If you’re talking about Carson, my point is that his campaign is very lacking in energy to the point that he has a fake bus driven around that he’s not on.

I think he knows he’s gonna withdraw soon but still continues to bilk his fans. That may be true of a couple of other people but not all.

Trump is at the top of his game here. I’m recording the also-rans on CNN for later viewing.

yep he is handling they questions very well, and they aint softballs. Answers, repeats his main points etc.

Especially the Israel peace question. I will try hardest deal in the world and I will not make biased statements ahead of time.

Particularly disgusting in view of the fact that his campaign was riding high way back when and he was leading in Iowa.

That’s when Mr. Trump called him pathological and compared him to a child molester. Carson pretty much faded away after that.

But did he go after Trump or even protest the attack? No, he chose to blame the Nice Guy for an obvious misunderstanding.

Your question about drugs and free markets - all for it for those that want to pay for it. I’d rather go to a pharmacy that has prepackaged drugs and pay less. That would be competition.

I stopped FOX watching and hearing their open borders bias - now enjoy Mornin’ Joe with my morning coffee.

I still cannot listen or watch that spitting kook, Chrissy mathews.

I’ll take the CHOICE of big pharma or alternative health in this country than socialized, controlled, limited/non existent medicine in a commie country all day long.

You and your pal are proof that FR is rife with libs

Is there some sort of halo or heavenly glow around Trump.

You sound a wee bit worshipful.
