The public fight between GOP frontrunner Donald Trump and Jeb Bush has intensified this week after repeated attacks by Trump on Jeb Bush’s record.
Trump’s attacks culminated in a video release earlier this week which features mugshots of illegal alien criminals along with a highlight of Jeb Bush’s remark concerning illegal immigration being “an act of love.”
The Bush campaign turned a sharp corner, having ignored Trump thus far, by releasing its own video this week accusing Trump of being a “closet liberal” and promising to cut him down to size.
It’s a big gamble on Bush’s part both because Trump’s operation has notable marketing prowess and because it risks painting Trump as a victim of the political establishment, which could likely earn him even more support.
