rawstory.com

Donald Trump made controversial comments about Liz Cheney during an interview with Tucker Carlson in Arizona, suggesting she would understand war better if she faced "guns trained on her face." He criticized her as a "radical war hawk." While many commentators condemned Trump's remarks, GOP strategist Brad Todd attempted to defend him, arguing that Trump was highlighting differences in foreign policy. Todd noted that Trump's rhetoric could hurt his standing in polls, despite him leading in key states. Todd acknowledged Trump's poor choice of words but suggested that his position in the polls reflects dissatisfaction with the current administration. He claimed Trump could be ahead by more points if he focused on issues like the economy instead.
