— TMZ (@TMZ) May 13, 2015
Even before the Republican presidential candidates have had a chance to slug it out on the debate stage, 2016 hopeful Ben Carson is already looking rougher than Manny Pacquiao.
Carson lost his front tooth at a campaign stop in South Carolina over the weekend, TMZ reported.
“Toothgate” occurred while he was eating scrambled eggs, grits, and a ham biscuit at Tommy’s Country Ham House in Greenville, S.C. ahead of a speech.
But nothing could stop the good doctor.
He put the tooth in his pocket and carried on, delivering an “impassioned speech,” according to The Hill.
