Baby Hitler meme was born on October 23, 2015, at 2:04 p.m., when the august NY Times Magazine asked: “If you could go back and kill Hitler as a baby, would you do it?” CNN reported on Wednesday that Dr. Ben Carson was asked a variant of the question, would he perform an abortion on Hitler’s mom, thus sparing the spectacle of throttling a baby in his crib? “I too would travel back to the time of baby Hitler….” Three days later, Bush stood in a crowd of Iowa supporters and told nearby reporters, “I have enough humility to know I’ve got to get better”. “Look, you gotta step up man”.

And as Ben Carson previously said the Holocaust could have been prevented if the Jewish population had guns, Colbert noted that, “he wouldn’t kill Hitler himself – as a doctor, he swore, ‘First, do no harm”.
Bush is seen saying “I’m a huge Marco fan” and “He’s probably the most articulate conservative on the scene today” in the 30-second video that was posted Tuesday.
“We welcome Governor Bush and his team to reality”, Hogue said in a statement.
Republicans Carson and billionaire Donald Trump are riding high in public polls and besting their establishment counterparts, most of whom are struggling to gain traction in a political environment saturated with populist anger.
Nearly as soon as the NYT story dropped the Rubio campaign launched a new spot showing his mentor Bush praising the junior senator from the state of Florida. Another 30 percent said no, and 28 percent said they were unsure.
For weeks, Jeb Bush has used a odd tactic by targeting his fellow Floridian for his missed Senate votes.

Rubio campaign manager Terry Sullivan wrote in a fundraising email, referencing Bush’s previous comments that he was running for president “joyfully”, according to the Washington Post.
