Last week was a pivotal time for the four remaining GOP candidates in the 2016 presidential race. Kicking off the week, Super Tuesday revealed that Donald Trump still is the front-runner, winning a whopping seven states. Cruz was able to win over his home state of Texas as well as Oklahoma while Rubio pulled through in Minnesota. The week continued with Thursday’s GOP Fox News debate, consisting of Rubio and Trump trading punches, and Cruz and Kasich standing by. The week’s conclusion came on Super Saturday, during which Cruz and Trump each earned two state victories. Here are some of the week’s most OMG moments!
1. Cruz: "I understand the folks who are supporting Donald right now. You're angry. You're angry at Washington, and he uses angry rhetoric. But for 40 years, Donald has been part of the corruption in Washington that you're angry about."
Whoa, Cruz immediately associates anger and corruption with Trump’s campaign. Shots fired.
2. Trump: "Look at those hands. Are they small hands? And [Marco Rubio] referred to my hands: 'If they're small, something else must be small.' I guarantee you there's no problem. I guarantee it."
Did he really just say that? C’mon, Trump.
3. Rubio: "We are not going to turn over the conservative movement or the party of Lincoln or Reagan... to someone whose positions are not conservative, to someone who last week defended Planned Parenthood for 30 seconds on a debate stage, to someone... who thinks the nuclear triad is a rock band from the 1980s."
Well, I guess that's one way to put it.
4. Cruz: "Donald Trump, in 2008, wrote four checks to elect Hillary Clinton as president."
Oh, OK. Setting it straight, Ted.
5. Megyn Kelly: "Mr. Trump. Hi."
Donald Trump: "Nice to be with you, Megyn. You're looking well."
So uncomfortable. Wow.
6. Chris Wallace: "Mr. Trump, a policy question for you, sir."
Marco Rubio: "Let's see if he answers it."
Donald Trump: "I will. Don't worry about it, little Marco, I will."
Marco Rubio: "OK, well, let's hear it, big Donald."
Donald Trump: "Don't worry about it, little Marco, I will."
Chris Wallace: "Gentleman. You've got to do better than this."
Chris Wallace calls out the nominees for being children. LOL.
7. Kasich: "Let's stop fighting."
Mr. K. took on the role as mediator. Did he succeed? Not really -- the bickering continued.
8. Cruz: "I don't think the people of America are interested in a bunch of bickering schoolchildren."
Yea … but, Ted, you’ve been involved in the bickering too.
9. Ted Cruz: "Breathe, Donald. Breathe."
Donald Trump: "I am, Ted."
Marco Rubio: "When they're done with the yoga, can I answer a question?"
Ted Cruz: "I really hope that we can't see yoga on this stage."
Marco Rubio: "Well, he's very flexible, so you never know."
This just got weird. Funny and clever… but weird.
10. Rubio: “Two weeks from tonight, right here in Florida, we are going to send the message loud and clear that the party of Lincoln and Reagan and the presidency of the United States will never be held by a con artist.”
Despite his disappointing Super Tuesday run, Rubio maintains the faith. And the attacks on Trump.
11. Trump: “I think it’s time for Marco to clean the deck, and I say that respectfully.”
During his press conference in Florida, Trump said he wants to face Ted “one-on-one.” Game on.
12. On his way to a make CPAC speech, Rubio stops to greet staff of the Gaylord Convention Center. He tells them, “My dad used to do this.” He also mentions how “this is real work, not running for president.”
Plot twist: Finally, a pleasant OMG moment. It was a nice change from the insults and vulgarities that were thrown around last week.
