Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump broke a key rule in the Fox presidential debates last week, according to a new report by CNN.
Trump consulted with his campaign manager during the first commercial break at Thursday night's Republican debate. It's a violation of ground rules from Fox News. The rules state that candidates would not be allowed to have contact with their campaigns, rival campaign
sources told CNNMoney.
While that exchange was the clearest violation of debate rules to date, sources told CNN, it followed a pattern: At multiple debates, Trump has consulted with his campaign manager Corey Lewandowski backstage even though it was expressly forbidden by the networks.
