MARIA BARTIROMO (GUEST HOST): Donald Trump seems to be setting himself up, over and over again. to just run away with the narrative, Dr. Carson. And you know, the media is doing what they want to do, but at the same time, is there a way that his advisors can resonate with him, for him to stick to the issues and to stop saying things that inflame people?



BEN CARSON: Well, when you looked at that segment, where he made those comments, you know, it was -- no one got upset, and no one seemed to think that he was indicating that somebody should go out and assassinate someone. That is a far, far stretch and a clear attempt to demonize him.



And I think it's ridiculous, and tomorrow it will be something else and they will dissect every word. Here's what we really need to be thinking about, what is destroying America? What is the debt doing to the generations coming behind us?
