That was a great victory. Were off to nevada, off to atlanta. Then i go to nevada where ill be for a couple of days i have lot of property out there, lot of great employees. I think i should do well in nevada. Dickerson if you get the nomination youd be shocked . Well, i wouldnt be shocked. Look again im competing against professional politicians, senators, top of the line. Ben carson is still in hes a terrific guy and a talented guy. Im competing against a lot of really good people. I dont want to say its mine. Certainly im leading, theres no question about that. Weve got long way to go. Dickerson marco rubio said now that the campaign is in this phase you have to be more specific about your Foreign Policy vision and knowledge. Well, i think i have great knowledge of Foreign Policy, frankly. Despite what some people said i was always against the war in iraq, lot of people werent. They just got on this bandwagon i had great knowledge of military and i think i have better vision for syria than lot of socalled great military geniuses saying to fight the war with syria. And my opinion theyre doing just the opposite, going to start World War Three over syria be there for the next 40 years. Weve whether b there for 15 years in the middle east much more than that probably. Weve spent probably 4 trillion maybe more than that. Its time to do something about it. And its time to also knock isis out. You have to knock isis out. Dickerson let me ask you about your position on the iraq war. Youve referred to that a lot. Everybody has gone through the things you said. Seems like a lot more muted your opposition to the war, Everybody Knows when you Say Something its pretty clear what you mean. On iraq it was a little bit more muddled than youve been making it seem. Well, john, you have to understand i wasnt a politics, i hadnt even thought of being a me about the war. Not like now where every day youre being asked questions about things. I spoke with howard stern who is a friend of mine on his show. And this was many months before, he was talking about, yeah, i dont know, i was thinking about it. I didnt even think about it. When the war start, actually Joe Scarborough called yesterday and put something out where basically is on my side, that was early on, that was before the fact it was very early on. He interviewed me years ago at the very beginning that was just put out yesterday evening i thank joe for that. Look, i was against it. I was against it very early. And we shouldnt have been in there. I think it is probably perhaps the worst mistake weve ever made. First of all, they didnt knock down the World Trade Center it wasnt iraq, it was other people. Without mentioning names, it was other people. Some day open the report and find out. But it was other people that knocked down the World Trade Center. Thing now. It was a horrible mistake that unfortunately we should never have done we lost trillions of dollars, thousands of lives, Wounded Warriors who are all over the place and here is the other part. Iran is taking offeree a. They wanted it for decades and decades. Theyre taking it over. As you sit there and as i sit here, they are going in taking over, just walk in they can do whatever they want they are already taken it over. Dickerson last week when the pope made his remark about your christianity, no leader especially religious should have right to question another man easy ridge on or faith. Just last week you questioned ted cruises christianity several time in the course of the campaign might have helped you win South Carolina. Why is it okay for you not okay for the pope . , no i never questioned teds teds anything having to do with his religion. I just said you cant lie and hold up a bible. You cant do that. Just cant do that its not i was tough on him. Because things were said abut me that were not true and marco rubio said that he lied, ive never seen a politician say to another politician that he lied. I guess it happens. But what marco actually gave me cover because he actually said the same thing, he said it during the debate that he was lying. I just said you cant say things which are lies and claim christianity you just cant do it. I dont think its good. Im not questioning his christianity i think its inappropriate to hold up the bible and lie. Dickerson do you think the pope actually may have helped you in South Carolina . Im asked that question so much. First, i was in state of shock because ive never seen the pope talk about something as unimportant as donald trump. I was like, the pope is talking about me . This cant be happening, is it good or bad . They said its bad. This was day before the election. I asked the pope is saying bad thing about me the day before the election . Realized that it had to do with illegal immigration. That he was opposed to my measures which is basically creating a border. And i came out very strongly that we want a border and the Mexican Government probably convinced him that donald trump was saying not nice things about the border. I think it worked out well. I dont think it was a positive, though. I think it was probably neutral. I dont think it was negative but could have been a tremendous negative. Turned out to be probably mutual. I dont think it was the pope is very nice, by the way. Yesterday the pope issued a very nice statement and i appreciated it. Dickerson well have to leave it there, mr. Trump. Thanks so much for being with us. Thank you very much. Dickerson we go now to nashville and senator marco rubio. Senator, youre saying that its now a threeman race. That means to get to the donald trump. Is that just going to happen or do you have to make that happen . You have to make that happen. But part of the dynamic up to the mid 30s to low 30s high 20s in most polls then 70 says were not voting for him. But theyre divided up. That five or seven people continues to narrow down going to make the race clearer and clear still have the then vote. There are people supporting donald trump that we believe we can win over as well. So it is a smaller race than it was last night. I think practically speaking it is down to three people who are still running full Scale National campaign. I have tremendous respect for governor carson i know hes going to stay in the race and john kasich is out there basically going to spend week in michigan make that his priority. Today alone well be in three states and continue to come pain everywhere. We feel really good about this coalescing. Of course anyone wants to join our effort they should go to our website marcorubio. Com. We need your help. Dickerson how are you going to take those voters away from donald trump. What is your argument . I think here is the argument ive seen it up close in 2010 i ran for the senate five years ago. Ive only been there five years but its been enough time to know the damage barack obama has done to this country. Im realistic, and optimistic about our future. A few things if we do them well have the greatest air rain our history. I think that is important. If i running to be president of the United States cant just tell people youre going to make America Great again, i think you need to begin exactly how youre going to do it policy wise. Were not going to win the general election with candidate that refuses to detail policy. Obviously donald still has time then we can have policy debate about whose ideas are better. I honestly believe that once people begin to understand whats at stake here that we have a chance here not just to make our country great but greater than its ever been. We have plan to do it. I that i is going to influence a lot of voters not to mention coalesce those maybe with someone else first. Dickerson you want mr. Trump to be more specific, offer more asking abut that for him for months. The polls show that voters seem to be flocking to him because hes the stronger candidate on issues of national security. Are people wrong about that . How do you convince them theyre not right to be for trump because hes stronger . Well, i think strong rhetoric and strong action are two separate things. Anyone can use tough words, anyone can go over the top say things that sound strong. But sounding strong is not enough. You have to know exactly how youre going to do it. If you look at some of the policies hes talked about, they would not make america stronger. His views on Vladimir Putin are troubling, i dont think hes fundamentally understands who he is or what hes trying to do. These are the kinds of things that i think in detail need to understand. When youre the commander in chief youre the commander in chief on day one. You dont get like sixmonth grace period. The world doesnt just stop, lets wait until the president catches up before we start challenging america. You got to know what youre doing on your very first day there. This is not an attack or anything that have nature, just want to be pad you have to start detailing some specific Public Policy and i dont think from this point forward in the campaign voters will be as tolerant of the lack of that as they have been up to now. Dickerson would you expect to see specific policy on . On everything. On health care. We all agree were going to repeal obamacare what but is it i. T. Going to be replaced with. Again, on issues of energy. How are we going to utilize our energy resources, what is the role of federal government in higher education. What kind of justices would you appoint to the Supreme Court not just because we have vacancy now but at least one or two potentially in the next four to eight years. Virtually every major issue that is before this country that is natural per view of the federal government, have some specificity of what youre going to do if you want to be president. Up to this point it hasnt been a huge factor but it will be. Let me say this, the democrats, neb would you husband about these things theyre going to eat our lunch in november. We have to at this timely have someone ready to go that can win because we cannot lose this election. They cannot be the next president. Dickerson last question on politics. Three contests, you have yet to win one. Is there a daneer that everybodys second choice . No, i dont think so. Because as i explained earlier when you have seven or eight people competing for the same chunk of votes its a lot of votes. But if you have sech or eight people its all segmented. Now that the race begins to narrow you have clear indication. As we look at this race we understood that this narrowing had to happen before the winner take all states that will begin in the middle of march. We feel good about the states were going into and process to win delegates. Were in good shape. Got to keep working hard. Dickerson thanks for being with us, senator marco rubio. Thank you. Dickerson next up from columbia, South Carolinas texas senator ted cruz. You said last night your expectations in South Carolina. Wasnt the expectation that you should have done better in South Carolina given that large share of conservatives in the state and very large share of those who self identified as evangelical christians . You know, john, if you look at the first three primaries we started in iowa where all of the media said we didnt have a chance, we couldnt win. We won overwhelming victory in iowa with a big margin. We went on to New Hampshire, all the media said a conservative could not compete in a moderate new england state. Finish in New Hampshire. Then we went to South Carolina. Where a week ago donald trump had a 20point dominating lead, ended up closing that gap tremendously and finishing with effectively tied for second place. And that combination, what that is done to the race is at this point weve seen the race, the field narrow dramatically and from is only one strong conservative who has a path to winning that is having the nationally and keying us up for nevada especially super tuesday, that was always our plan, do well in the first three states then compete and have very strong night. Were ideally positioned to do exactly that. Dickerson you made the case that youre the only candidate who can unite the diverse parts of the conservative coalition but when you look inside the exit polls, you do very well with those who identify as strongly conservative but you have trouble in the other areas. How are you going to solve that problem . One of the very encouraging things we saw in the exit polls we young people. We were in first place among young people in South Carolina. Its interesting because we also won young people in iowa and we took second among young people in New Hampshire. If you can stitch together that kind of coalition with young people bringing together conservatives and evangelicals and ill tell you in iowa we also won reagan democrats, working class voters. As you know, john, historically in order to have chance to win one of the first three states. There are only two people that have done that. Donald trump and me. And one of the things were seeing is across the country, there are a lot of republicans who think donald trump is not the right guy to go head to head with Hillary Clinton, that we probably lose that match up. That. Were seeing people come together behind our campaign because were the only campaign that has beaten donald trump and you cant beat donald trump from the left. You cant beat donald with a candidate who is supported amnesty. Donald wins that head to head. Head to head with me question beat donald trump by 16 points and so what were seeing, john, is incredible. People all over the country are going to tedcruz. Org, over 980,000 contribution we want a strong conservative. We want someone who can beat hillary and i beat hillary and donald sadly the polling shows doesnt. Dickerson let me ask you a in north carolina, they went for donald trump over you. Do you think that he he questioned your christianity during the course of the South Carolina campaign . Theres no doubt that both donald and marco got very personal, got very nasty. And both of them when you point to their records, they follow the same pattern, they scream liar, liar, they attack your character, as you know from the very beginning of this campaign nearly a year now, i have consistently refused to respond in kind. Im not going to impugn anyones integrity, not going to attack their character. In fact i will happily praise both donald trump and marco rubio as men who i admire, as people im not going to go personal with them. But i do think we should be focused on substance and record. If you want a candidate who opposes amnesty, who opposes citizenship for the 12 Million People here illegal loo im the only candidate who opposes that. If you want candidate who is led will lift the burdens on Small Businesses and bring back jobs, im the only candidate in the race with that proven record. If you want candidate to defend life and marriage and religious liberty and Second Amendment and appoint strong constitutionalists to the court. Thats why conservatives are uniting behind our campaign. If they want to continue with the attacks thats their prerogative. Well stay focused on the substance. I think that that the voters want and what they deserve. Dickerson the question of immigration and building a wall, you want the same thing. But hes had a lot of experience in the Business World executing, gettings things done in the businessman, what would you say to a voter who said, okay, you may share the same goals with donald trump on this, but you lack that experience of having executed the way he has in the private sector. Well, listen, i have joked more than once on the campaign trail that im going to build a wall. And i have somebody in mind to build it. Want to building contract or donald would be a strong contender for that. The question we have here is who is a leader on this issue. Back in 2013 when we were having the epic battle on amnesty, when marco rubio joined up with barack obama and harry reid to push amnesty i led the fight against it Standing Shoulder to shoulder with Jeff Sessions and steve king and millions of americans, donald trump was no where to be found. He was tweeting support for amnesty just couple of years ago even now if you ask donald he wants to give citizenship to the 12 Million People here illegally. He wants to deport them let them come right back in. If youre a hard working steel worker or truck driver, that drives down your wages, that takes away your jobs. I think we need to be fighting for the working member and women of the country not the money of new york interest. Well be back in a minute. You cant predict. The market. But at t.

Well, john, im talking to you from columbia, South Carolina, we have major rally, were not skipping over anything. But i think that after South Carolina we have 11 states, we stand
