MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace said that she had previously told then-presidential candidate Jeb Bush that he should have punched President Donald Trump in the face after one of the primary debates in 2016.
During an episode of Wallaces show, Deadline: White House, on MSNBC on Thursday, she was discussing Bushs feud with Trump. Bush and Trump used to have heated debates in 2015 and 2016 before the former governor of Florida dropped out of the race. Former Republican National Committee Chair Michael Steele was discussing one instance when Bush called out Trump during a Republican debate.
"Let me tell you, that Jeb Bush moment on that stage, if any of the Republican on that stage backed Jeb Bush up when he went after Trump and called him out, it would be a very different ...," Steele said before Wallace interjected.
I told Jeb Bush after the debate that I thought he should have punched him in the face," Wallace said. "Even if you lost, he insulted your wife, he came down the escalator and called Mexicans rapists and murderers he said, What do you think I should have done? I said, I think you should have punched him in the face and then gotten out of the race. You would have been a hero.'
