I don't have a problem with Carson saying it sucks that other candidates were saying he dropped out. Is he partially to blame for going back to FL? Sure. Is CNN partially to blame? Sure. Did the other candidates take advantage of CNN's bewildering credibility? Absolutely, and I think it is perfectly proper for Carson to complain about it.
I am used to politicians making hyperbolic comparisons to things like "Benghazi." In the age of Trump it didn't even get a rise out of me.
I never saw Carson as a realistic candidate before, because he has never held statewide office...in fact he has never been elected to any local office, so perhaps there is no disillusionment for me.
But after all the wild things he has already said this one seems kind of blah.
