Republican Party leaders have turned aside an effort to change the rules at the party’s upcoming national convention to make it harder for the GOP to nominate a fresh presidential candidate.
You might have noticed something different about Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump lately.
Trump, who pretends to be the smartest man ever to run for president and master manipulator of the media, cannot see a “gotcha” question yet.
