(KTVU) - Republican Presidential Candidate Jeb Bush said he would kill Hitler as a baby, if he had the chance.
He made the comments to The Huffington Post while doing an interview on his campaign bus. The remarks were in response to a recent New York Times Magazine poll which asked readers if they would kill Hitler as a baby. A majority of the respondents said they would, if they had the chance.
Bush, was having a casual conversation with reporters when he was asked about the poll and whether he would kill Hitler. “Hell yeah, I would,” he said. “You gotta step up.”
Bush then brought up the Back to the Future movie franchise, and he reminded the reporters that going back in time could set in motion unknown consequences.
