Freshman Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) says it’s time for Donald Trump to start talking policy or just drop out of the presidential race.

In a string of tweets Monday night after the Iowa caucus, Sasse said the real headline from Iowa was how poorly Trump performed despite polls heading into Iowa boasting he had a strong lead in the state.

This is not the first time Sasse has questioned Trump’s credentials. The Nebraska senator traveled to Iowa last week to encourage Iowans to cast ballots against Trump.

  1. Mention Drumpf’s little hands again. That should really set him off.

    And how trashy and spent his wife looked on the trail in Iowa…hate to pick on her, but she is “his” after all.

    Ben’s as much of a caricature of a human being about as much as Trump is.

  4. “Let’s hear it for Donald Trump. Give him a hand! He needs it.”

  5. Of course, by Sasse’s “ineluctable” logic, then Marco Rubio should immediately drop out also since he was rejected by over 3/4 of the caucus participants.

    What a Saase.
