Jeb! at least tried to look sincere. Trump didn't even try.

At least Trump Tower doesn't charge $75 for taco bowls.

Trump's, but that's an incredibly low bar to clear.

Trump's was actually racist. But Jeb's was just funny. On the side of cringey, I think it was Trump's, although Hillary's Abuela stuff was pretty stupid too.

But they would be "Made in China" and probably have lead paint.

Trump's taco bowl, obviously. Jeb! was simple pandering, but Trump's was out of pure desperation.

Jeb Bush, actually, is part of it. It is not even pandering: it is his life. Nothing to cringe from.

Trump isn't pandering either. Or, at least, not pandering to Hispanics. It is pandering to white Americans without a college degree. And, yeah, it is cringeworthy.

trumps is worse because of the "I love Hispanics!" But Jeb!'s is pretty cringeworthy too, but in a funny kind of way.

Kaine's "Si se puede" in Howard Deanish fashion at the DNC ought to get some mention.

Mike Pence is the only one out of the four ticket members that honestly doesn't pander.

Did anyone ever catch up with Jeb! to establish what are all of the "really cool things" that he is presumably doing in the absence of a campaign to run?

That's because he looks like he's in the Hitler Youth. He's so stereotypically "Aryan" looking it gives me chills.

The worst pandering I've seen this time was El Jebe Bush saying he liked "wakamole" in an interview. What a tool!

Trump was pandering, but not to Latinos.  He was baiting people into virtue-signaling behavior that annoys his base, which largely thinks that this is a dumb thing to get offended by, and finds the ensuing "of course it's offensive -- everyone knows that!" reaction especially grating.  Trump knows what he's doing.  I wouldn't even put these two in the same category of pandering.

I also agree that Jeb is probably depressingly proud of his guacamole recipe.

At least Donald Trump doesn't actively pretend he's Hispanic like Jeb! does.

I still want to learn Jeb's Guacamole recipe!

I can guess it:

- three avocados
- two tablespoons of cilantro
- one diced tomatoes
- one diced onion
- a lifetime full of crippling self loathing
- 4 liters of fresh tears
