    • I'm a little behind. Chris Wallace made Trump look absolutely foolish when they were talking about cutting government spending. Any time he is forced to discuss things in the realm of reality, his "ideas" crumble.

      Kasich as usual appears presidential and the best candidate in either party. It is just awful he is not going to win.

        I want to hear more about Trump University. Specifically, their basketball team. :bracketology:

                Republicans haven't just managed to get the wrong guy. Of the men on the stage, we got the order exactly backwards.

                        He looked sweaty, petty, unstable, and slimy. I think most of his supporters will not be swayed but I hope a small percentage will and anyone who was considering him and watched was repelled.

                            He and Rubio were tag teaming. I swear there is an official cease fire.

                              Yeah, I don't like Cruz but he annihilated Trump tonight...but it won't make a difference. Trumps supporters probably still believe he can save $300b by cutting waste from at $78b program.

                              Rubio is really bad as the mean attack dog, but he's brilliant when discussing specific policy.

                              I don't think Trump answered a single question tonight with a specific answer other than to discuss his Trump Uninversity lawsuit or to rattle off random names of foreign policy wonks that he thinks will join his team.

                                Doubles down is right; I was surprised his advisers haven't told him dial it back a bit. The question was phrased very interestingly--how would he expect to do those things given that a statement has been signed by a lot of officers saying they wouldn't follow such orders because they're unlawful, or something to that effect. Trump responded saying that he is and has always been strong leader and that, "trust me" (he uses that phrases a lot), they'll do what he says. I would think that response wouldn't sit well at all with most in the military.

                                Meanwhile, on MSNBC, O'Donnell was interviewing the NY AG about the Trump University fraud lawsuit against Trump personally. They've got a very strong case and this will likely hurt Trump, it's not too late.
