Ohhh so that's the plan. Have Trump make a stupid comment about Mexicans to make him the villain then have him direct that villainy towards Jeb's wife in order to push more Hispanic voters towards Jeb out of spite for Trump.

I, for one, am outraged by the things other people say that I choose to misunderstand.

I'm beginning to think Trump actually wants a Democrat president.

He might be controversial, but he's not stupid. Consequently, he must be aware that he offends a large part of the populace with the way he talks, while mucking up the Republican race. At the same time, at least at the time of the announcement of his candidacy, he had not yet done the actual paperwork to be a real candidate.

Trump deleted the tweet, but as almost everyone already knows, nothing is really ever deleted from the Internet. Jeb Bush’s wife is Mexican, but she is not illegal. The problem for Republicans remains that Trump’s racism is very popular within their party.

A new Quinnipiac University poll of Iowa caucus-goers found that 46% of them think that illegal immigrants should be forced to leave the country. Only 34% of those polled supported a path to citizenship

It's not racist to say that illegal immigrants should leave the country. E.g.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-politics/wp/2015/07/08/jeb-bush-you-can-love-your-mexican-american-wife-and-also-believe-that-you-need-to-control-the-border/?postshare=4821436400983853

Bush shrugged off the back-and-forth Wednesday night, calling Trump's comments part of "this weird little controversy that I’m not a big party to" before outlining his border security plan and reiterating that he supports a path to legal status for illegal immigrants.

"You can love the Mexican culture, you can love your Mexican-American wife and also believe that we need to control the border," Bush told the crowd. "This is a bizarre kind of idea that somehow you can have an affection for people in a different country and not think the rule of law should apply. This is ludicrous."

Donald Trump has to be working for the DNC, has to be.

I bet Trump was pushed into the ring so that even the bastard offspring of Caligula and Hitler would appear a sane choice in comparison.
