Republican candidates pressure Donald Trump to release tax returns

Addressing a luncheon of Republican governors and donors in Washington on February 19, he warned that Donald Trump's increasingly likely nomination would be catastrophic, dooming the party in November.

He trails Trump in virtually all of the 11 states holding nominating contests on March 1, known as Super Tuesday. "It's awesome what's going on", he told NBC, calling his campaign a "movement". Haley who is rated very high across the nation and is seen as a potential vice presidential candidate asserted that Rubio is drawing a large number of supporters across the Super Tuesday States. And so that's why we've said Marco Rubio is the only one that can defeat Donald Trump.

The Trump-Rubio feud began at CNN's GOP debate in Houston Thursday when Rubio hammered Trump on immigration, health care, foreign policy and other issues. "I'm representing a lot of anger out there", he said on CNN. Seated at a long boardroom table at the Willard Hotel, he erupted in frustration over the state of the 2016 race, saying Mr. Trump's nomination would deeply wound the Republican Party.

Cruz on Super Tuesday: 'Texas is very, very important'
It's one of the reddest states in the country and a leader in fracking, which Sanders calls "a disaster for the planet". He is a successful person that, like me, isn't afraid to tell it like it is.

He declined to reveal his gross income or effective tax rate and didn't respond to a remark that the IRS says he can disclose his records, despite an audit, which Trump has cited for the delay. Trump says he's already shared his personal financial details in separate disclosure forms.

"Maybe that's what his tax returns show", Cruz said. Christie, who withdrew his own White House bid earlier this month, denied that he reversed course on Trump after promising New Hampshire Union Leader newspaper publisher Joe McQuaid that he would not endorse him after the billionaire won the state's February 9 primary election.

"It's ridiculous because I mean, look at these people, your best friend you may not know is Muslim or Jewish", she said. He said he didn't know anything about it and curtly said: "All right, I disavow, ok?"

Boris Nemtsov murder: Memorial march for opposition leader goes ahead in Moscow
Finland's premier was asked how these latest comments from Putin would affect the refugee situation on Finland's eastern border. Opposition activists have also been thwarted in their attempts to get the name of the bridge changed to Nemtsov Bridge.

He said Mr Rubio had a "fresh mouth" and a "little mouth... he goes bing, bing, bing, bing, bing, bing". "And he's going to have the passion to do it", Haley said, referring to the strong verbal dual unleashed by Rubio over the last few days against Trump.

Despite that concern, Cruz didn't balk when asked if he'd support Trump in a general election. Cruz asked. He claimed that Trump "explicitly supported" some gun control measures by former President Bill Clinton and that Rubio had "voted to ban guns in public parks" as a local official in West Miami. If he loses blacks by similar margins in the Southern states that vote Tuesday, Clinton would likely take a delegate lead hard for the Vermont senator to overcome. The person who wins the most elections on that day nearly always becomes the nominee of their political party. "And if we come together, if conservatives stand together, we're going to have a great night on Tuesday". There are two polls which show a almost tied race in Texas, but one of those, Survey USA, has a questionable poll sample.

Most states participating award delegates proportionally. Kasich is betting that his let's-get-along, pragmatic style will help him in Michigan's March 8 primary and a week later in Ohio, Illinois, Florida, Missouri and North Carolina.

Stand-up comedian and writer for the Daily Show Travon Free wrote dryly: 'Oprah had no idea she was Whoopi Goldberg either'. Tracy Morgan went back to his comedy sketch roots in one of the funniest moments of the 88th Academy Awards on Sunday.

He added: "You're asking me a question that I'm supposed to be talking about people that I know nothing about". Clinton picked up most of South Carolina's 53 delegates, winning 39 to Sanders' 14. Georgia, Texas and five other states south of the Mason-Dixon Line hold primaries on Tuesday, as do a range of other states from Alaska to Vermont. On Super Tuesday, 624 delegates are up for grabs among 12 states with 1,237 needed to win the Republican Presidential nomination. And a rules change March 15 make it easier for a state's victor to get all of its delegates.
