Trump says GOP is 'party of common sense' during contentious Bloomberg interview

Former President Trump said the Republican Party is "the party of common sense" Tuesday during a contentious interview with Bloomberg News in Chicago. 

Trump sat for an interview with Bloomberg News’ editor-in-chief John Micklethwait at the Economic Club of Chicago. The two discussed Trump’s plans for the economy in a potential second term during a heated interview that lasted nearly an hour. 

Micklethwait spoke about the economy to start, but later got into the state of the presidential race, asking the former president which state he believed was most critical to deciding the election.
