Her rival Bernie Sanders campaigns in North Carolina and illinois. John dickerson is in washington. Good morning. Good morning, charlie. Is this issue of conduct and behavior at trump rallies have any impact on this campaign . Is it a growing issue or not . Well, it certainly had an impact on the campaign in terms of the tone and it was striking last night that in the debate, none of his rivals really picked up on this. I mean, donald trump at his rallies, several that ive attended and others as well, talks about when these protesters pop up, he talks about how he would like to hit them, how in the old days they would have been taken out on a stretcher. This doesnt seem out of step with comments like that, someone being suckerpunched. But what we also saw in the debate, challengers didnt want to touch this which was a sign they dont want to do anything to offend trump voters. Everybody held their fire last night, john dickerson. It was certainly a kinder, gentler debate. Who do you think it helped and who do you think it hurt . A boxing match was interrupted by a president ial debate. Youve always had a situation where john kasich and ted cruz didnt want to get in the fight. Marco rubio has been taking it to donald trump and this is a way in which donald trump really sets the tone as he has in so many other ways in the republican debate. He was on his best behavior talking about unity and saying we are all in this together. Marco rubio said explicitly and recognized his attacks on donald trump have had a negative impact on him. So everybody had their own reasons for behaving themselves. As far as trump goes, though, john, i mean, is this him just sort of letting the clock run out, so to speak . I think that is part of it. But also part of it is that he wants to kind of tamp down this talk from other parts of the Republican Party that he is a threat to the Republican Party. He wants to show that he can be a unifier. Also, if you read his book the art of the deal, and listen to him talk about deal making, he talks about a period of bluster and brag doesh yo and then bringing everybody together. This is part of the trump playbook. How much ground did marco rubio have to make up in florida . Polls shows he has made up a little ground but still down by close to ten points. He still has got some work to do. Thanks, john. John will talk with john kasich this sunday on face the nation on cbs. In the next hour, marco rubio will joining us. Ahead on cbs this morning.
