Mr. Perry, hes gone.
“Frankly, Ben Carson’s a very, very nice man, but this will not be a good situation because of the fact that he’s not a dealer, he’s not a negotiator and the president has to be”, Trump said, pointing to the success of his real estate empire.
“The veterans in our country, our finest people, have been treated horribly by our government and its ‘all talk and no action politicians, ‘” Trump wrote.
President Obama reportedly told advisers last week that he would like to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees to the USA in the approaching budget year. I think its part of the reason Im so high in the polls. On Saturday, Trumps campaign was soaring while Perrys White House ambitions were dead.
More than a dozen major Republican candidates remain in the 2016 field, yet Trump’s dominance is suffocating his rivals.
Republican officials and donors alike are left in a state of mass confusion about Trump’s remarkable staying power despite his repeated gaffes and inexperience on key issues.
“We need energy”, Trump said.
In an interview with The New York Times, Penny Nance, president of Concerned Women for America, explained what she sees as the problem for Trump among the Evangelicals who dislike him. “Probably a lot of Jeb donors wish they had their money back“.

The retired neurosurgeon, who is recently earning silver medals in national opinion polls, raised the specter of Tamerlan and Dzokhar Tsarnaev, the immigrant brothers who came to the United States in 2002 and a decade later organized the attack. Ted Cruz, perhaps Trump’s biggest ally, declined to address the Trump effect on Perry’s exit on Saturday.
I recognize that the media enjoys seeing Republicans bicker back and forth with each other and throw rocks at each other. “I think he is naive in some ways, particularly in terms of foreign policy and immigration”. I step aside knowing our party is in good hands, as long as we listen to the grassroots, listen to that cause of conservatism.. A week after Carson seemed to suggest that he did not think Trump, a New York businessman who is not known for strong religious affectations, did not live a faith-driven life, Carson reiterated that his comments had been misconstrued.
Also appearing on CBS, Carson declined to engage Trump, instead trumpeting his experience in the medical and corporate worlds.
Austin Barbour, a leader of the pro-Perry super PACs, said the groups have as much as $13 million in the bank.
Carson said it was all too easy for Islamic militants to take advantage of the relaxed standards for refugees.
