Republican Presidental Debate
My favorite part was when Donald Trump said he had a great temperament
It is quite stupid to be talking about other's looks but only Trump would stoop that low. These two words sum him up pretty well- proud and rude. 
And the comment he made about Rand Paul's looks too. I thought it was so ridiculous that Trump should be talking about people's looks because a) it's rude and unkind and has no place in a presidental debate and b) because he is by far more ugly than any of the others.
Anyways, Fiorina's response to him was perfect.

Seeing as we have another GOP debate behind us, bumping this for discussion...
I didn't watch all of it, but the first 45 minutes at least. A couple things that stuck out...
From his opening comments on his weaknesses, Donald Trump remained a true comic. I never laughed so hard in my life.
Ted Cruz nailed the moderators pretty hard. #Ouch
Rubio did an astounding job of disarming Jeb's accusations. o_0

Ronald Frump's words might be hilarious but the fact that there are a great number of people out there supporting him is actually terrifying. If he can't even run his business, how on earth is anyone expecting him to do anything but run the US into the ground?

Donald Trump is a very successful business man not just in real estate... He own Miss America and Miss Universe. I wish I had been able to watch the debate, but I couldn't.

As yes, that's why his companies have filed for bankruptcies 4 different times. I'm sure he considers himself very successful. Oh wait, he owns a bunch of beauty pageants? My apologies, that changes everything.Blitz wrote:Donald Trump is a very successful business man not just in real estate...
I don't care what he owns or any semblance of success he has had. He's a disgusting racist hypocrite and I want him no where near any position of power.꿈. 희망. 전진.
Well, he's in the Billion now. His base is in real estate mostly. I don't like him either. Anyway, Ben Carson is leading in the polls now.

But I did hear that he is going down in the polls. Hopefully people can choose sense when they actually settle down for the final vote.

Donald Trump hasn't really said anything I'd disagree with. Sure, he does offend some people, but his actual political stance is pretty solid.
He's pro life.
He's against gay marriage and says it should be a "state issue".
He wants to legalize marijuana and use tax revenue to fund drug education. I think this is a fantastic idea. People are going to smoke weed whether it's legal or not. If it's legal I think the government would be able to control it more to prevent it from being abused. Putting the money towards drug education is also a great idea.
He wants to teach more "comprehensive" education in schools.
He wants to nuke North Korea (a bit ambitious).
He wants to build a wall to keep illegal immigrants out.
He wants to raise taxes on border trade.
He stands by the second amendment when it comes to guns.
He wants to get rid of Obamacare.
He wants to focus on defeating ISIS.
He wants to open more job opportunities for the unemployed.
Everyone can probably find a lot of fault in Donald Trump, but I just feel like everyone overeacts about him and hates him too much.

In this past debate, I was very impressed with Marco Rubio, pleasantly surprised by the performances of Chris Christie and Ted Cruz, and somewhat underwhelmed by Ben Carson (he didn't say anything wrong, nor did he make himself stand out). Clearly, America is in a bit of a quandary, since 2016 is being billed as "the year of the outsider", and yet most people (including Carson himself) admit that they cannot picture either of the two leading non-politicians actually being President.
As a side note, what do you all think of the recent revelations about Ben Carson's past?

How do you know which revelations are false Blitz? No specifics were given.

Because, I keep up with Carson on a day to day bases. I read all of his articles, and the ones against him.

So all biographical facts reported about Carson the last few days have been false?

Yes, actually. The Carson campaign is getting quite annoyed.
