Dr. Ben Carson defended his decision to endorse Donald Trump for president today.
“Some people have said, ‘well, why would you get behind a man like Donald Trump?'” Carson told reporters alongside Trump. “I’ve come to know Donald Trump over the last few years. He is actually a very intelligent man who cares deeply about America.”
“There are two different Donald Trumps. There’s the one you see on the stage, and there’s the one who’s very cerebral, sits there and considers things very carefully, you can have a very good conversation with him, and that’s the Donald Trump that you’re going to start seeing more and more of right now,” Carson said.
These are backhanded compliments at best. The Trump people must be wondering, “With friends like this, who needs Hillary?”
