Donald Trump long ago turned Jeb Bush into a “low-energy” punchline.

But Bush isn’t done [punching back](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smOptl93%5F3U&feature=youtu.be "undefined"). In a new two-minute ad, which will run this week in New Hampshire, he contrasts the controversial antics of candidate Trump, including a critical clip from Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, with Bush’s own tough-talking campaign stump speech.

In the most recent, [RealClearPolitics average of polls](http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/nh/new%5Fhampshire%5Frepublican%5Fpresidential%5Fprimary-3350.html "undefined"), Trump is the frontrunner polling at 34%, compared to forth place Bush, who is polling at about 11%.
