Ben Carson warns of 'tremendous carnage and death' if we don't elect Donald Trump
If Americans don't pick Donald Trump as the nation's 45th president, they'd better have their life jackets handy, retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson warned on Fox & Friends Monday. Unless Republicans rally around their presumptive nominee, Carson said, the country is headed straight off of a 167-foot-high waterfall. "America, right now, is like a cruise ship that is about to go off of Niagara Falls with tremendous carnage and death," Carson said. "What you have to do first is recognize the problem, stop the ship, turn it around, and then move in the other direction."
Anyone considering a third-party run, Carson warned, needs to give it up and back Trump. "A quarter of a century ago, another Clinton was running for the White House and it was the entrance of a third-party candidate, Ross Perot, that made it possible for him to win," Carson said. "Now, wouldn't it be ironic if the same thing happened this time? Wouldn't we be smart to learn from things that have happened in the past?"
