Bush: ‘Absolutely’ offended by Trump’s comments on Mexicans
Washington Post ^ | July 4 2015 | Ed O'Keefe

MERRIMACK, N.H. -- Jeb Bush says he's "absolutely" personally offended by Donald Trump's recent incendiary comments about Mexico and immigrants coming from the country.

Bush, the former Florida governor whose wife is from Mexico, made his comments about Trump to reporters at the end of two Independence Day parades in the first-in-the-nation primary state.

"I don’t think he represents the Republican Party, and his views are way out of the mainstream of what Republicans think," Bush said. "No one suggests that we shouldn’t control our borders – everybody has a belief that we should control our borders. But to make these extraordinarily ugly kind of comments is not reflective of the Republican Party. Trump is wrong on this."

I’m “offended” by your sickening pandering, Jebbie

Or the “love” you falsely profess for illegals

You only love Latino votes, maid and landscaping services

Otherwise they’re on your humanity scale just below conservatives

George 1 and George 2 at least tried to fake it with their "aw shucks" good ol' conservative boys routine. Jeb doesn't even bother trying.

That's because he's the stupid Bush.

If he wasn't a Bush he'd be working at Safeway rounding up shopping carts.

Good. Having dispatched Rubio, The Donald will next take out the trickster Bush. And people said Trump was running interference for Bush. What a laugh.

Hey, Jeb, move back to Mexico and run for president there! And if Trump gets elected here, maybe you’ll be lucky and Trump won’t declare war on Mexoco.

Well, another good response is to bring up the fact that the administration released 30,000 CRIMINAL illegal aliens onto our streets, an so far they’ve only committed 120 murders! 30,000 is a number that one can’t avoid being shocked by!

Was he offended by Obamas dog whistle rhetoric referring to gang bangers?

Trump made those comments in his speech to the Maryland GOP at our Red, White and Blue Dinner last month. I guess we MD Pubbies are guilty by association.

Was Obama out of line when he said some were dangerous criminals and gang bangers?
