Jeb Bush said Wednesday he disagrees with Donald Trump's call to end birthright citizenship but echoed Marco Rubio's call a day earlier to prevent abuses, which Bush described with a loaded term.
"This is a right of the 14th amendment and I just don’t think it's legitimate to say we're going to change our Constitution and that's going to solve our problem. I don’t think that's the proper thing to do," Bush said.
But appearing on Bill Bennett's radio show, Bush set off Democrats by calling for more enforcement and using the term "anchor babies."
“If there’s abuse, if people are bringing — pregnant women are coming in to have babies simply because they can do it, then there ought to be greater enforcement. That’s (the) legitimate side of this. Better enforcement so that you don’t have these, you know, ‘anchor babies’, as they’re described, coming into the country.”

Thanks to Trump, we are now talking of Anchor Babies the way we are in front of God and everybody. That is a VERY good thing.
Apparently he’s done it again.
Jeb is full of excrement. “Crackdown”?
He must be smokin’ crack.
You would have never heard this from Jeb! without Trump bringing it to the fore. Trump has caused a sea-change in the Big Business/Big Government candidates, so Jeb!, Chamber pot candidate, has to pretend he would do something about anchor babies. He wouldn’t.
More hilarity. Go Mr. Trump!
Someone PLEASE stick a fork in the last remaining Bush Presidency.
But can you trust a Bush? Read my lips NO NEW ANCHOR BABIES!
Thanks Jeb, but no sale.
Jeb! = pandering p!$$ant. Remember that.
Trump is making sure PC dies of a thousand cuts. This is just another one. Jeb’s trying to cash in on it. Cruz is the one really looking like he will benefit from all this, though.
Someone PLEASE stick a fork in the last remaining Bush Presidential run.
Yebbie and The Rube want to talk about anchor babies—That’s it.
But can you trust a Bush? Read my lips NO NEW ANCHOR BABIES!
Thing is, we’ve learned to be wary of what politicians say and look, rather, at their record. I’m shocked that Jeb is still in the room.
What a jackass. Go away Yeb!
Morning Joe and Mika on MSNBC talking about Trump right now. They are all in based on Trump’s presser last night. All of the guest pundits are going gaga over DT. Unbelievable.
Thanks to Trump were talking about it.
Jeb would do nothing but talk about. Just like all the politicians talking about building a wall for 30+ years.
Señor Jebbie, your permanent retreat from the public scene can NOT come soon enough to suit me. YOU ARE UNWANTED and, at best, tiresome.
At the beginning of the show they were doing the same thing. Mika was almost giddy. Strange days.
“Me, too!!! Me, too!”
Wow! What a visionary.
