Republican Sen. Mark Kirk's campaign fired back at Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Friday morning after the Manhattan billionaire said Kirk was "not doing so well" in the Illinois Senate race.
Kirk's campaign manager, Kevin Artl, told Business Insider in a statement that the Illinois Republican was far outperforming Trump in the state.
"The simple fact is that the Illinois Senate race is a statistical tie and Sen. Kirk is outperforming Donald Trump by a net of 13 points," he said.

Meh, Kirk is a stupid liberal, but probably the best we can hope for from Illinois.

Obviously, Trump wont carry Illinois. Never in doubt.
But this anti-Trump RINO is in a statistical tie, and if he thinks he can gain by joining with Clinton in opposing Trump, he will find the evaporation of GOP voters without the crossover of democrat voters.
Yeah Kirk, keep being anti-GOP and see what happens next.

seems a silly comment to say Kirk is out preforming Trump when it’s comparing on many different levels two very different situations.

Why even get involved in that? Where’s the damn discipline?!?! Why isn’t Trump pounding Hillary and O for 12 hours a day?

My best guess: Donald is working on building some “Alpha Dog” momentum. Trump has to not just get over the top, he has to get over the top ready to crack a whip and nobody surprised that he is.

We all know Kirk is a RINO fool. Ignore him and focus on the points you raised
