“Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz opened up a new line of attack on Donald Trump, targeting his involvement in Trump University, a for-profit, non-licensed now defunct institution which triggered lawsuits from individuals who claimed they were defrauded by him, as well as a suit alleging fraud from New York attorney general Eric Schneiderman.” WellsIndividualLinesNew YorkTrumpInstitutionsUniversityProfitSuitsFraudInvolvementAttorneyEricCruzMarcosLawsuit Author:Chris Hayes

“As the great naturalist Charles Darwin saw clearly, individual and collective interests often coincide, as in the invisible hand narrative. But he also saw that in many other cases, interests at the two levels are squarely in conflict, and that in those cases, individual interests generally trump. That simple observation suggests that market failure is often the result not of insufficient competition (the traditional charge from social critics on the Left), but of the very logic of competition itself.” TwoHandsIndividualLeftSocialInterestSimpleLevelsResultsCasesSawsTrumpConflictLogicCompetitionCriticsInvisibleTraditionalObservationNarrativeCollectivesInsufficientNaturalistInvisible HandMarket Failure Author:Bob Frank
“I think you have to take the man at his word [Donald Trump]. Is kind of an equal-opportunity insulter. He started by calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals. He moved on to denigrating John McCain's heroism during the Vietnam War. He has gone after people with disabilities. He has said Muslims should be kept out of our country. He certainly has gone after individual women in the media, in the political arena.” PeopleThinkingMenShouldKindSaidWarCountryPoliticalOpportunityIndividualGoneMediaHe ManTrumpCallingEqualMovedCriminalsOur CountryImmigrantsDisabilityVietnamHeroismArenaMexicanVietnam WarMccainMoved OnEqual OpportunityPeople With Disabilities Author:Hillary Clinton

“Nobody was talking about illegal immigration when Donald Trump entered this campaign. He was attacked from day one for putting the whole issue of the violence that is derived from certain individuals that come into this country illegally on the table. . . He is hearing from all sides. But I promise you, he is a decisive leader. He will stand on the principles that have underpinned his commitment to end illegal immigration in this country. And that's what people will learn more about in the days ahead.” PeopleEndsCountryWholeCertainIndividualSidesTalkingLeaderPrinciplesIssuesViolenceTrumpPromiseCommitmentTablesHearingCampaignsImmigrationIllegalI PromiseIllegal Immigration Author:Mike Pence
“People with long memories and a vivid sense of the past have an immediate understanding of politicians like Donald Trump.

“Even though a definite article is supposed to bring something into focus, Donald Trump uses it in a very general way. It's seen by many observers as a kind of racial distancing. Often using that article seems unnecessary. [But] it is serving some function, which is to represent a group collectively rather than as individuals.” WayKindUseSeemsIndividualFocusGroupsTrumpFunctionServingArticlesUnnecessaryDefiniteObservers Author:Ben Zimmer
