Cruz, Carson, Rubio take part in town hall

Then, it plays bits of Trump’s 1999 interview with Tim Russert where Trump says he is pro-choice.

“Mr Trump, you have been threatening frivolous lawsuits for your entire adult life”.

File the lawsuit…. I may take the deposition myself. “I’m a common-sense conservative”, Trump said, in response to another claim from the Cruz camp that he “flip-flops” on the issues.

Trump previously said on Friday that he had “standing” to sue if Cruz didn’t “clean up his act, stop cheating, & doing negative ads”. “But I don’t think the American people want a court that will strip our religious liberties”, asserted Cruz.

Cruise denied they were involved, instead blasting the Rubio campaign for making the accusation and putting out robo calls that called Cruz “unethical”.

The day before, Trump released a statement raging about Cruz’s supposedly “fraudulent” campaign actions. The real estate developer again hinted he might sue Cruz, who was born in Canada to a USA citizen mother, over his eligibility to run for president. “I want a fighter at the end of the day – someone who’s going to hold Republicans accountable – and I want someone who’s really going to make a difference, not just for our party, but for everyone they represent”.

Rubio continued to criticize Cruz for “saying anything to get elected”, including, he said, lying about the Florida senator’s record on immigration.

Ted Cruz (R-TX) dared rival Donald Trump to proceed with a threatened lawsuit against the Cruz campaign over a TV ad that accuses Trump of having been pro-choice in the past. Several candidates are vying for second place, as Rubio and Cruz were each polling at 18 percent, according to a Public Policy Polling survey, the State reported Monday. “His campaign has not gotten the traction it wanted”.

Standings: The newest South Carolina PPP survey has Trump in front with 35 percent, Cruz and Rubio with 18 percent, Kasich with 10 percent and Bush and Carson with 7 percent. “And I’ll address them”, Rubio said. “Liar! Liar!'” Cruz said Tuesday.

“He didn’t tell the truth about Ben Carson in Iowa, and he’s not telling the truth about my position on marriage, on Planned Parenthood”, said Mr Rubio.

“Donald Trump is a direct cause of Obamacare because if either house had remained in Republican control, Obamacare would’ve never passed”, Cruz told reporters. Trump has been polling ahead, with Cruz trailing in second.

As the three candidates appeared Wednesday night on CNN, Trump took part in his own town hall forum with SC voters broadcast at the same time on MSNBC from Charleston, S.C.

Over the past week, Rubio, Cruz, and Trump have engaged in a pitched battle over campaign tactics, as Rubio and Trump have both accused the Cruz campaign of dirty campaigning.

Later on, Mr. Bush also dismissed the notion of carpet bombing the Islamic State terrorist group – an idea that has been put forward by Sen. “I am responding with simple facts”. Wednesday, the Texas senator said bring it on.
