Tom Brady’s Deflategate victory on Thursday quickly became a political football in the GOP primary, with a spokesman for Jeb Bush’s campaign using it to take a swing at Donald Trump’s suggestion that Bush should speak English while in the U.S.
After Trump congratulated his “friend” and “total winner” Brady on Thursday’s court decision in the quarterback’s favor, Bush campaign spokesman Tim Miller reminded Trump that Brady speaks Portuguese with his wife Gisele Bundchen at home.

Miller’s offering of Brady family trivia appears to be in response to a comment made by Trump Wednesday that Bush “should really set the example by speaking English while in the United States.”
