Christie on terrorism; Bush: Trump's claim of cheering Muslims on 9/11 "just wrong"
What the 2016 candidates are saying:
Chris Christie on 9/11 and terrorism
"I sat at home over and over again trying to call [Mary Pat] and not finding her. And as it got near the time to pick up my children at school -- our children -- at school, I started to think about these things. If I don't hear from her, what am I going to tell the kids when they ask about mom? Because so many of the children at their school had parents that worked in lower Manhattan, that the school called us and told us they had informed them of the attack. So they were going to ask about their mom as soon as they got to the car. So I started to think about what kind of life was I going to have without my best friend? And what kind of single father was I going to be -- to three young children? Those thoughts replicated over and over and over again, tens of thousands of times where I live...
"...I fear that this administration and many parts of this country have forgotten. I can't forget. Because terrorism is not theoretical to me. Not theoretical. It is real, and I see it in eyes of people in my state every day and loss is significant and never goes away. I would love to govern in a world as I wish it was. I don't. Real leaders have to govern in the world as it really is. And I wish the president would enter with us into that world." -- speech at Council on Foreign Relations, Washington, DC
Jeb Bush's reaction to Trump's claim that American Muslims cheered 9/11 attacks
"I don't recall that. And I was kind of engaged as governor of the state of Florida focused on my duties as governor. There wasn't any cheering. That would have been on television. That would have been recorded. This is just wrong.
"There were -- what I remember was a lot of peaceful Muslims that were disheartened and aggrieved and sad, and angry just as every other American was as well. We've got to get beyond the divide and focus on what the real issue is. The real issue is there are people who have been radicalized. Who view their religion as an ideology and are organizing to destroy us. To attack us. To put the black flag of ISIS in places where it doesn't belong. And that should be our focus, not this broad-brush attack on people that are as American as anybody else." -- to reporters gathered at the Beacon restaurant in Spartanburg, South Carolina
