“CNN recently ran a sort of roundup article on why some conservatives say that Trump talk is fascist. The roundup included this tweet from Iowa Republican radio host, very influential guy in Iowa Republican caucuses, Steve Deace. Quote, "If [Barack] Obama proposed the same religion registry as Trump, every conservative in the country would call it what it is - creeping fascism."” IfsCountryGuyTrumpRepublicanConservativeRadioBarackRanArticlesHostFascismInfluentialTweetFascistsCnnIowaCaucus Author:Rachel Maddow
“Donald Trump, the Republican frontrunner, bypassed the debate before the Iowa caucuses because he objected to the participation of moderator Megyn Kelly as well a press release defending her.Beyond the Trump tantrum, we wondered if this had something bigger to say about the state of the media and politics and how politics is practiced today.” IfsWellsStatesTodayMediaTrumpRepublicanBiggerPressesDebateReleaseParticipationIowaTantrumsCaucusPress Release Author:Michel Martin
“I had crazy experience when I was talking to voters at the Nevada caucus the other night in Vegas. Voter after voter after voter, these are Republican primary voters, caucus goers, saying I don`t listen to Fox anymore. I can`t trust Fox anymore. I`m over them. And these were all [Donald] Trump supporters who he had successfully sort of pried their trust away from the thing they have been trusting for years.” YearsHas BeensI CanNightTalkingCrazyTrumpRepublicanPrimariesVotersFoxesSupporterVegasNevadaCaucus Author:Donald Trump
“If they can get 15 or higher, it will be a very bad night for House Speaker Paul Ryan. Ryan twisted himself into a pretzel by endorsing but not always supporting Donald Trump. Now, he's facing the prospect of a slimmer majority, with fewer moderates. Conservative members in the Freedom Caucus have already sent warning shots threatening Ryan's tenure as speaker.” IfsNightHouseTrumpHigherMembersShotsMajorityConservativeWarningFewerSpeakersThreateningModeratesTwistedTenureCaucusEndorsingPretzelsBad Night Author:Mara Liasson
“Paul Ryan is speaker of the house and that - that is up to members of the caucus. Donald Trump is not running for a congressman from Manhattan where he would actually vote on the speaker.
