'Trump without the baggage': GOP presidential hopeful takes dig at main rival in pivotal primary state

In a Republican presidential nomination race currently dominated by former President Donald Trump, Michigan businessman and long shot GOP White House candidate Perry Johnson says he’s "Trump without the baggage."

Johnson, who made a fortune through his successful companies in the quality control industry, described himself as "Yankee frugal" and touted in an interview Monday with Fox News in New Hampshire that "none of my companies have any debt. None of my companies have ever gone bankrupt."
