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.

An Establishment blowhard.
Jen is a petty little man.
That was the start of his undoing right there.
I think it’s nice Jeb! was able to harness his limited energy and come out and give his opinion!
OMG! This is the biggest disgrace since that one
president proclaimed “no new taxes!” but then went
back on his word. Who was that guy?
Break out the popcorn, this next eight years (Lord willing) is going to be great fun!
I am especially looking forward to the MSM's "reporter's" coniption fits, fainting spells, heat strokes, heart palpations, outrageous writings, response and jaundiced "reporting" when Mr. Trump goes to the Southern border in order to participate in the ribbon cutting ceremony inaugurating the start of the construction of TrumpWallZilla.
Watching their heads explode the day this happens will be worth the price of admission :o)
Jeb is only in it for himself. He is a con artist. He puts on the ideology facade to fool those he is taking for a ride. He does not give a rat about anything but how much money he can make for himself. His ideology is avarice and he puts on the mask of high-mindedness so he can con those who are susceptible to his scam. He could care less about this nation and what will happen to it if Hillary Clinton wins the election. Those who care about America are the suckers.
The GOPe scumbags like Jeb, Kasich, et al. really do want Shrillarity to win in 2016. They would rather be in token minimal “opposition” for 4 years and each of the loser candidates like Yeb! hopes to emerge as the next GOP presidential candidate in 2020.
They don’t care about or think about what happens to the Supreme Court if Hillary gets to put liberals on it, they only care about keeping Trump our of the White House.
You have a great way of putting it! LOL!
I wonder how much money from his campaign he stashed into his Swiss bank accounts? You know he was in it to line his pockets. The guacamole bowls are another weakness.
They only care about the special interest money trough. These pigs know that Trump will close down the trough. I will enjoy the squealing when he wins.
The bush family are globalist losers. Who would have thought their patriotism would give way to globalism-love? They all should stick it.
I think Jeb is “Disturbed”...they have sanitariums for that
(an establishment for the medical treatment of people who are convalescing or have a chronic illness.)
We had some idiots here that were jumping the same shark....
Jeb Bush,
Who?
How do you hammer with a limp noodle?
Didn’t he claim his original stance was bad?
Which is it Little Yebbie?
(not that I believe his stance has changed)
Good log Yeb...still the same old jerk
