Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse is concerned that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump seems to admire how President Obama has maneuvered around Congress.
Sasse says he understands Trump’s criticism of Washington has won him a lot of support in the presidential race, but Sasse says Trump’s solutions seem to always point back to him. . .

Ben Sasse says the celebrity status of Trump has helped him breeze through the Republican primary process.
Sasse says it appears the media is in love with Trump. . .

Sasse says public opinion polls indicate that while Trump has very loyal followers, if other Republican candidates would drop out of the race, their supporters would go to candidates other than Trump.
