Trump Mocks Carson Over Knife Attack

Ben Carson, who is outpacing the billionaire developer in a few polls, received the brunt of his scorn, with Trump calling the neurosurgeon a “child molester”, a “sick puppy” and a “pathological liar”.

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee offered the most detailed proposal, which included recommending “close[ing] our borders instead of Guantanamo” and “institut[ing] an immediate moratorium on admission to those persons from countries where there is strong presence of ISIS or Al-Qaeda”.

Trump mocked Carson’s anecdote about his attempt to stab another boy, which was thwarted by the victim’s belt buckle.

Trump honed in on the word Carson used to describe himself back in the day (pathological) and pounced… like only Donald Trump can.

When Donald Trump declared his candidacy for President of the United States we expected him to provide comic relief for the electorate, to be a nuisance to the serious contenders, and to walk away after a couple of months to pursue other entertainment and business opportunities.

Later, campaigning in SC, Carson labeled the attack “gratuitous” and decried what he called “the politics of personal destruction”. “I think this was the turning point, the SC senator who’s also running for president said on Fox News America’s Newsroom”. Marco Rubio as a “lightweight”, only to say later in the speech that it’s a derogatory term and that he refused to call him that.

“How stupid are the people of Iowa?” he told the audience of Iowans at the Iowa Central Community College. Or will Trump give up, frustrated by the challenge of the presidential trail and the inexplicable (to him) popularity of a man with a sometimes unbelievable biography? “He said he’s pathological and that he’s got, basically, pathological disease”.

What’s less talked about is that if Trump does decide he is mad as hell and not going to take it anymore, the collapse that follows might have as much – if not more – impact on the 2016 Republican race than his rise to the top of the polls did. I said, “there’s a guy, Osama bin Laden, and we better do something about him because he’s gonna go under a rock”-and this is what I said in the book-and three years later the World Trade Center came down with him”. Somebody hits you in the belt the knife is going in because the belt moves this way.

“I’d bomb the s– out of them”, he said.

It’s not the first time Trump has shown exasperation with the state in which he was once the heavy front-runner. “On the other hand, if Trump is rejected, that is helpful”.

Cruz, of Texas, had blasted Rubio, of Florida, as favouring amnesty for illegal immigrants by sponsoring a 2013 legislative effort in the Senate.

However, the panel said Trump made one political error that could be fatal. “Now he said he was pathological, okay”.

“It’s not the kind of dialogue that I would ever engage in”, Carson told reporters in SC on Friday.

“They were just shooting them one by one and then they (security forces) broke in and had a big shootout and ultimately killed the terrorists”, he added. “You don’t cure the child molester”.
