Jeb Bush had some angry illegal Dreamers shouting at him during his speech to the Hispanic business group, but he was able to quiet them down once he assured them that he’s on their side:
DAILY MAIL – Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush pushed back against more than a dozen protesters who repeatedly heckled him Monday with chants of ‘No hope without our vote’ as he tried to address a national Hispanic business group.
The former Florida governor was forced to halt his speech before the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in Houston to remind those shouting that he supports a pathway to citizenship for children of people in the U.S. illegally, a group often called ‘DREAMers.’
‘No hope without our vote!’ the group chanted as silverware and crystal clinked around them and Bush paused his delivery.
The organization released a statement denouncing the protests, saying Bush has a record of commitment to Hispanics.In his speech, Bush said ‘a great majority of Republicans believe in immigration reform’ and slammed Trump’s immigration plan to build a border wall and deport those here illegally before allowing ‘the good ones’ to legally return.
‘We don’t need to build a wall! We don’t need to deport everybody in this country [illegally]!’ said Bush.
‘It’s not a practical conservative plan.’
‘Coming here legally should be easier than coming here illegally,’ said Bush, who added that immigration can boost the U.S. economy.
Jeb keeps falling in the polls and you’d think he’d put 2 and 2 together and figure out why. Well, he said he’s willing to lose the primary to win the general election, so looks like Jeb is well on his way to losing!
