Ben Carson: Ask Trump His Views On Marriage And 'Abnormal Relationships'

Submitted by Miranda Blue on Monday, 2/1/2016 12:57 pm

Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson said on Friday that GOP frontrunner Donald Trump could prove his conservatism by answering questions like, “What are your feelings on marriage?” and, “What constitutes a normal relationships or is an abnormal relationship?” Carson has previously referred to LGBT people as “a few people who perhaps are abnormal.” Newsmax TV host Steve Malzberg asked Carson on Friday if he was “concerned about Donald Trump’s lack of a conservative record.” “I think maybe people put too much emphasis on labels,” Carson responded, adding that interviewers should instead “delve deeply into what he believes.” “Why not examine him?” Carson said. “Say, ‘What is your feeling about life? When does life begin? What are your feelings about marriage? What constitutes a normal relationships or is an abnormal relationship?’ You know, question him on these things and see what he says.”

Ben Carson? And you're running for president? Do tell.

But anyway, asking Trump a direct question is pretty useless because he'll just go off and say whatever he pleases. If he does inadvertently answer the question, he'll just disavow whatever he said today if he's in a hostile environment tomorrow.
