Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump is borrowing a move from George H.W. Bush’s playbook to attack his son Jeb as being weak on illegal immigration.
In an ad that has drawn comparisons to the elder Bush’s Willie Horton ad, Trump released a video on Instagram Monday that played Jeb Bush’s speech about illegal aliens committing an “act of love” by coming to America, contrasted with pictures of illegals who have committed horrid crimes.

Trump does this to drive away ¿Yebs? donors. No money = no campaign.
Its an excellent strategy move. Hypocrisy abounds.
It was Algore that first used Willie Horton on Dukakis during the Democratic Primaries.
Whatever.
Well, I liked George, but I cannot tolerate Jeb.
However, this is borderline bullying. Trump clearly has made inroads with reducing Jeb’s numbers. While he is going down, let’s give him a little kick. Not cool.
Idiotic reporter. The first person to use Willie Horton was Al Gore in the 1988 New York primary.
If Trump REALLY wants to upset the taco wagon he should hang Terri Schiavo’s murder around Jebbie’s neck.
Depending how far down in the gutter Jeb and the GOPe want to go in digging up slime to sling at Trump; Trump might actually have grounds to drag that one out, later.
The question DOES come to mind as to how the anti-Trump media blitz that is rumored to be coming soon, fits in with the concept of fair treatment from them?
Trump knows how to fight. I hope he kicks Jeb’s @$$, and then I hope Cruz defeats him in the primaries.IOW, Cruz is a wimp not capable of winning or fighting his battles without Trump doing it for him...
This is what you want for a President?
We should stop looking for lone idols. That isn’t how the Founding Fathers worked. They were a team.
If Cruz’s wisdom and Trump’s moxie can combine to the good, why complain.
Yes, it was Al Gore that invented the Willie Horton attack. But then consider:

Worthless clickbait blogs are rarely a source of anything intelligent, cogent or accurate.
Trump is more than capable of picking his own team...Cruz would not be my first choice.
Huh... the bible calls that nonsense.
Nice try concern troll.
I can’t agree with you, we have to have clear victories and you don’t let up until your opponent is defeated. Heb has not dropped out and so is fair game. Letting up is the same strategy that leads to the mess we have in the Middle East now. Don’t fight unless you mean to win.
Letting up in the Middle East and overplaying your hand in a civilized contest, I feel should be treated differently.
If my choice were Trump, I wouldn’t want him to continue this. Let Jeb sink into his own level...and he will.
The Middle East - forget optics, fight and destroy, then fight and demolish. No mercy there.
About what am I supposed to be concerned?
bttt
Something tells me that Trump, UNLIKE EVERY OTHER CANDIDATE since 1988, WILL NOT give the liberals veto power over how he delivers his message.
If Bus is good with Open Borders, Amnesty, and Sanctuary Cities, THEN BUSH needs to explain why killings like Katie’s are acceptable.
I see you have never been in a real fight, a fight where the difference between winning and losing is life or death.
I am a firm believer in once they are down; you kick them in the head (as hard as you can swing) with a steel toed boot, then crush their throat and stomp their face with your boot heel.
