Trump has since deleted the tweet from his account. He claims to directly send out 90 percent of his messages on @realdonaldtrump.
The 140-character message has definitely raised eyebrows in light of Trump’s previous controversial statements towards the Latino community.
Trump said about his competition: “There are too many people…” Flannigan says on the homepage. “He presses those buttons even harder”, stated Felix Sánchez, founding dad of National Hispanic Foundation for the Arts (NHFA). Bush’s wife, Columba, is Mexican and has often been critical of Trump’s hardline stance on immigration, which includes the boast that if elected he would deport at least 11 million immigrants within two years in office and build a wall between the US and Mexico. Asked to provide his best impression of Jeb Bush, Trump shot back with a quote that was viewed roughly 30,000 times within the first six hours of its upload to Vine by C-SPAN.
Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Wednesday that Donald Trump’s retweeting of racially charged imagery renders him unfit for the presidency. Trump later deleted the tweet, saying that he hadn’t seen the image.
“Adios Jeb, aka Jose”, the retweet said, alongside other memes attacking Bush.

“This was retweeted by Mr. Trump like hundreds of others”, Hope Hicks said.
