“This last week I saw something that was breathtaking, a candidate — a former secretary of state who was campaigning in Massachusetts — where she said that, ‘Don’t let them tell you that businesses create jobs,’” Bush said, according to The Associated Press.
The crowd booed, and he went on, “Well, the problem in America today is that not enough jobs are being created [but] they are created by business.”
It’s one of the rare times that Bush, who has said he’s considering a presidential run of his own in 2016, has engaged in hitting Clinton, the dominant front-runner for the Democratic nomination if she chooses to run for president a second time.
Bush and Clinton have appeared together twice in the past two years, at an education conference and at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.
Both Clinton and Bush have said they’ll decide whether there will be a reprisal of a Clinton-Bush campaign — Bill Clinton beat Jeb Bush’s father in 1992 — in the coming months.
