Donald Trump has really perfected the art of Twitter, using it as a platform to peddle right-wing conspiracy theories about everything from climate change to President Obama’s birth certificate.
In a recent Twitter storm, Trump retweeted followers who attacked Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly — who faced heated attacks from the Trump campaign for her role as a moderator in the opening GOP presidential debate — as a “bimbo” and went after Jeb Bush for knowing how to “speak Mexican.”
Trump, who recently posted a video that used comments from Bush’s mother to mock the candidate and retweeted a follower who wrote that Bush “has to like the Mexican Illegals because of his wife,” also tweeted that the former governor is “ashamed” of his family:
"@YoungYoung54: @JeriHyatt @megynkelly @JebBush So true. Jeb Bush is crazy, who cares that he speaks Mexican, this is America, English !!"

Jeb Bush never uses his last name on advertising, signage, materials etc. Is he ashamed of the name BUSH? A pretty sad situation. Go Jeb!

Jeb Bush just talked about my border proposal to build a "fence." It's not a fence, Jeb, it's a WALL, and there's a BIG difference!
