O'Malley finds way to get news coverage (Hint: "Trump")

"Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley (D)'s campaign said Friday it "speaks volumes" that real-estate magnate Donald Trump is the Republican Party's front-runner, after Trump called O'Malley a "disgusting, little, weak, pathetic baby" in an interview set to air over the weekend.
Trump directed the disparaging remarks at the Democratic presidential candidate in lieu of O'Malley's apology last month for saying, "All lives matter," after being interrupted by
demonstrators during a conference.

And then he apologized like a little baby, like a disgusting, little, weak, pathetic baby. And that’s the problem with our country,” Trump said during an interview with Jeanine Pirro aired on "Fox and Friends" Friday.

How can you apologize when you say black lives matter, which is true. White lives matter, which is true. All lives [matter], which is true. And then they get angry because you said white and all … we don’t want you to mention that. What’s he need to apologize for?” Trump said, according to Politico.

In response, O'Malley's campaign said it was "not interested in engaging in a race to the bottom with Mr. Trump." Lis Smith, O'Malley's deputy campaign manager, pointed out that O'Malley had appeared earlier this week at Trump's hotel in Las Vegas with workers in an attempt to highlight their push to unionize." yahoo
