Given the opportunity, Jeb Bush says he’d go back in time and kill baby Hitler.
“Hell yeah, I would!” the former Florida governor told The Huffington Post. “You gotta step up, man.”
Bush said he knows there’s no way to predict how the course of human history would change – and whether World War II could have been avoided – had the eventual German dictator never escaped infancy.
The question came from a poll from New York Times magazine.
“It could have a dangerous effect on everything else, but I’d do it – I mean, Hitler,” Bush said.
