in 2017/Top Headlines by

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, brushing aside any recent claims of civility, has equated Ben Carson‘s childhood “pathological temper” to the illness of a child molester, questioned his religious awakening and berated voters who support him. “How stupid are the people of Iowa?” declared Trump during a rally at Iowa Central Community College. “How stupid are the people of the country to believe this crap?” For more than an hour and a half Thursday night, the billionaire real estate mogul…

in The Bay and the 'Burg/Top Headlines by

Overnight returns give Fox Business Network’s prime-time GOP presidential debate showing a 8.9 rating among households and 13.5 million viewers in prime-time.
