2/25 GOP debate thread
Anyone watching tonight? Only 30 minutes in and there are already so many jabs.
Re: 2/25 GOP debate thread
Yes but he is being his typical self and I don't think it will affect his polls. They have mentioned a LOT about how he has written checks to dem politicians. Rubio was badgering him to hear what his plan for replacing aca with. Brought up his support for PP. Poor Carson had barely gotten to speak.
I knew you'd cave!
Poor Carson. I felt bad he hardly spoke at all. I don't think cnn was fair to Carson or kasich. They focused on the main 3
No not his voice. His face is what gets me.
As much as I hate to say it, the fact that David Duke was a former KKK member is the biggest thing he has that brought him notoriety and fame. He's only held a political office once. As a state senator. That's it! And that was almost 25 years ago. Though he's unsuccessfully run for everything from Congress to POTUS (multiple times).
Yet he can still pull national headlines, on occasion, and people in other states know who he is.
He actually ran first to try and be the Democratic candidate, then became a Republican, and ran again to try and be the Republican candidate. Though different presidential election years.
He was never even close for either. I'm surprised it damaged the GOP. Oohhh. I just read on Wikipedia that the Republican party tried to block him from running under their party. Something like that.
I only vaguely remember him running and it actually gave me a bad impression of Louisiana, not the GOP, lol. But that was when I still lived in CA and was six years before I moved here.
Ugggghhh! The debates are so frustrating now! Trump's face makes me want to throw my laptop (since I don't have cable to watch the debate). All he does is attack ad hominem and no one seems to understand that he doesn't have any real arguments!
Also, I think Rubio had his best debate yet last night. Of course it won't affect the poll numbers. The other dumb thing is that people have been voting in the Super Tuesday states for weeks already because they have mail in ballots. Trump will probably win every state and we'll be doomed. Trump may win the presidential election, but the GOP has already lost.
Wait wait wait. WTF. Chris Christie just endorsed Trump...
I think he's trying to be the VP.
He has said multiple times that he would act "different" as President.
Ummm...that's still a major problem-he basically announced he has zero integrity. Vote for Trump and you'll have no idea what you are getting...
And Christie's endorsement?! What the @#$%
I may be casting my first ever democratic vote in a presidential election.
The sane Republicans don't stand a chance in this electionm and on the other side we have two left wing nutters, one who IS a untrustworthy criminal. I just cannot vote for Hillary who did not care to protect our national security as SOS and now she wants a raise. lmao! Nooooo just NO FREAKIN WAYYYY!
I am still voting R but this is just insane!
I think it's his strategy and it's working. He's too much of a blow hard for my blood. He is definitely a smart man. Maybe he's right and would know how to win for our country. He's much softer than he lets on.
