Trump vs. Rand on Tanking

Trump says he will drop out if he tanks in the polls.

 


Rand Paul, who is tanking, says he is still in, according to his campaign. Real Clear Politics reports:

Rand Paul raised just $2.5 million for his presidential bid over the last three months—a sum that not only pales in comparison to the high double-digit hauls of his rivals, but amounts to roughly a third of what he brought in the previous quarter.

The Kentucky libertarian has slipped so far in the polls—the RCP average shows him at 2.3 percent—that he may not qualify for the prime-time debate stage later this month....

Spokesman Sergio Gor said the campaign has added new staff over the past week.

“Our campaign is in for the long haul and Senator Paul's message of limited government and individual liberty will continue to resonate with primary voters,” Gor said in a statement.
