We part company on that. I support Mr. Donald Trump 100 percent, but he doesn't always return fire. He will take issue with statements made by rivals that are not aimed at him, which cannot legitimately be called returning fire . Dr. Carson's statements in one of his books for example, with regard to battling with his Mother and a friend of his.

I'm not here to argue against Mr. Donald Trump because I am completely FOR him. I want him to win the GOP nomination and with that foremost in my mind, I hope he gets back to emphasizing his campaign motto "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN" by touting his massive strengths and limiting his attacks to Hillary, Bernie, demonics-rats and RINO rivals who ARE attacking him...like Bush.

I am NOT against TRUMP attacking his chief rivals CRUZ and RUBIO but I think TRUMP will do best by keeping his message positive and uplifting! Voters prefer to VOTE FOR A CANDIDATE, NOT AGAINST a competing rival in primaries when they like two or more.

PLUS, if he goes after Hillary now, he will give primary voters a preview of what he will do to her when he's the GOP nominee.

Hmm. You’re sure Carson did not attack him first? I take your word for it. I think much of it was return fire, though. I remember him holding off on Cruz until that meeting in NY where Cruz was recorded dissing Trump.

I too would prefer it if we had a more civil campaign. One in which the candidates attacked the issues and people were obliged to say touche. We’ve come a long way from that.

The thing I most detest is cheating, however. It seems at least one circle lower than a verbal criticism.
