GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump attacked rival Jeb Bush on Tuesday for speaking Spanish to a group of constituents.

"I like Jeb," Trump told Breitbart News. "He's a nice man. But he should really set the example by speaking English while in the United States."

Trump was reacting to Bush's own criticism of Trump, who told a group of reporters in Miami, "El hombre no es conservador," The Tampa Bay Times reported. That translates to, "The man is not conservative."

Bush continued in English: "Besides, he tries to personalize everything. If you're not totally in agreement with him you're an idiot, or stupid, or don't have energy, or blah blah blah."

Bush's wife is a native of Mexico, and he says he speaks Spanish in his home.
