took it one further and denied she is even a staffer at all, right after Brandenburger had to stipulate “paid.” Too late Tim.
For what its worth, Lauren is not a Jeb staffer but the Jeb staff is amused by how sensitive Donald is to being challenged by women.

Honestly though, this all did seem just a bit too perfect. Here is this young woman with the most cold and angry glare you might ever see, standing in a huff starting at Trump for all the cameras to see. Lauren has sadly since deleted her Twitter account, and the Bush campaign is in full denial mode, but do we really believe nobody on his side had ANYTHING to do with this? Of course we don’t. Republicans use this class of staffer as disposable fodder constantly, and when they get caught they shun them and claim they don’t know them at all. Jeb will definitely have to deal with the blowback from Trump on this one, and it should make for some hilarious filth-flinging at the next Republican debate.

Jeb is done.

none of the right wing trolls had a chance anyway.
When I told you this you denied it was true.
So, what’s the big deal? She asked the same question as any intelligent woman would ask if she had the chance. Besides, nothing wrong in showing that a huuuuuuge success like Trump can’t take the heat. He should have simply thanked her for the question and answered like an adult. Crisis averted, but once again he chose to act like the victim. The rest of the potential nominees should take a page out of Jeb’s book. Put the boy on the spot until he starts answering real questions.
If Trump isn’t already doing this he will now 🙂 It’s that those specific questions asked should be a wakeup call to that young lady that Jebbie is not better, in fact worse, as he’s on record against equal pay and even birth control not just abortion.
I guess in the end, they’re all alike. The Dems are the only adults in the room.
Is “that stare” actually visible in that photo? Because it doesn’t really look like anything remarkable to me.
More obvious in the video.
Just another example of how pathetic Jeb Bush’s candidacy has become. I’m in no way a Trump fan, but Trump’s record is damaging enough that Jeb doesn’t need to set up manufactured gotcha moments.
Well I don’t think Donald will settle for THAT… I expect that he will unleash a crate of howler monkeys at JEB! next rally and well, that would be absolutely tragic.
That scenario would actually get me to watch the next Republican debate.
Like jeb likes womens rights any better. The vote against equal pay was UNANOMOUS!!!! Against it! Abortion, as in attacks on Planned Parenthood are a republican mainstay. Good grief! This women supports these attacks on women by supporting bush just as much as those supporting trump. All monkeys throwing schllt at each other. Can’t die off soon enough.
She better watch her back. Barry Seal learned the hard way you don’t cast dispersion’s on the Bush’s or you may end up dead.
They are both douche bags. This is just the most recent time Jeb got caught.
Everyone in the group seems a lunatic eager to trash our constitution. All gods fearing of course.
Republican dirty tricks? I’m shocked, absolutely shocked…
If I was a Bush supporter I would want to hurt Trump too. She tried. It is ironic however that she tried to skewer Trump on issues where Bush is no better.
It is unfathomable to rational humans ( both Democrat and Republican) how Trump can garner this much support when he has no policies of HOW he will “make America great again”
( I don’t know what “make America great again” means to Donald, but to Republicans it means get the “Muslim, socialist, Kenyan-born” black president out of the White House).
Donald just says ” I will be good to women” and ” I will negotiate good deals for the USA”, just this pablum nonsense and yet 25% of Republicans eat it up.
But Trump is not the embarrassment. What is embarrassing is what this tells us about the republican Party - that a large 25% of Republicans support this guy after he calls Mexicans rapists, says he will learn all the Muslim names and learn foreign policy later after he is president, and that he will save American jobs when Trump ties, teddy bears, etc are made in China.
And apparently beyond her ability to get that Jeb Bush is as bad for women if not worse than Trump. Trump is a bully and a cartoon, Jeb on the other hand is all to able to get his filth passed into federal law. How do they not see the disconnect in this? Jeb is actually on record against equal pay and a woman’s right to choose even birth control. How do they square this in their minds? Are they just so enamored of power they ignore reality entirely?
