Sorry I sent money to this man. He is very indecisive. Not presidential material.
Evidently, someone has offered him a better deal.
Loyalty sounds like a “Which way is the wind blowing”, Ben.
If you endorse someone on national TV, you should at least have the courage of your convictions.
Who cares what candidates who got single digits think?
The sentiment in FR seems to be that Ben Carson is a nice guy, but he isn’t quite up to the job.
Frankly, if you look a little more closely, I think it’s worse than that.
Just one example. When it was made public that Planned Parenthood was selling body parts of aborted babies for fat profits, Dr. Carson said, in effect, “Well, and what’s wrong with that?” In fact there was some indication that he would do the same thing himself.
Sorry, I don’t think he’s just dumb. I also think he can’t be trusted.
Dr. Ben is going to surgically remove his chances on career advancement. He seems very much conflicted and plainly inhibited. Maybe it’s best that he remove himself from the perimeter of the campaign anyway. The Progressives will keep inviting him for interviews to hear him mumble and indirectly bash other republicans. He will think they invite him because he’s still popular.
Carson endorsed Trump, saw the endorsement did not sell any more of his books (aka Campaign 2016), and is now rethinking.
In the same way liberals co-opted the word “gay” to use it in connection with filthy practices, they hi-jacked the word “fascist” to use against anyone who exerts authority.
Well, here the grain Pyramids, back out of the memory hole.
Nah, he’s just being himself, Ben Carson, which is why he didn’t win
The media have been asking him questions to trap him into saying things that will sound like he does not support Trump.
Dr. Carson has a way of speaking that can be twisted around out of context.
Just more media slime balls trying to embarrass Trump.

Carson is and will support Trump.
Give Carson a break guys. I saw him address these comments, he said the better choice he was referring to was himself for president, but that didn’t work out.
I have grown more fond of Carson and his massive frontal lobes. :)
An endorsement from Carson for Trump or against Trump makes no difference.
Ouch? What's wrong with that statement? Most people are aware of Trump because of television. People who accomplish great things in this society by building things rarely get the credit they deserve. Business builders are not held in high esteem, which is unfortunate.
I think people are trying to read things into Ben Carson's words that are not there.
Hey, Ben. Where’d you get that shoe print on your derriere?
I personally think this is the media again, trying to turn a nothing burger into a ‘breaking news’ nothing burger...
Carson is a smart man, and he has been friends with the Trump family for many years, and I just have a hard time thinking Dr. Carson would stab Trump in the back, especially since Cruz stabbed Dr. Carson in the back with Iowa, and then when Dr. Carson didn’t hear his name called at the debate and Trump stood with him and went out together...
I don’t care who you are, someone who plays nice with people don’t stab in the back...
