How do those on FR think Trump should handle Carson at this point in time.
Here are my suggestions:
1.Bide his time and don’t criticize Carson on his strong points, such as character, religion, personal convictions and his medical achievements
2.If/when he criticizes Carson, go after his weaknesses, lack of record, is he up to dealing with all that is going on outside of the US and does Carson have what it takes to clean up after Obama and make America great again
3.avoid talking much about Carson, so he doesn’t get in the way of Carson dealing with the increased scrutiny of being a front runner. Trump doesn’t want to be the story
4.Decide if he wants to put in a big effort to try and win Iowa or make sure he finishes a strong 2nd. Religion is a big issue in Iowa and Carson has the edge over Trump on this. Definitely don’t attack his faith, except for maybe the “pacifist” aspect of it.
5.Trump has become a much better campaigner, make sure that is on full display in the debate. Compliment Carson on his campaign success. Make the point over and over that both of their success is due to peoples frustration and disgust with Washington and the political establishment
6.Try to get Carson to restate his immigration policy and get more specific on his solutions. Carson is soft here.
Even though I don’t support Carson, he is a great human being, overcame great odds and the world could sure use more people like him.

I agree with all of your suggestions. Currently, Trump combined with Carson are sucking all of the air out of the contest. This will force more of the GOPe candidates to drop out sooner. The sooner Jeb, Fatso, Surly, and Rubio are gone the better. Carson will fade under increased scrutiny especially since he is afraid to confront the invasion of foreigners we are currently experiencing.
Where we live going to the mall or even Walmart feels like you are shopping in a foreign country. And this is no exaggeration... There are literally more people speaking in foreign languages than English. Low skilled invaders are taking all of the entry level jobs and sucking up welfare at an unprecedented rate. They do not believe in our way of life and have no intention of assimilating. They vote 4 to 1 Democrat. I suppose that there are parts of the country that have yet to feel the brunt of this but it is coming to everyone soon. It is a very bad situation that threatens the existence of the United States. Obama has already succeeded in fundamentally changing America around here.
Carson has refused to confront this issue as Trump has. When people realize this they will vote Trump even if they talk about what a great guy he is and how inspirational he is. Any attack Trump makes on Carson would probably be counterproductive. I would like to see Cruz as Trump’s VP, but Carson would probably bring more votes to the ticket in the general election.
