Jeb Bush blasts 'abhorrent' Trump shifts on immigration (CNN Useful Idiot Alert)
CNN ^ | 8/25/2016 | Ashley Killough

Posted on 08/26/2016 7:07:24 PM PDT by usafa92

Jeb Bush hammered Donald Trump Thursday after the Republican presidential nominee appeared open to major shifts on his immigration platform -- several of which echoed the former Florida governor's during the GOP primary fight. "All the things that Donald Trump railed against, he seems to be morphing into," Bush said in a radio interview with Rita Cosby of WABC. "It's kind of disturbing."

When the two men were competing in the Republican presidential primary, Trump advocated for deporting millions of undocumented immigrants and blasted politicians like Bush who wanted to allow some to stay and seek legal status as long as they met a wide range of criteria. Now Trump is apparently signaling a major shift in his policy, saying that he's open to working with undocumented immigrants rather than deporting them all. They won't be allowed to pursue citizenship, he said in a Fox News town hall Wednesday night, and they'll have to pay taxes.

Some have noted that Trump's comments are starting to sound more in line with policies that Bush proposed -- stances that Trump used to bash him during the primaries. "I don't know what to believe about a guy who doesn't believe in things," Bush said. "His views will change based on the feedback he gets from a crowd or what he thinks he has to do. Life is too complex."

During the primary, Bush repeatedly argued that Trump's deportation idea and proposal to build a wall along the border were "unrealistic" and wouldn't come to pass. Although Trump is suggesting a shift in his deportation policy, he maintains he will still put up a wall and make Mexico pay for it. When pressed on whether he was changing his policy, Trump argues that he's still going to enforce border laws.

If Trump gets in, count on these globalist ankle biters to be all over the TV crying about everything he does.

The real disgrace is that the Bushes are family friends with these grifters.

What exactly does that say about them?

I read a couple of days ago that with families, over time, since this last 30 years of unchecked illegals, there may be as many as 80 million inside the US now.

So if Jeb thinks Trump is closer to his position now, why doesn’t he support him for coming around?

Jeb doesn’t make any sense.

Rita Cosby is the bimbo that mistakenly said that George w Bush had lost the recount,and was almost in tears when she was told the opposite.

It’s at least 30 million, probably not 80, though.

Great thing is this moron is putting a stake through the heart of the Bush dynasty. He’ll be the last, his son, nephews, etc. will never live this down.
