Did Ben Carson just pull back the curtain on these candidate one-on-ones ...

the cable "news" shows are running?

In defending trump's "jail the women" solution to abortion, Carson reportedly said: "I don't think he (trump) was warned that that question was coming ... I don't think he had time to really think about (his answer)."

{Note: This OP is not about HRC, DWS, the DNC or any of this site's favorite boogeymen.}

women should be punished if abortion were illegal. It's asinine anyway, but the truth is that ReTHUGs are already punishing women while abortion is fugging legal. All the attacks against Planned Parenthood, closing down Abortion Clinics, Vaginal probes and defunding women's health are severe punishment.

Carson is still lost in his daze. Why even get involved in trying to defend Trump's "punish women" foolishness?

as, seemingly, everything on DU boils down to the corruption of HRC, DWS, the DNC or Democrats (that are insufficiently on board with another candidate).

pretty well. That darn lame stream media didn't warn him that they might ask about an important issue.
