Jeb Bush Touts 'Veto Corleone' Reputation in Florida

Jeb Bush touted his Florida gubernatorial record of reducing taxes and cutting spending by instilling a “frugal” government, in his latest campaign video published on July 20.

Fellow Republicans backed Bush’s record in the video, with Florida State Senator Jack Latvala recalling how Bush earned the nickname ‘Veto Corleone’, because “no one was safe from Jeb Bush’s veto count”. Latvala added that Bush used his veto more than 2,000 times to cut more than $2 billion in earmarks from the budget. Credit: YouTube/Jeb Bush
