Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush tweaked Republican presidential rival Donald Trump on Thursday after the businessman pledged to support the eventual GOP nominee.
After Trump posted a tweet touting his pledge not to make a third-party run, Bush replied by including a photo with his own signature under text reading, "Voted Republican since 1972."
The barb is part of a continued push from Bush's campaign to point out that Trump has previously been registered as a Democrat and donated to Democrats.
“He was a Democrat longer than he was a Republican,” Bush said at a New Hampshire town hall last month. “He’s given more money to Democrats than Republicans.”
The former Florida governor made similar remarks in Spanish at an event in Miami on Tuesday.
“He’s not a conservative. That’s my point,” Bush told a crowd in Spanish at La Progresiva Presbyterian School.
Trump replied that Bush should “set the example by speaking English while in the United States.”

Hey Jeb. Maybe that’s part of the problem. Your loyalty should be to the American people, not the GOP. Remember what happened with loyalty to the party in 1930’s Germany.
“Has he ever been loyal to We, the People?
Has he ever been loyal to the Constitution of the United States? “
NO
Not conducive to New World Order philosophy.
Or a horrible person
I will give credit to Jeb for telling the truth. Now, how I react to that fact/admission is by looking elsewhere.
As a conservative who votes GOP when they nominate conservatives, I don’t care about Jeb’s loyalty to other GOP insiders. I care about his loyalty to conservatism, and even more important to the rule of law and the United States. He fails those tests, and I will not under any circumstances vote for him. A vote for any one of Amnesty, Obamacare, or gun grabbing in 2016 will destroy our country just as surely as voting for Hillary with all three, just a couple years more slowly.
Amazing what slime is oozing out of the GOP cracks these days since Trump shed light on the truth.
I feel bad for his father. His last political legacy as the sun sets.
...oh wait, GHWB killed the Regan revolution - F him.

Loyal to the party, huh? It sounds like the Russian characters in a Clancy novel. They were always worrying about what the Party thought.
What a clueless idiot, party over country right Jeb? This man is not fit to be president.
Moscow Show Trials
Party loyalty didn't count for much back in the Boss's day, so who's really running the GOP these days? A Central Committee? ? ?
I’d rather have a candidate who has been loyal to America. The GOPe sure hasn’t.
That`s the problem.
I am more concerned about being loyal to this country - and Jeb’s loyalty is to Mexico, not the USA.
My first thought, too.
Loyalty to the GOP is a negative in my view these days.
I don’t think that it is possible to be loyal to GOP and uphold oath to protect and defend the Constitution at the same time.
Agreed. Party loyalty my ass.
