Continuing his anti-Trump tirades after mocking his “small hands” and alleged spray tan at the weekend, a hoarse Mr Rubio called out Mr Trump’s sketchy detail on policies and dismissed him as a barking dog.

Donald Trump said “there’s nobody that’s done so much for equality as I have” and unequivocally renounced the support of white supremacists on Tuesday.
TRUMP: “I didn’t even know he endorsed me”. “You wouldn’t want me to condemn a group that I know nothing about”.
“I want to get to Donald Trump”, Malzberg said, referencing the initial reason he had invited Duke on the program.
“But you were the Ku Klux Klan grand wizard, weren’t you?”
Trump is leading in opinion polls in several of those states. O’Reilly took up for Trump. The media did not issue a statement saying it had no position on the KKK.
The Democratic front-runner said that while Trump is doing well, she will “wait and see who they nominate”.
Liberal African-American commentator Van Jones nearly came to blows with Trump supporter and former member of the Ronald Reagan administration Jeff Lord. As far back as 2000, Trump had some choice words for Duke when he discussed the former Klansman joining the Reform Party. “This is not company I wish to keep”. But what I heard was various groups.
Duke also ranted about the “controlled media”, crying, “We don’t have to do the interview and I’ll just play this tape of what’s happening today to my people!” I said take a look at Facebook.
As for Trump’s explanation as to why he hesitated during the CNN interview, the Republican candidate blamed a lousy earpiece provided by the network. You may have groups in there that are totally fine – it would be very unfair.
“So let me ask you: do you still have a problem with Jews?” Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and his wife Jane Sanders vote in the Vermont primary at the Robert Miller Community and Recreation Center in Burlington, Vermont, Tuesday, March 1, 2016, on Super Tuesday. I’m pretty sure I didn’t meet him. “So I don’t know”.
Trump’s apparent unwillingness to disavow the KKK on Sunday quickly sparked a barrage of criticism.
“Either he’s not anywhere near as wealthy as he says he is, or he hasn’t been paying the kind of taxes we would expect him to pay, or perhaps he hasn’t been giving money to the vets or to the disabled like he’s been telling us he’s been doing”.
Cruz tweeted on Sunday: “Really sad”.

Jake Tapper, CNN host, had quite an interesting little chat with Donald Trump on Sunday, which is available to watch here. “We should all agree, racism is wrong, KKK is abhorrent”. “If he doesn’t know about the Ku Klux Klan, if he doesn’t know about white supremacy and David Duke, if he doesn’t know every aspect of the Constitution, ding, ding, ding, that should be kind of a red flag”, Cupp added.
