Jeb Bush Says He Takes Trump's Comments on Immigration Personally
Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush says he is personally offended by rival Donald Trump's recent remarks about Mexico and immigrants and calls the remarks far outside the mainstream of Republican thought.
"I don't think he represents the Republican Party, and his views are way out of the mainstream of what Republicans think," Bush told reporters after marching in Fourth of July parades in Amherst and Merrimack, New Hampshire.
"No one suggests that we shouldn't control our borders everybody has a belief that we should control our borders," he said. "But to make these extraordinarily ugly kind of comments is not reflective of the Republican Party. Trump is wrong on this."
Bush's wife was born in Mexico, and when he was asked if he took Trump's remarks personally, he responded: "Yeah, of course. Absolutely. And a lot of other people as well."

The problem with all the so called republican candidates attacking what Trump has stated is the he is saying what NEEDS TO BE SAID and those who are attacking him are too afraid to say themselves.
I am not a fan of Trump, hopefully one of the other republican candidates (Cruz for example) will follow his lead and eventually lead the pack to a decided victory come 2016. Then again, we still have the rinos to consider who will be the final pick to run.
Yea, verily!
I wish Jeb had told us which of Trump’s remarks were inaccurate.
So Hillary’s’ candidate for Veep is speechifying. I wonder if he has cleared it with her highness. What a poor joke JEB is.
STFU JEB...thank you...
So Jeb is offended?
I guess that makes H.W. the first Chinese president since he and Barbara comment on how much they loved the Chinese people when they were detailed there
