Then here’s the beauty of all: He took a knife, and he went after a friend, and he lodged that knife into the stomach of a friend, but – lo and behold! – it hit the belt.

“People are really perplexed by his comments”, said Jeff Jorgensen, chairman of the Pottawatomie County Republicans in Iowa. “How stupid are the people of the country to believe this crap?” he exclaimed.
So, from that candidate who first made his political mark broadcasting conspiracy theories regarding President Obama’s birthplace, and kicked off his campaign by railing against immigrants, here is the message in brief: Ben Carson isn’t one of the good ones.
But the story is different among lower-paid workers.
“I don’t want a person who’s got pathological disease”, Trump said. He likened it to an attempt to reform a “child molester”. “There’s no cure for that”.
While most of the members of the panel expressed shock at Trump’s comments, panel member Donny Deutsch stood up and applauded the edited version of the rant.
“I expect that kind of thing. That’s what’s been going on in our country for years that’s dragging us in the mud”, Carson said in SC. I think you get more than that. I don’t want you to write to your Congressman, because I wouldn’t know what to tell you to write.
“You would know something about pathological”. How was that meeting with Putin?
Trump has sharpened his criticism of Carson, who he once said he would only attack if provoked, as the retired neurosurgeon rose in the polls. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials, and I won’t say anything. And that’s right, I’d blow up the pipes. I would blow up every single inch.
The fallout from Trump’s nasty broadside on Thursday was likely to reverberate in Orlando where Trump and Carson, the two front-runners, were among a host of candidates due to speak later at the Florida Republican Party’s Sunshine Summit. “I hope he will have the same grace”. Trump is a cancer that feeds on the discontent, racism and free-floating angst in the Republican electorate, and perhaps we deserve to see a huge neon Trump Sign in the White House in 2017.
The reaction on social media was mixed, although many described Trump’s attack as immature.
“And the people of Iowa believe him”.
“Pray for him”, Carson said in response to Trump’s barrage, according to one of his advisers.
Even though foreign policy has never been one of Trump’s strengths, he continued to boast he would be the best qualified to take on the increasing terrorist threat of ISIS.
“A child molester, there’s no cure for that”, Trump said. But each time, Trump doesn’t just endure, he excels. He referred to Carly Fiorina as “Carly whatever-the-hell-her-name-is”. “Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?”

Donald Trump is not being at all subtle in his latest wave of attacks on his current main opponent, Dr. Ben Carson, and it’s triggered yet another round of pundits wondering if The Donald has finally gone too far and crashed his campaign. Thirty-six percent of Trump voters chose Carson as their backup candidate, while 30 percent of Carson voters listed Trump as their second choice.
