He gave no quarter to Cruz. However, he wasn’t rude and he told the audience that Cruz was his guest and do not boo him.
Cruz answered every question greatly and got applause by the end.
Colbert is a liberal, but not a complete idiot. He had to know Cruz would be a tough one.
Good for Trump.
Donald was very very supportive of Ted Cruz on tonight’s show and complimented Ted on his performance.
Colbert acted, and I’m not saying this just because, he truly acted like a buffoon
It was embarrassing
Embarassing that he has an audience
He was nasty snarky unintelligent and Trump can not possibly have to suffer that level of stupidity What was trump supposed to do?
Does Colbert and his circle think that Trump is an idiot?
Obama may have gone to Harvard, but he did not go to Wharton. One doesn’t get through Wharton and then, without scandal and corruption, build a business empire being a spoiled silly man
They think he just inherited his father’s money and he’s running around bragging. They have no imagination
His father was worth 200 million. That’s just not 9 billion. Can they count?
The ultimate test: If DT didn’t exist, would we ever have heard of Fred Trump? Probably not. Fred was good, but not THAT good.
Not that funny. The way things are going, who ever gains the White House in 2017 will inherit such a disaster it may be beyond saving.
Good. the man is brilliant. His IQ was way too much for colbert to handle.
Though i have a high IQ and it’s been pretty worthless :)
I would like to see more people drop out but I think half a dozen are in it to the end.
To be fair, I think any reasonably smart person being handed 200 million and a top of the line business education should be expected to do well.
I’m in favor of smart people in charge of things. Donald is abrasive, and I think he demeans himself by his bravado, but it’s who he is. I wouldn’t want to hang out with him, but that’s not really necessary to run the country right.
I mean I’d love a shot at what I could do with that kind of start. I did all right myself, but nothing like that.
I’m from New Jersey. Many years ago I dated a lawyer, BA Harvard, Law Degree Columbia. He once said, “I like Jersey girls, they have the sophistication of NY girls without the meanness.” You got to be mean to play in NY.
To be fair, 200,000,000.00 is easy to turn into 9,000,000,000.00?
You think that a guy who can do that within the law over time, not a stroke of luck but careful planning, is not worthy of more respect from public figures?
You are wasting my time
I’m so glad I read “Art of the Deal” 30 years ago. I am much more prosperous having read it than I would be if I had never seen the book.
Oh please. People think 200,000,000 is just like 9,000,000,000. They can’t do simple calculations It’s silly
I am for Cruz all the way. Trump I have to say I just don't know about. Will Trump uphold Conservative principles?
I didn’t say it was easy. I said for a studied smart person, schooled in business at the top, it’s certainly feasible. With a personality like his? Absolutely. I’ve seen many smart friends from my younger age do exceptionally well from modest beginnings. My family went from oilfield trash to oilfield executive in a few generations. There are people like the owner of Landry’s Seafood and Joe’s Crab Shack who started as Galveston semi-mafia and restaurateurs to multi-million dollar chain owners with casinos in Las Vegas. With a good running start, you can make it good in America.
I thought Fallon’s spot with Trump was a bit better than Colbert, but still funny stuff.
Stop. We are talking about whether these people are worthy of respect
Stay focused. Quit wasting my time
It was embarrassingly vapid silly disrespectful and frighteningly awkward
Fallon was hilarious It was FANTASTIC
Forbes said Trump had a negative networth in 1990 of $900 milion. That is $900 million less than zero. So he did go from 0 to $10 billion.
