Fiorina on Trump: ‘Maybe I’m getting under his skin a little bit’

Would anyone vote for that?

Donald Trump’s presidential campaign strategy appears to be: Open mouth, insert foot.

As congenial Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson surges in the polls, he has landed in the crosshairs of front-runner Donald Trump, the brash New York real estate mogul known for his withering insults.

On Thursday he faced a new controversy, after a Rolling Stone article quoted him pointing to Fiorina on TV and exclaiming, “Look at that face!” ‘Look at that face!’ he cries.

“I’ve been making lots of wonderful deals, great deals, that’s what I do”, Trump said.

“I have to say, if he emerges, I would love to debate him”, Clinton said at a campaign rally in Columbus, Ohio.

Trump continues: “I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on”. The undisputed leader of the crowded field in early national polls, Trump is generally considered the biggest reason why Fox News Channel reached 24 million people for the first Republican presidential debate last month – the most watched programme in Fox News history.

During the CNN interview in response, Trump attacked Carson’s laid-back attitude, his faith, his pro-life stance and even his expertise as a surgeon, Cuomo was barely able to get a word in edgewise.

Her steady rise in the polls can largely be attributed to her strong performance in the debate for second-tier GOP candidates that was conducted on August 6. “I’m talking about her persona”.

But with Fiorina performing stunningly well in that night’s undercard debate featuring the lowest-polling seven candidates, CNN was pressured into modifying its conditions to place more value on later polling, when she ranked higher. “That’s undeniable. We have a tradition of doing this and I think we have an obligation to do this in support of the displaced people that are suffering”. “Your parents, I believe, aren’t native Americans, so they were probably immigrants as well”, Goldberg said. And he is the leader among Republican women in the poll.

“Well, I think those comments speak for themselves”, Fiorina said. “The middle class in my proposal – all of them – will get, on average, a 33% cut in taxes”.

Trump then went on to accuse Carson of giving an insincere speech about humility, which sounded like he memorized it right before giving the speech.
