> Transgenders in the military? THAT is what Bret Baier thinks is important?
Yes it is, and it’s not a huge surprise either. What’s disturbing is that the RNC permitted him to moderate the event.
He also comes off as a flaming homosexual.
> Fox News Channel may have jumped the shark tonight.
There’s no ambiguity on the question - Fox News disqualified itself from being considered a serious news company tonight. They are now the “Reality” TV version of news - shallow, empty, and fake.
In the debate itself, Christie clearly had it worse than anyone else on stage, but his night was nowhere near as bad as Fox News’ night.
We see the media want to destroy Trump.
Yea well they gave him up for dead weeks ago for this, that and the other.
First fair post debate polling, the Frank Luntz focus group of Republicans HATED Trump. At least 2/3 of those watching changed from Trump supporters and became adamant Trump critics.
Typical ccomments: Pompous Casino owner, wouldn’t answer questions, thin skinned, all anger but no substance, all about him - not about us, and those were the nice comments.
We may like Trump..... but tonight the voters didn’t.
He is paralyzed. Diving accident when a young man/boy. He needs help to breathe. Went to college when he was recovering. Really a miracle of a man, if one ignores his politics.
It will be interesting to see if Carson’s numbers rise. He does need more exposure. I’ll support him as long as he’s a candidate.
Carson’s closing remarks.
these three stooges WORKED ON THIS? are they kidding?
It looked like a jr high debate moderators squad.
Amaturish.
I agree.
I’d have a debate of only (in no particular order):
Trump
Walker
Carson
Cruz
Fiorina
And pick POTUS and VP from that group. The rest are fodder, has-beens and never weres.
Me too! And in that order.
Wallace just admitted he tried to set up trump with Kasich.
[Hume saying trump did fine is Hume trying to play down trump.]
I do not foresee TRUMP giving FOX NEWS any interviews in the near future. FOX NEWS is FIRED.
That group was coached.
Just my opinion.
Look...Trump wasn’t in good form tonight....He couldn’t answer questions specifically....and he dodged....expectations were high for Trump tonight and he just didn’t reach high enough.
Maybe this has to do with his not understanding political debates....so we shall see...but he’s got to up his game...instead he went backward.
Your post is the one with the most! (in my opinion) ~ lyby
Winners:
1: People who got their eyes opened to the reality that their beloved ‘conservative TV channel is as hard left as MSNBC
2: Trump who probably just sealed his electorial victory by standing like a man and giving as he got. His liberal history will not matter.
3: Cruz because he is presidential and proved it despite Fox trying to shun him in public:
Losers: Everyone but Carson who held his own.
Funny you should say that. The other night my husband thought that Rick Perry looked like Moe Green in the dark rimmed glasses.
Luntz’s Dunces are always stupid. “Derp it’s two weeks before the presidential election and i don’t know if I’m Democrat or Republican derp”
I just cannot believe Trump’s numbers! We are so desperate. Don’t get me wrong: I like him. No one owns Trump but Trump. But he’s not presidential material. Can you imagine who his VP would be?
