The candidates – Trump, Rubio, Ted Cruz, John Kasich and Ben Carson – met to debate in Houston five days prior to Super Tuesday, where hundreds of delegates will be awarded in primaries and caucuses.
It was only moments into the event before the back-and-forth began, and the argument between the two was quickly joined by Cruz. At one point in the night, the three shouted over each other for more than a minute as CNN moderator Wolf Blitzer tried to quiet them.
Here are some highlights from the debate:
Rubio: Without inheritance, Trump would be ‘selling watches’
Nobody likes you, Ted.
Rubio goes after Trump on immigration.
What kind of wall?
Is there a statute of limitations on lying?
