Jeb Bush recreates one of his brother's most cringe-worthy moments
Jeb Bush may differ from his brother on money, but he and George W. Bush are apparently alike when it comes to massages.
In 2006, former President George W. Bush gave Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel a shoulder massage, a move Vice President Joe Biden later recreated with Defense Secretary Ash Carter's wife. Now, Jeb Bush has joined in, as he massaged the shoulders of Salem New Hampshire Chamber of Commerce President Donna Morris at an event Thursday.
Morris joked to Jeb Bush, "Oh, you take my breath away," and he responded with the massage. Check out Bush's move in the video below. —Meghan DeMaria
