Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) is clearly tired of talking about rival presidential candidate Donald Trump.
In a Fox News interview on Wednesday, Bush dismissed two questions about the real-estate magnate whose controversial immigration comments have drawn reams of headlines.
Asked about Trump's success in the polls, Bush replied: "I don't know if he's having success. We'll see in the long haul."
Bush was then pressed if he felt Trump's candidacy was harming the broader Republican Party. He declined to answer.
"I've already stated my views about Donald Trump," he said.
With some light prodding, Bush said he wouldn't be drawn into a "food fight" with someone who won't win the election.
"I'm done. I'm through. I gave my views. I just think that we need to be much more hopeful and optimistic about our ideology," he continued. "We should focus on that on and not get into a food fight that only brings energy to someone who I doubt will be president and is not a constructive force for our party."

Translation: Um..................I am NOW toast thanks to Mr. Trump.
Where was some of this energy when Terri Schaivo needed him to save her life?
I’ll NEVER vote for Jeb. NEVER.
Jeb wants no food fight with Trump,
and no water or food for Terri Schiavo, either.
Hey—Hillary! does it all the time.
At least the Jebster didn’t tie-up the interviewer.
He didn’t sound snippy, all those guys sincerely believe it. I do too but I’m getting worried.
Bush 0, Trump 1
Jebbie’s staff has finally got him to shut his trap.
It won’t last.
With any luck that goes for Jeb's presidential ambitions as well.

Yeah, not responding worked so well for his brother.
Pray America is waking
Good point.
Yeah. Maybe we should start naming the dwarves. Jeb is snippie. Christie is fattie. etc
“Sit down Jeb!”
Somebody stick a fork in him, just to be sure.
You’re right for once Yeb, you are done.
Americans do not want their country turned into North Mexico
He's done? He's talked about nothing else but wetbacks for years. He doesn't know any other subject.
Jeb Bush, you are a girly mahn.
Hey, Jeb, did your brother GW send any of the $100k speech fee from the disabled vets your way???
Trump is living in the penthouses of the other candidates’ brains....
