And Trump suggested wiping away some environmental regulations to boost energy production, saying America has “got the oil, it’s got the gas. We have everything. The only thing we don’t have is smart people leading our country.”

It doesn’t make any of them bad,” Mathis said. “Maybe they just don’t get along, and that’s OK.”Weissert reported from Washington and Krisher reported from Detroit.
