Trump likens Carson to child molester
Donald Trump unloaded on the entire field GOP candidates during a close to hour and a half speech that was laden with insults that veered from comparing retired surgeon Ben Carson to a child molester to asking about the stupidity of voters that believe his narrative.
Referring to recent media questions about Carson’s self-described pathological temper in his youth, Trump made a comparison to child molesters, saying they are “incurable”.
Mr Trump still either leads or shares the lead among most geographical and demographic groups, including wealthy and middle-income voters, people with and without college degrees, in the south-east, north-east, the upper Mid-West and the American West.
For 95 minutes, the billionaire businessman criticized not only Carson but also many of his other competitors in the race for the GOP presidential nomination.
At one point, Trump stepped away from the podium and flipped his belt buckle up and down to mock Carson’s story that he once tried to stab someone, but was stopped by a belt buckle. “We don’t need either as president”.
“Now that he’s completed his gratuitous attack, why don’t we press on and deal with the real issues”, Carson told reporters in SC on Friday morning. “They’ll rebuild that sucker, brand new – it’ll be lovely”, Trump said.
“He scoffed at those who have accused him of not understanding foreign policy, saying he knows more about Islamic State terrorists “than the generals do.’ He took credit for predicting the threat of Osama bin Laden and being right on the “anchor baby situation, ‘ a position he says ‘these great geniuses from Harvard Law School” now back”. You don’t cure these people.
“If you’re a child molester, a sick puppy, you’re a child molester, there’s no cure for that”. He talked about how everyone else is wrong on illegal immigration and how even the “geniuses at Harvard” have now backed his way of thinking. More specifically, it revolved around Donald Trump speaking in Ft. “Give me a break, give me a break, give me a break, the knife broke”.
But Trump’s demise has been predicted numerous times already in this campaign – after he kicked things off by calling Mexican immigrants “rapists” in his announcement speech, when he insinuated that an aggressive Fox news debate moderator was menstruating, and by suggesting in Rolling Stone magazine that Fiorina is unattractive: “Look at that face”.
Trump, who is running neck and neck in most polls with Carson, issued an online video that calls the soft-spoken doctor a “violent criminal” and a “pathological liar”. He proceeded to step aside from the podium and play out Carson’s story. “It doesn’t happen that way”, Trump told the rally.
Trump’s support from religious voters meanwhile declined from 26 percent to 22 percent. “A feeling of lightness flowed over me, and I knew a change of heart had taken place”, Carson wrote in his memoir. “I know in this room that’s a different story”. Give me a break.
“But at no moment did I say to myself ‘Gee, I’m going to vote for this guy for president, ‘” Rattner said.
