Donald Trump's political genius is his ability to control the news cycle and thereby prolong his months-long status as the Republican front-runner. In part, he does this by continually attacking and mocking his rivals for the nomination, and as Super Tuesday has approached, Florida Senator Marco Rubio is Trump's latest victim.
Of late, however, Rubio has turned to Trump's strategy. In Thursday's CNN debate, the Florida senator delivered a rapid-fire string of attacks on Trump, which he followed with a Dallas rally on Friday where he suggested that Trump had wet his pants during the debate, and repeatedly labeled him a “con artist.”
