Still, Carson said Trump’s attacks are “not the kind of dialogue I’d ever engage in”.

In response to the attacks, Carson told reporters “Now that he’s completed his gratuitous attack, why don’t we press on and deal with the real issues?”
“It’s in the book that he’s got a pathological temper”, he said, referring to Ben Carson’s memoir about his youthful rebellion and bad behavior, when he appeared on CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront. “If you’re a child molester, a sick puppy, you’re a child molester, there’s no cure for that”.
Belt buckles are not going to stop it because they are going to turn. Hanging was a comparison between Carson’s “pathological temper” & the mindset of kid molesters.
“So he’s a pathological, damaged camper”, Trump said during his Thursday speech. He said Carson had a “pathological temper” that can’t be cured any more than a child molester can be cured.
It looks like the grind of the campaign trail is starting to wear on short-fingered reality TV star Donald Trump, who, despite his best efforts, is still slipping in the polls to Ben Carson. On Friday Trump released an Instagram video again calling into question Carson’s story about attempting to stab a friend his adolescents.
Friday evening Carson and Trump will speak back-to-back at Republican gathering in Florida.
“But at no moment did I say to myself ‘Gee, I’m going to vote for this guy for president, ‘” Rattner said. “He lunged that knife into the stomach of his friend, but, lo and behold, it hit the belt!” It would be nice if he said, no, none of these things did happen.
“How stupid are the people of Iowa?”. But then that’s why the people who like him, like him. Trump further inquired, “How stupid are the people of the country to believe this crap?”
He said otherwise he thought Trump was energetic and amusing, and he’s still considering voting for him.
Trump ridiculed the account, saying that Carson went into the bathroom, came out, “and now he’s religious”.
“I think melted down last night”.
“I just don’t know”, he said. “I’d blow up the pipes, I’d blow up the refineries, I’d blow up every single inch-there would be nothing left”.

While Trump is now ahead in Iowa polls leading up to the GOP’s first caucus, Carson has been steadily gaining, despite a raft of questions about his views, his veracity and his mental health.
