Carson Apologizes for Questioning Trump's Faith
Foxnews.com ^ | September 12, 2015

Posted on 09/12/2015 5:58:06 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson on Friday apologized for questioning fellow primary challenger Donald Trump’s spiritual faith, drawing further contrast on how top GOP candidates handle the front-running Trump's calculated and often withering attacks.

“I think I did slip, and that’s why I apologized,” Carson said on Fox News’ “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren.”

I don’t know what Trump has in mind with Cruz...

I think they looked really good at the Iran Rally the other day...and Trump and Cruz have talked a lot...maybe Trump wants to move Cruz into the Supreme Court, if not his V.P.

I think if Trump wins the nomination and he picks Cruz, there would be a landslide victories, and all those phonys in Cali would run to another country (you know the ones that play act and think its real life?)

No no, this was the summer of Trump... it CAN’T BE THE AUTUMN OF TRUMP TOO! Oh the huge manatees.

LOL

Boy there are going to be some massive dental bills before Trump is done, all the gnashing of teeth.

Poor Ben. Good guy, great surgeon. But the apology now puts him even further in the other camp. That's what people like about Trump. He never apologizes.

Carson's only hope was to move on and act like it didn't happen.

The real question is who will all these white guilt Carson supporters run to when Carson fades?

Well if it's really white guilt, then George Bailey.

I might start watching Fox news again just to see all the idiots with eggs in their faces.

Don't hold your breath on Meghan Kelly. That twit is beyond help. Woman scorned and scorched by Trump has become a vindictive sick puppy.

Actually all three should quit BEFORE the next debate as they have zero chance of winning and are just distractions.

Why should he apologize? I believe trump stated himself that he never asked Christ to forgive him

[[Trump to Iowa evangelicals: I’m not sure I’ve ever asked God for forgiveness]]

IF Trump said this, then questioning his faith IS a legitimate line of questioning- The people have a right to know whether Trump just claims to be a Christian, or if he actually asked Christ to be his savior-

Will he also apologize to officer Wilson for playing Monday morning quarterback and saying he wouldn’t have shot Saint Brown?

Franklin Graham endorsed Donald Trump and that is good enough for me.

Cruz would best serve as Senate Majority Leader.

I, 867V309, have decided to throw my hat into the ring for the Republican Presidential Primary.

But first, let me apologize.
