Carson is not the only way to stop Trump. Trump will stop Trump. It's because of stuff like this that Trump will self-destruct. He can't help it, it's who he is.

If you showed this video to 100 Republican primary voters, at least 75 of them would be disgusted and turned off by Trump.

Only if YOU selected the people and know that they don’t like Trump.

This went beyond the usual Trump punches and sarcasm. I was shocked by what he said. It seemed he was self-destructing. Not a Trump supporter, (nor Carso) but was rooting for him sometimes and really like the immigration plan on his site.

This was a bad night for him and honestly, he deserves whatever criticism he gets for it.

Wise words. Donald Trump is clueless about the huge portion of the Evangelical Republican base. He just doesn’t live in their world or share their core values.

I don’t know how he can win without them.

Ben Carson is a renowned pediatric neurosurgeon. He was raised in Detroit by a single mother. His book and movie are the real thing. My teenagers are hugely inspired by him. They love his stories and enjoy his speeches. The stories about his temper in his youth are a small portion of his life story, used to illustrate his repentance. I get it. And how many other teens have experienced something do the same?

By making fun of this temper issue that Ben Carson says he overcame with God’s help, Trump is saying loud and clear to Evangelical Christians that sins are permanent. He’s treating Carson’s turning to Christ as something suspicious, shouting that people don’t change, and denying that God is sovereign and powerful. It’s completely against the whole gospel message! But Trump is ignorant of Christianity and doesn’t understand it. He might be able to get away with enough votes from the white voters with no college degrees, with broken family situations, who also feel alienated from the church, I suppose. They seem to be his personal base.

Let's see: our country is already occupied by generations of Marxist-schooled elites who prefer communism and atheism. Church attendance is the lowest it has ever been in the history of our nation. Our media establishment is complicit in the international socialist efforts to destroy our Constitution and individual rights. Perhaps 75% to 90% of our nation's people are involved in drugs, porn or sexual sins. The schools are teaching perversion of everything we hold dear and subjecting children to emotional and spiritual abuse. Our present Administration is purposefully enabling our nation to be INVADED by overwhelming immigration from other cultures, including terrorists and criminals with no background checks, and one of those cultures in particular has sworn "Death to America" -- so our Administration has vowed to send them $1.4 billion dollars. We're already being overrun, but the president and DOJ are also fomenting a race war inside the nation; and let's not forget: God may not deign to save us due to the millions of abortions for the past half century.

But wait! Some of us still cling to our guns and our Bibles, and want to run the race to the end. have repented of all the above national sins, and want God's blessing for us to fight to save our country. We'd like to have a chaplain, yes; but more than that, we NEED a fierce and fearless warrior, a David, a General Patton, a Charles Martel to LEAD us into the battle for our God, our land, our families, our children, our Constitution, our way of life. Onward, Christian soldiers! (Wait -- not you, Charles. You've accurately pointed out that our General is not nice.)
