Trump goes "Full Trump" in Iowa, GOP Candidates React

Donald Trump's often outlandish behavior has led to jokes about what it would mean if he went “Full Trump.” Last night in Iowa, he may have established a new standard. He ridiculed the so-called “redemption” story of Dr. Ben Carson, who says he found God after his attempt to stab another young man went wrong.

Donald Trump's often outlandish behavior has led to jokes about what it would mean if he went “Full Trump.” Last night in Iowa, he may have established a new standard. He ridiculed the so-called “redemption” story of Dr. Ben Carson, who says he found God after his attempt to stab another young man went wrong.

He then acted out the alleged stabbing scene, stepping to the side of the podium so the crowd could see his belt, which he juggled up and down to suggest that Carson's story is unbelievable. "How stupid are the people of Iowa? How stupid are the people of the country to believe this crap?" Dana Milbank, who writes on politics for the Washington Post, says other Republican candidates were quick to respond.
