Picking up right where they left off, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio barked out fresh insults at each other in a Republican presidential debate Thursday night that also featured a crude sexual reference from Trump - and a healthy dose of policy, too.
Cruz and Rubio, who earlier had devoted considerable debate time to throwing sharp elbows at one another, were relentless in training their fire on Trump.
Rubio and Cruz pressed Trump aggressively on his conservative credentials, his business practices and shifting policy positions.
Trump, in short order, acknowledged his willingness to deal and be flexible when it suits his needs.
