Conservatives Boo Jeb Bush

Posted by | April 12, 2014 16:09 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


Donald Trump mentioned former Florida governor and potential 2016 presidential candidate Jeb Bush at a New Hampshire conservative summit, and the crowd booed.

“You know, I heard Jeb Bush the other day,” he said, with quiet boos and angry murmurs erupting from the crowd at the mention of Bush’s name.

“And he was talking about people that come into this country illegally, they do it for love,” he continued, with the boos growing louder.

Trump added, to laughter from the crowd: “And I said, say it again I didn’t get — that’s one I’ve never heard before…I understand what he’s saying, but, you know, it’s out there.”

Bush drew considerable conservative backlash when he made the comments in a recent interview, but defended them at a Connecticut Republican Party dinner on Thursday, where he further urged “sensitivity to the immigrant experience.”

The difference between Tump and Bush is, Trump knows he’s not running and is campaigning, and Bush may very well run and is not campaigning.
