Republicans in the convention hall Tuesday night cheered as the former neurosurgeon speculated about a Democratic-Satanic alliance.CLEVELAND It took Ben Carson just a few short minutes to move away from the teleprompter and toward the devil at the Quickens Loans Arena Tuesday.
About half an hour after New Jersey Governor and fellow Trump primary victim Chris Christie staged a mock witch trial for Hillary Clinton, Carson strolled to the podium, beaming from ear to ear. Im not politically correct, Carson announced. And I hate political correctness.
From there, he abandoned his prepared remarks to talk about Saul Alinsky, the Democratic socialist writer who met with Hillary Clinton while she was in college and whos become a bugaboo of the right. Alinsky, said Carsonwhos been talking about this for years nowdedicated his book Rules for Radicals to Lucifer. Connect the dots.
Im bringing it to peoples attention, Carson explained to The Daily Beast last month, in the context of defending Hillary Clintons Methodist faith from Trumps attacks on it. Anyone who is associated with Alinsky is someone that they need to know about.
