Trump has regularly mocked Bush for being a “low-energy person” but still a “nice guy,” while the former governor has responded by criticizing his immigration plan as unrealistic and insufficiently conservative…

“When you add it all up, 54 percent for the non-establishment candidates, and you look at the establishment candidates who are running there right now, and I think their whole conception of the race is off,” he added. “Their whole sense of the mood of the country is off.”
