These people need to take their crystal balls into the shop. They're not working.

Ah, now they want to “save us from ourselves.” Didn’t Hitler use a line like that? Anyway, Rothman clearly hasn’t seen the post-debate poll yet.

[libbylu]

That is the dude who left hotair. He is so wrong. You’d think they would have learned by now. Gee if I get a polling call I am going to lie and say Trump.

So, I presume that the author really thinks that the establishment choice of the dumbest Bush EVAH....will result in a Republican President?

Actually, could happen, since JEB is simply Hillary light....and only slightly less ugly to boot.

[libbylu]

BTW who would read this crap? Title says all.

Day ain't over yet.

Isnt Commentary some northeastern, tassel loafer Neocon rag?

Sure seems like it.

I don't think the final chapter has been written quite yet with respect to Trump. He has picked up over 200,000 supporters on Twitter since the beginning of the month, over 30,000 in the past 24 hours alone.

The other big gainers are Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina and Ted Cruz. So Trump appears to be having a positive effect in this race, considering that the MSM guns would be trained on our conservatives if he was not in this race to take the flak.

Perfect summation!

Their. Balls. Are. Not. Working. No. More.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

I really like Commentary Magazine and read it frequently. The author makes some good points about the GOPe not supporting Trump, but did not predict the increased poll number for Trump after the debate, so he’s full of it.

[nhwingut]

I think this guy Noah was at HotAir at one time. He’s an establishment to the core. He made AllahPundit sound like a Freeper.

Sadly, HotAir is now part of the Salem RINO propaganda network.

[867V309]

Trying to read this reminded me of trying to listed to Michael Mudhead on radio. He tries to drown you with words that don’t amount a pile of dust.

..the well of sympathy runs dry..

when we run out of gunpowder, wake me..

I’ll wail buckets for this po’ bastard.

[Lopeover]

Nope! Wrong-oh! Fox was responsible as the hosting network for setting the tone. This isn't about Trump it is about the uniparty, CoC and Marxist media wanting to pick our candidate. Fox had the opportunity of a lifetime to set the standard. Instead they lowered the bar to the MSNBC rung. So long Fox! So long Kelly Megyn, you bloody beach! We'll find a new home! You betcha! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

...more viral waste being spewed across the nation...

I can just see them in a huddle going, well that didn’t work, it seems nothing is working, what are we going to do...if he wins, we are on the street like bums....

LMAO....I just love it....

[Hostage]

> “There comes a time, however, when the case for the aggrieved Trump supporter ceases to be compelling, and the well of sympathy runs dry.”

Oui, Oui! Monsieur Rothman, I am in total accord Monsieur! It is a pity that our ...how do you say ...”well of the sympathy” is to run dry! You see there is a great triste ...eh.. soucier..eh...sadness that Le Donald must wait 16 mois ...eh ... months avant, before to take thee White Castle. Do you see how sad it is Monsieur?

Pardonnez moi pendant je crie sincerement!

These people need to take their crystal balls into the shop. They're not working.

This article is unmitigated claptrap. Your comment is very appropriate.

These people are desperate to make Trump go away so we can get to the main event: Bush v. Clinton, with Clinton winning.

To hell with that.

[MrEdd]

As far as I can tell, at least eighty percent of Trump’s support is support for closing the border. That’s an issue.

This may be an election where a crass populist with a bizarre concoction of positions that contradict each other (if given even a cursory glance) can win.

[COUNTrecount]

Fox news is doubling down by re broadcasting the debate at 8PM tonight.

Roger Aile$ must be a consummate gambler, he is risking losing more viewers and increasing ire over Megyn’s odious performance.
