Jeb Bush takes aim at Donald Trump in new video

Jeb Bush, Donald Trump

Jeb Bush unveiled a new ad Wednesday morning, taking aim at Donald Trump.

The video, which was first featured on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, is dubbed “Happy New Year, Chaos Candidate,” and highlights the “five times Trump was unhinged, liberal and dishonest this year,” according to the campaign.

The 90-second video features clips of Trump during interviews and debates as a version of “Auld Lang Syne” plays in the background.

Trump has been leading in the polls for months, with a recent RealClearPolitics average of national polls showing the New York businessman ahead by 17 points. Bush, however, has been trailing in the polls, and is currently in sixth place in national polls.

Bush has taken swipes at Trump in the past. During a debate this month, Bush called Trump a chaos candidate and said “he’d be a chaos president.”

Both Trump and Bush are campaigning in South Carolina on Wednesday. Trump is scheduled to hold a campaign rally on Hilton Head Island; while Bush is scheduled to attend a meet-and-greet in Lexington, South Carolina.
