Political pundits are wondering if Donald Trump had a Howard Dean-like political meltdown moment last night, when, in a 95-minute speech in Iowa, the Republican presidential candidate cursed numerous times and asked “How stupid are the people of Iowa?” in reference to their support of Ben Carson.
Candidates this week also weighed in on campus unrest, and Democrats are preparing for another debate Saturday night. Jesse Holland of the Associated Press and Julie Mason of The Press Pool on SiriusXM join Here & Now’s Jeremy Hobson and Indira Lakshmanan to discuss the week in presidential campaign politics.
