Donald Trump Deletes Tweet About Jeb Bush’s Wife: You Like ‘Mexican Illegals’ Because of Your Wife
The Wrap ^ | July 6th, 2015 | By Jordan Chariton

Donald Trump appears to have deleted a tweet he quoted that made questionable comments about Jeb Bush and his wife.

On July 4th, Trump quoted another users tweet which claimed to know why Bush likes “Mexican illegals.”

The tweet appeared to be live for 24 hours before Trump deleted it. Bush’s wife, Columbia, is Mexican.

Bush responded to Trump’s comments about Mexican immigrants being rapists and drug lords over the weekend.

“I don’t think he represents the Republican Party, and his views are way out of the mainstream of what most Republicans think.”

In all honesty, Jeb probably does base many of his decisions regarding illegal aliens upon his wife’s experiences. Trump merely stated the obvious elephant in the room.

As for crime and disease, we have all read it and it is true. Not all, but many poor bring both into the country illegally. Diseases that have been dormant here for generations are now common. As for crime, the senseless murder of a young woman in San Francisco is more than enough evidence. There is much more crime than that one incident.

So what did Trump do that was so awful? He told the truth, bringing it to the forefront of the election news. That is about all. Good for him.

You missed the “noblesse oblige” thing about the Bushes. Old money, idle rich feel an intense loyalty to the hired help.

That's a very interesting and probably accurate point. "Noblesse oblige" of old New England blue bloods used to be about a sense of civic duty towards their own communities and people. Now it's directed towards foreign countries and people.

If you can't figure it out you must be wondering why he took it down. Normally a candidate does not attack another candidate's spouse. It's just common sense.

dear coop,

I have already known about Trump’s wife being Russian, for years.

My high school class was half ‘first generation off the boat Ukrainians’, and those girls were enough to take notice, then.

That is a BIG difference, from a draft-dodger ‘goin’ south’, marrying a mexican mamasita, who can’t shut up about making nice-nice with the invading illegal others of the wife’s heritage.

dear mamzelle,

I don’t dwell on ‘American dynasties’, because they are so last millenium, and of no use, in this current world.
