Facing a primary showdown in New Hampshire just six days from now, donald trump is talking about a doover in iowa where he came in second place behind ted cruz. In a twitter tirade, hes accusing cruz of playing dirty tricks to pull off mondays win, but trumps not the only candidate sounding off about cruz who is busy barnstorming through New Hampshire with a wind at his back and apparently a target on his back. Nbcs Hallie Jackson tells us more. Republicans push ahead in New Hampshire, Donald Trumps looking back to iowa, sparking a new feud with the there. Ted cruz didnt win he stole it.

Listen, donalds insults get more and more hysterical the more and more upset he get. Reporter do you think they are fun . I think they are very funny. I wake up every day and laugh at the latest thing donald has tweeted because hes losing it. Isnt under any investigation, but late today carson said hes not laughing. Its clear that there were people who tried to take advantage of a situation, who tried information. Reporter cruzs rivals piling on bullet. Being a pro i think it goes back to what i said before and that is the willingness to say or do anything, in this case spread a false rumor about ben carson. Reporter marco rubio, trump and the rest of the field now focused on organization, trump beefing up his with seven phone banks, volunteers from four states here, the frontrunner so dominant in recent polls some establishment candidates may need a hand, and jeb bush is asking for it.

Reporter taking aim at this sanders comment to nbcs kasie hunt after clinton called herself a progressive. Reporter do you think hill shill a progress sniff. Some days, yes.

Reporter barely avoiding an embarrassing defeat in iowa, clinton comes to New Hampshire behind can she repeat her 2008 comeback win over barack obama . I listened to you, and in the process ive found my own voice. Reporter this time her campaign is trying to lower expectations against the vermont senator. This is a steep climb in New Hampshire.

I think that that argument, that the only reason that were doing well hopefully here in New Hampshire is because were from a neighboring state is not totally true. Reporter also attacking her for make big money in the past from paid speeches, wall street banks and colleges. Earning 200,000 plus, ive got a real problem with that. Reporter pressure is on sanders.
