rubio, why? >> we're in a unique situation right now. instead of coalescing around the front-runner they're trying to go against the front-runner. they have made two bad assumptions during this race.

1900s in football, when you bet on the running game and knute rockne shows up with the forward pass. donald trump has invebted the forward pass here. the gop that wants to stop donald trump it seems
