After releasing a new ad attacking Donald Trump’s past liberal views, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush continues to criticize Donald Trump — now in Spanish.
“He attacks me every day. He attacks me every day with barbarities,” Bush pointed out in Spanish, accusing Trump of not being a true conservative. “He supports people like Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). He’s given money to Hillary Clinton. He was a Democrat longer than Republican. He’s said that he’s more comfortable being a Democrat. He doesn’t have a record, because he hasn’t been a person who has served like me, who served for eight years as governor. He’s not a conservative. That’s my point.”
Bush made his remarks during a town hall meeting at La Progresiva Presbyterian School in Miami and in response to questions in Spanish. The translation of Bush’s anti-Trump rhetoric in Spanish was completed by the Washington Post. After the event Bush continued speaking to Spanish-speaking reporters from Telemundo about his attacks against the billionaire candidate.
“He’s not conservative. He doesn’t have a career that you could say is conservative and beyond that, he personalizes everything,” Bush explained, in Spanish referring to Trump. “If you’re not totally in agreement with him, you’re an idiot, or stupid, or you don’t have energy or ‘blah blah blah.’ That’s what he does.”

Uh, not quite. It is a complex term, being slang, and PART of it may mean stupid. Other people look at it as being stronger than calling someone "a--hole" in English.
Jeb knows what he's doing - at least with that word. Trouble for him is that he's really not winning any new votes among the invaders, but he is really showing what a pendejo he is to those of us who actually care about this country. IOW, he is doubling down on being a pendejo.
After your comment I did a little more research and was surprised that some folks think it is not a word to be used in polite company. Is that true?
There is no doubt that Trump has pushed Bush out of his comfort zone and made him angry.
Well, I'm not a native Spanish speaker, I'm just married to one. Suffice it to say that it is NOT a polite word, and that she generally doesn't use it much in the presence of the older generation (and she doesn't suffer fools gladly, so it is used quite a lot most of the rest of the time).
Would ~el pisso ~el offoh Jebito; be too harsh?
I'm just adding a photo: "Every time Jeb speaks in Spanish, another Trump voter is born".
