Looks like Trumps attack on Carson worked though

***************

Yes— but I said at the time— how does Trump’s attacks on Carson help Trump, especially in Iowa?

I mean, objectively, Carson had a lock on the Evangelical vote- thus keeping Cruz in 3rd place. Donald benefited by the Carson/Cruz split. By attacking Carson, he elevated Cruz.

That’s one of the reasons I feel Trump isn’t making a real play in Iowa.

If I am not mistaken Trump was tied or losing to Carson the last time around, so I would say it helped a lot by clarifying to people what Carson is all about.
