So over a third of the original audience lost all interest after the first set.

10 million is less than 15 million, right?

This could go down as one of the WORST group of folks running for a party’s nomination in history.

Every day is like a MAD TV clip.

They clinched their vote after the first “debate” with hundreds of trillions of FREE STUFF vote buying. Why watch a second time? The only reason would be to see if they up the ante.

“”So over a third of the original audience lost all interest after the first set.””

They were probably all watching the Bachelorette.

They need to dress up in superhero costumes. That will surely draw more ratings.

I’ve been watching politics for a long time.
This is the worst field of candidates I’ve ever seen.
I hope they all stay in and the clown show continues until next June.

How can it be called a ‘debate’ when they all think the same thing and say the same things?

To have a ‘debate’ you need at least two sets of opinions.

In this clown show there is only one opinion..............

LOL

yeah man just WOW!!

Their past indiscretions alone are INSANE.

Their views SO out of the mainstream!!

Things is, they always do that and then shoot to the center once they win the primary.

Trump doesn’t play that game.

He will HIT THEM HARD about what they said now during the debates with him

The first time I saw Tim Ryan, I thought this guy might give us a problem. He is good looking, good voice, THOUGHT he hounded reasonable, but never heard him speak for any length of time.

Well, last night this doofus is the only one standing and no hand over his heart. The only one.

What a fruitcake. Another minus one.

Back when it was between Hillary and Obama, I though that very thing. I didn’t think they could get lower in their candidates. I was way wrong.
