Announcer this portion of cbs this morning sponsored by toyota. Lets go places. Welcome to cbs this morning. Donald trump is facing worldwide condemnation for saying mulsslims from entering the United States by trump is defiant and hitting back. He tweeted last night, wow, what day. So many foolish people that refuse to acknowledge the tremendous danger and uncertainty of certain people coming into u. S. The people trump call foolish include his president ial opponents and leaders of both parties and the press. Major garrett is in washington with more. Reporter for months now the Republican Party thought its worse night nair wasmare was a donnedald trump run to the white house. After watching his frontrunner ignore for suggesting america ban muslims, the gop is discovering having trump in the party could be a nightmare too. Donald trump defended what many do you regret your ban on muslims, which some people think is unamerican. Not at all. We have to do the right thing. Somebody in this country has to say what is right. Are you a bigot . Not at all. Probably the least of anybody youve ever met. Reporter the Top Republicans in congress who studiously invoiceavoid commentsing on the president ial came down down hard. This is not conservatism. Its not what this party stands for and more importantly not what this country stands for. This is inconsistent with american values. Reporter ben carson and marco rubio joined the chorus. We do not discriminate on people based on religion. That is constitutional. Thats in the first amendment. I would say to have a religious test would violate the constitution. Reporter ted cruz, a harvard trained lawyer surging in iowa refused to say whether trumps i disagree with that proposal. I like donald trump. A lot of our friends here have encouraged me to criticize and attack donald trump. Im not interested in doing so. Reporter jeb bush was asked to promise not to back trump if he game the gop nominee. I can guarantee you, donald trump is not going to be the nominee. Reporter White House Press secretary josh earnest said trump and the gop are tied together unless trumps rivals refuse to support him as the nominee. The question now is about the rest of the Republican Party and whether or not they are going to be drag into the dust into history with him. Reporter despite all of this criticism republicans in congress say they will still vote for trump if he becomes the gop nominee. In an interview with bloomberg, Vice President joe biden called trumps idea a dangerous brew and said if he is the republican nominee, Hillary Clinton wins in a walk. Charlie . Thanks, major. Face the nation moderator and cbs news political director John Dickerson is with us along with our nancy cordes who have traveling the campaign. Good morning. Good morning. John, does this simply deepen the people that are already supporting him, making them more fervent or add new supporters within his campaign for the republican nomination . I think there is a core group of Trump Supporters we have seen is unshakeable. They support him. The more he gets involved in the controversy the tighter they cling to him because the greatest think they like about him they think he says others do not and he speaks to truth to them. Sometimes he gets his facts wrong and doesnt matter to them. He speaks a deeper truth. When he gets attacked is able to support his view. In previous instances he has gotten in trouble it is going to wall him off in terms of his ability to get a larger share of the vote. He has got the trump voters, but he is making himself that much more difficult to get any other kind of voters. Nancy, all of those republicans are now speaking out. Can they stop donald trump . They cant. With Republican Leaders or donors are hatching a plan to bring down donald trump because everything they have tried has failed and they will say very openly we have out of ideas. This is a real problem for Senate Republicans. There are seven Senate Republicans who are up for reelection in states that president obama won twice and republicans really fear that if donald trump is the nominee those seats are gone. Any evidence so far its hurting the Republican Party . Yes. Because republicans cant plan for running their reelection campaigns. They know that if donald trump is at the top of the ticket, they are going to have to try in many ways to distance themselves from the nominee, because he alienates hispanics and women. They are sort of in a Holding Pattern watching to see if he gets the nomination and then they have to change up their strategy. One data point that was not lost on donald trump was this new poll that 68 of his supporters would vote for him if he departed the gop and ran as an independent. That is a real possibility. That core group im talking about very sticky voters. They stay with donald trump and talking about with the senators running the Republican Party and others was articulated in a memo leaked last week from the committee that is involved in trying to reelect the senators. On one hand donald trump is a misguided missile and worry about the thing happening this week. He would Say Something outrageous and every republican would have to say do you agree with it or not . On the other hand, he is bringing in new voters and tapping into an anger of a lot of voters who may not sign up with what he is saying but feel finally here is somebody saying something with conviction. Didnt he sign a pledge not to run as a thirdparty . You can get out of contract. If you can get out of a constitution, you can get out of a contract you may have signed. Republicans have lost five of the six president ial races in terms of the popular vote. We know you still get elected by electoral vote. What did they find about what the next republican nominee need to do in order to win . They found that the next needs to appeal to all minorities and needs to create a bigger tent. They couldnt have anticipated that donald trump would wade into the race the way he did and mess up their best laid plans and its dragging the contenders to the right. The only thing to stop donald trump is to lose a primary. Which means he has to have an alternative and part of the dynamic we are seeing here too many other alternative candidates which means the nontrump votes gets split. When you look at the alternatives, they have condemned him but nobody is coming out and speaking loud and proud for the alternative world view, giving a long, strong speech that says here is why donald trump is wrong about american values, about the security situation. Lindsey graham is the only one who has said more than condemning things and articulates the danger of this and makes the alternative argument. You cant beat something with nothing. There is no alternative out there who is really being as strong an advocate for their for his world view. When the time comes will you support the nominee the answer seems to be, yep. The answer absolutely is yes, no matter how many bad things they say about him they would support him as the nominee. They dont want to alienate their voters. Frank luntz brought some voters and we will find out why they said and why they respond to trumps idea. That is ahead on cbs this morning.
