In a new video released Friday by presidential contender and former Florida governor Jeb Bush, former First Lady Barbara Bush makes a not-so-subtle jab at one of his opponents for the GOP nomination: Donald Trump.

That comic post went up two hours after Trump’s tweet mocking Jeb for leaning on his “mommy” for help.
Former First Lady Bush famously expressed some hesitance of her own…months before her son announced, she famously said back in 2013 that “we’ve had enough Bushes”.
Acknowledging the expectations are higher on him running as the 3rd Bush to become president of the United States, Jeb stressed, “If you can’t get through the primary the right way, how are you going to be dealing with [Russian President Vladimir] Putin?” Bush is struggling in the polls and needs a strong finish in New Hampshire to keep his campaign alive.
The new video and a hand-written letter marks Barbara Bush’s first public appearance on behalf of Jeb’s campaign. However, the poll shows her losing to Jeb Bush 42-45. And you noted, and many people have remarked, that the Mike Murphy-run superPAC, which is a Jeb Bush supporting superPAC, has dumped millions against you.
“Of all the people running, he seems to be the one who can solve the problems”, Bush added.
Bush purchased a bear of brown size-12 boots after touring the store, showing them off to reporters outside the venue. During the Fox News interview, Bush challenged Trump’s record, saying the business mogul should answer why he has given money to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Democratic front-runner, and her family’s charitable organization. In the autobiography, he detailed how, after the sailing trip, George H.W. Bush agreed to endorse that campaign. “I don’t know what you’re talking about”.
Trump’s insulting comments about women and Hispanics, as well as his disparagement in July of U.S. Senator John McCain’s time as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, are signs of weakness, not strength, Bush said.

Bring him on. At this point, what does Jeb Bush have to lose? “I said it out loud?” while playing coy about his mother’s message or even if he’s seen the spot.
