Audience stacked with ringers: Donor Class, lobbyists, Professional Political Class. Best dirty trick since Cruz’s last one; biggest debate ambush since Aug 6 and Megyn Kelly.

The biggest applause was for Bush and Rubio. They were clapping for amnesty and liberalism.

Very uniparty.

How do politicians become millionaires on $175,000 per year salary? I think that questions is part-and-parcel of the overall situation in which FR posters support the professional/career oligarchs sucking off the govt teat, while trash talking the man who doesn’t suck the govt teat but instead PRODUCES.

It’s like going to a party uninvited. Trump is fearless though, so an antagonistic audience merely highlights his strength.

The applause was as fake and phony as Moochelle Obama’s hair styles.

TV scanned the audience and they were just sitting there and the audio was yelling and clapping, and the sound never changed always the same...totally recorded...made me LOL.

The Network was out to make the Republicans look bad...I was not happy with this debate at all...

Just a note...I have always like Major Garrett, and I still do..nice guy, good reporter...the moderator with fake hair like Moochelle was not the best one we have ever seen, he encouraged the anger we were seeing...

WAKE UP AMERICA...WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER AND WE NEED TO GET RID OF PROFESSIONAL POLITICIAN THAT MAKE POLITICS A CAREER...

JEB comes from a family of politicians it is the only life he knows, and he loves himself...I can't stand him...
JMO..

ok off my soap box...stay warm folks...2 degrees here in SW PA.

I noticed that Rubio had stacked the audience.

I think it is ironic that Rubio praised Scalia for being a strict constructionist; Rubio is not eligible to be president because his parents were not citizens when he was born.

Thanks for the report. You stay warm. It has warmed up here in Southern California, so the nights aren’t so bad now.

Of course that’s all relative. It only got down in the 30s a few times here. Still, that is nippy enough for me taste.

Attack Trump, and you get both barrels. Think our enemies around the world are watching? You bet they are.

I think Trump really needs to address this thing about supporters. Surely he has supporters, even if they are the general public! This just isn’t right morally to disinclude supporters simply because they aren’t mega donors of the GOP.

It just shows what low-lifes the GOP consists of. In my mind, that translates into votes. Those who are dyed in the wool GOP candidates shouldn’t be voted for since they’re less than marginal candidates anyway. If that’s who they want to be associated with, then don’t vote for them.

Boycott.

That simple.

If it blows the Republican Party to smithereens, then it’s over due anyway, and a well earned position to be in.

There are 300+ million of us, and only ??? of them? The dollars they want are in OUR pockets folks! We don’t HAVE to turn them over to them. It’s called “We the PEOPLE”.

Isn’t it ironic how the worst president in our entire history as a nation succeeded in waking up the people?

If they’re still donating to the RNC, or working for the RNC, what does that tell you? Conservatives? LOL Not hardly.

As for the in-state guests, you can bet your sweet bippie they’re as “moderate” as the others.

In 2020, I recommend the “Conservative” candidates set up their own debates and tell the RNC / GOPe neophytes to go screw off.

Before the debate was over Trump had made the “donor class” tone down their boos.
