Yeah well if she were interviewing she would be asking personal very invasive questions. It is all about who owns MSM and their agenda and all of them have the leftist agenda.

Donald Trump slammed fellow 2016 Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson for questioning his faith, calling the retired pediatric neurosurgeon an "OK doctor" who was "heavy into the world of abortion."
“I am a man of faith,” he said. “I hardly know Ben Carson. I’m a believer, big league in God. I will hit back on that.”
“I don’t think he’s a great religious figure,” Trump added. “If you look at his faith, you’re not going to make it very far.”
Trump argued on Thursday that Carson’s medical background undermines his claims about his spiritual convictions.
“He was an OK doctor,” he said of the retired neurosurgeon. “He was heavy into the world of abortion.”
Carson questioned the sincerity of Trump’s spirituality during an interview Wednesday evening.
“I realize where my successes come from, and I don’t in any way deny my faith in God,” he told listeners during a campaign rally in Anaheim, Calif.
“I think that’s the big differentiator,” Carson added, comparing himself to Trump.
“That’s a very big part of who I am – humility and fear of the Lord. I don’t get that impression from him.”
“When Ben Carson makes a phony statement, I am going to attack him.” Trump said on Thursday. “Ben Carson is not going to be the next president, that I can tell you.”
“He makes Bush look like the energizer bunny,” he added, taunting Carson’s soft-spoken persona and former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-Fla.), another GOP presidential rival, at the same time.
Trump’s war of words with Carson comes as he leads the former doctor and other Republicans in the race for their party’s presidential nomination next year.
Carson currently ranks second place after Trump in the hunt for next year’s Republican presidential nomination across multiple national polls.
Trump earns 29.8 percent to Carson’s 16 percent voter support, according to the latest RealClearPolitics average of samplings.

IMO Carson kind of stepped in it here. Trumps Relationship with God is personal and should not be judged especially by someone who does not know him personally.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) has surged past fellow 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in Iowa, according to a new poll.
In July, Clinton at 52 percent among Iowa’s likely Democratic caucus-goers versus 33 percent for Sanders.
“[Sanders] is the candidate of the Democratic left, against his own party’s bosses and their prized presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton,” said Peter A. Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
“Sanders has seized the momentum by offering a message more in line with disproportionately liberal primary and caucus voters,” he added.
The new sampling also finds an enthusiasm boost among Iowa’s likely Democratic caucus-goers for Vice President Biden as he weighs a third Oval Office bid.
Pollsters found 12 percent support for Biden in the Hawkeye State, up 7 percent from Quinnipiac’s sampling in July.
Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley garnered 3 percent.
Quinnipiac University surveyed 832 likely Iowa Democratic caucus-goers from Aug. 27-Sept. 8 for its latest sampling. It has a 3.4 percent margin of error.

At least Sanders is honest about what his political leanings are. Hillary is still lying through her teeth, and I don't really believe she can even tell the truth anymore.
M
Here is the thing, Hillary is lying but she is not fooling anyone. The Dems would have already taken her out if they thought Sanders could win. They know he cannot. They think that if she can BS her way to the election although she is very unpopular, Soros has the money to foot the bill for the voter fraud and she will get in anyway. That is how Obama won this last time, because of the votes tabulated in another country and voter fraud of all kinds.They think it will work again, all she has to do is BS her way to the election.

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has widened his lead over GOP challengers, according to a new poll.
Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson also saw increased support in the latest poll, gaining 10 points to 19 percent.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush dropped 4 points to 9 percent.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) remains in fourth place with 7 percent voter support, followed by former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who are tied at 5 percent.
Eleven other Republican contenders grab 3 percent or less among potential voters, pollsters found.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) saw the most significant shift among candidates outside the top five, CNN reported, falling 5 points since August.
The latest CNN/ORC survey, conducted by telephone last Friday through Tuesday among a random national polling of 1,012 adults, has a 4.5 percent margin of error for Republican voters.

Supporters of the so-called carried interest tax break quickly struck back on Wednesday at GOP candidate Jeb Bush's to roll back the provision's preferential tax treatment.
Advocates for private equity, one of the biggest beneficiaries of the current set-up, said Bush's plan "would discourage growth and investment."
"Tax law has always recognized that carried interest realized in the sale of a capital asset is a capital gain. This is part of the American principle that we incentivize the entrepreneurial risk taking required to start, save, and grow businesses," said James Maloney of the Private Equity Growth Capital Council.
"Instead of increasing taxes on private equity, venture capital, and real estate investment, it is our hope that as the debate over tax reform unfolds, Presidential candidates will utilize the opportunity to encourage, not undermine, long-term investment in the United States."
Democrats have long called for scrapping the preferential tax treatment for carried interest, and hammered the GOP's 2012 nominee, Mitt Romney, over the issue. Polls for years have found that voters want higher taxes on the wealthy, and Democrats have pointed to carried interest as they made a broader populist case to battle income inequality.
The current GOP front-runner, businessman Donald Trump, has suggested for weeks that those on Wall Street aren't paying enough in taxes, a populist message that has also gained traction.
But other conservative fiscal analysts joined the private equity lobby in chiding Bush over his carried interest proposal, even as they found much to like in the former Florida governor's proposal.
"No Republican should be for higher taxes on capital gains," said Grover Norquist's Americans for Tax Reform.

Donald Trump on Thursday defended controversial remarks about fellow 2016 GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina, saying he was commenting on her “persona,” not her appearance.
“Look at that face!” Trump was quoted as saying in a Rolling Stone interview published on Wednesday.
“Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?” he reportedly said while watching a news report about the ex-businesswoman.
“I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not supposed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?” Trump added.
“I say that about a lot of people – ‘look at that! That’s not going to be the president,’” Trump said on Thursday.
“When I get criticized constantly about my hair, nobody does a story about, ‘oh, isn’t that terrible, they criticized Donald Trump’s hair,’” Trump added.
Trump also blasted Fiorina’s business background during a separate interview on Thursday.
“When she and other people hit me on things, nobody comes to my defense,” he told host Chris Cuomo on CNN’s “New Day.”
“I have to win,” Trump said. “The fact is Carly Fiorina has a terrible past.”
“She was viciously fired from Hewlett Packard,” he added of Fiorina, the technology company’s former CEO. “The company practically cratered. It still hasn’t recovered.”
Trump also charged on Thursday that Fiorina’s failures leading Hewlett-Packard CEO render her unfit for the Oval Office.
“She was a disaster CEO,” he said. “She destroyed a company.”
“These are two people who will not be president,” Trump added, lumping Fiorina with Ben Carson, another rival for the 2016 GOP presidential nomination.

Dear God they are all over him. Why is no one outraged that his hair is attacked constantly and Stephen Colbert had a picture of the KKK up with Trump on his stupid propaganda night show. There is no level playing field with the propagandist and talking heads.
Colbert is as left as you can get. His comedy is always against the conservative using negative indices from propaganda techniques. He is basically a shill for the Socialist/Elitist movement. I call him Scumbag. the way to defeat him is to not watch him and complain to the advertisers who's products pay for the Late Show that we the people don't find him anything but Obnoxious and want him off the air, and you won't buy their products until he is gone..
