This is potentially the next President of the United States were talking about here.
Potential candidates for the biggest job in the world usually try to ensure that their PR campaign is orchestrated down to a tee, but that’s certainly not the case with Donald Trump in his efforts to become the Republican candidate for the US Presidency.
Trump has already offended Muslims and appeared to mock a disabled reporter in recent months and today, he’s been having a go at his rival for the Republican candidacy Jeb Bush in a manner that’s controversial to say the least.
Trump this afternoon shared an image that appeared to depict Bush as a homeless man outside Trump Tower in New York appealing for votes.
"@WhiteGenocideTM: @realDonaldTrump Poor Jeb. I could've sworn I saw him outside Trump Tower the other day! https://t.co/e5uLRubqla"

If that wasn’t bad enough, the image was shared tweet from an account with the handle @WhiteGenocideTM, an account with an avatar that references Adolf Hitler and has a header photo with the line ’Get the F**k Out of My Country’ in red lettering against a black background.
Understandably, people were a little p*ssed off.
