Luntz On Trump’s Debate Performance: ‘I Saw The Destruction Of A Presidential Campaign'
CBS Washington DC ^ | 8/7/15 | CBS Washington DC

Posted on 08/09/2015 3:12:45 PM PDT by jimbo123

Republican strategist Frank Luntz came down hard on Donald Trump’s Republican presidential debate performance, calling it a “destruction of a candidacy.”

The CBS News contributor explained to “CBS This Morning” why Trump did not do well with the post-debate focus group he conducted.

“What do you say when you won’t guarantee to support the Republican nominee, when you call women some pretty horrific names, when you insult the moderator of the debate, when you don’t answer questions specifically, when you can’t even explain why you even went bankrupt. I have to tell you, this was an amazing debate performance. Not amazing because it was effective, amazing because I saw the destruction of a presidential campaign over those two hours. It really was remarkable,” Luntz said Friday.

I hope this personal battle with Trump is worth if for Luntz. Any objectivity/credibility he had is gone.

This not about how primary voters see Trump. The real question is in a national poll how small or how big is the percentage of those who say: “I’ll definitely not vote for Trump.” If that percentage is large, then this fiasco must end and we coalesce around Ted Cruz.

We simply cannot risk another Justice Kagan; Kennedy, Ginsburg, Sotomayor; or Breyer. Trust we can all agree on this.

Except Trump did not insult Megyn Kelly at the debate. Not even remotely. Funny he didn’t notice Jeb Bush was pretty much a zero at the debate.
