Donald Trump is going after Republican presidential rival Jeb Bush with a new campaign video about immigration.
In
the video, Bush is shown saying in a 2014 interview that illegal
immigration is "not a felony" but rather an "act of love." The video has
pictures of three men who
were in the country illegally and have been charged or convicted in
killings.
The
Trump campaign's short video, posted on Instagram, concludes with block
letters on a black screen saying: "Forget love. It's time to get
tough."
In
2014, Bush said illegal immigration is a crime for which people should
pay a price. But he said no one should be surprised that people cross
the border to seek a better
life for families they love.
Trump
has made a strict stand on immigration the cornerstone of his insurgent
campaign, while Bush has said repeatedly that a path to permanent legal
status for immigrants
in the country illegally could ignite the slow-recovering economy.
The
Bush campaign responded to the latest slap from Trump by calling
attention to the billionaire's past political donations to Senate
Democratic leader Harry Reid, New
York Sen. Charles Schumer and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton, now the leading candidate for the Democratic presidential
nomination.
"While
Donald Trump was still supporting liberal, soft-on-crime politicians,
Jeb Bush accumulated an eight-year record of cracking down on violent
criminals as governor
of Florida," Bush campaign spokeswoman Kristy Campbell said in a
statement.
