Morning Joe Pans Bill Clinton's 'Hatchet' Job on Bernie

Trump: In Iowa, 'I Sort of Just Went Through the Motions'
Donald Trump normally projects the image of a guy with only one gear: warp drive. But on today's Morning Joe, Trump made an interesting admission, saying that in Iowa, "I sort of just went through the motions a little bit."
