Marco Rubio Not Sorry For Bringing Dick Jokes Into Presidential Race

Many Republicans fear Mr Trump would lose November’s presidential election.

In his speech Friday, Romney called Trump a “phony” and a “fraud” whose domestic policies would lead to recession. “He thinks he’s hot stuff”. Marco Rubio spent the first part of the evening leveling personal attacks against Trump. “I don’t think he has the temperament to be president, so I want to see one of the other three to be the nominee”.

Mr Romney, the 2012 nominee, made a rare public appearance to denounce Mr Trump as “a phoney” who is “playing the American public for suckers”.

Rubio clarified that when he touts the #NeverTrump movement, he means that he would not vote for Trump in the Republican primary.

The country’s top elected Republican, House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan, said he was not interested in an effort to draft him into the White House race.

The former reality TV star apparently snubbed conservative Republicans when the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, said on Friday he was dropping out of the annual event outside of Washington, instead attending a rally in Kansas.

The criticism set the tone for a primetime debate in which Trump lashed back, calling Romney “a failed candidate” who lost to Barack Obama four years ago because he was such a poor candidate.

The moderators of the debate also confronted Mr. Trump with a series of contradictions and inconsistencies in his stances but he still could get away with his characteristic style that combines insults and boasts. “Can you believe it?” This is not a smart guy. ‘I’m out there every day talking about the future of America, outlining real plans, and by the way, an optimistic vision of the future. I love the people of Florida. My carpets were ruined. But hey, I don’t consider him elite because I’m much richer than he is. I have a store – I have a store – that’s worth more money than him. His remarks are said to be unprecedented in an USA presidential election. “In terms of immigration – and nearly anything else – there always has to be some, you know, tug and pull and deal”, Trump added. “Once a choker, always a choker”.

But some leaders in the party still hope Trump doesn’t become the nominee. “I wasn’t going to just sit on the sidelines until the very end”.
