Jeb Bush To NBC's David Gregory: You Guys Are Crack And Heroin Addicts

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush downplayed 2016 speculation when closing out an interview with NBC's David Gregory during an appearance on Meet The Press that was a part of his Sunday show blitz. Bush joked with Gregory that such talk is evidence that the political press are 'crack' and 'heroin addicts.'

Just after telling Gregory that he thinks 'history will be kind' to his brother, former President George W. Bush, he was asked about who 'the hottest politician in Florida is right now.'

'Is it you or Marco Rubio? Who will we be more likely to see in the White House?' asked Gregory.

Bush laughed off the question.

'Man, you guys are crack addicts. You really are obsessed with all this politics. Marco Rubio is a great guy,' said Bush.

'I've been called a lot of things,' said Gregory.

'Okay, heroin addicts, is that better?' said Bush.

'Put aside the politics for a moment. We've got big challenges. Marco Rubio, to his credit, is working on those and he deserves a lot of credit for it. I'm very proud of him,' Bush said.
