The criteria for participating in Frank’s “Fascinating” panel must have been an IQ in the mid 80’s.

This is not a joke.

The GODDAMNED RNC IS USING GOEBBELS LIKE PROPAGANDA TO ATTACK OUTSIDERS.

They had better pray Trump doesn’t win.

As I was saying: competence, confidence and Presidential demeanor— folks are innately drawn to a leader.

We’ll leave the glitz to the showman.

No. You see, I don't number queer lovers among my acquaintances.

Gop-E News is worse than CNN and MSNBC. They are Globalist trash.

This was pretty disappointing

Attack Trump right out of the gate, the question about supporting the GOP candidate was a calculated attack against Trump, and it was obvious he was pissed but kept his temper in check.

Cruz was almost completely left out but did really well in spite of it.

Carson didn’t surprise me a bit, I’ve known for a long time he’s one smart cookie. I just don’t think the voters will even consider another black president yet. Not after Obama.

Huckabee did better than I expected. Always liked him but don’t think he’s the president we need right now.

Rand Paul made him self look sophomoric. Christie looked fairly petty with his jab at Paul too. Paul was right on that point, if the govt wants to listen in on phone calls, get a warrant.

Nothing swayed my opinion tonight, I still think Trump/Cruz is our best bet.

I’ll not encourage Trump after this debate...to continue as he did tonight....he’s not stepping up...maybe he can’t. I wanted to see his professional side...there’s no reason he could not have shown this.

Yeah sure you liberal. I know the media will try to rig the polls for a while but the truth will come out and Trump will win

They are STILL beating up on Trump.

I did think it was fair to ask him over and over about his past positions. I wanted the answer to those questions. But he didn’t hurt himself on that.

I think Trump’s performance tonight disappointed a lot of us. The silver lining to that could be that the support he loses, could very well go to Cruz.

Wow thanks for the link. What Kelly did was despicable. And the hatred and venom in her eyes and mouth when the audience applauded for Trump. Kelly is disgusting.

“Frank Luntz focus group is killing Trump.”

This phony, stacked panel is part of the plan to get rid of Trump once and for all, tonite.

Trump was Trump... he did great considering they had him in their target for the night... Trump took it better than I would have. They started out on him.. the very first question was aimed at him to score points for Bret and for Fox... It was in bad taste and used to make news.

Trump is the news of the day, every day.. and Fox wanted to score, using Trump. They are now talking about what they did. They also said he made a remark about the audience.. that remark was to the 3 moderators.. not the audience. They overrate themselves and then get Luntz on there to prove their thinking.

It’s just as bad as the other networks!

The only thing you missed is that ANY ONE with the exception of stumbler Bush on the stage or the ones from earlier today would be kryptonite to Hillary Clinton. Rubio said it best. We have a lot of top notch candidates.

Huckabee did the best. Trump hurt himself as he was under constant attack, but did recover several times. Cruz shined BOTH times he was allowed to talk.

I was watching and I thought Trump sucked. Cruz was excellent. Carson closed great. Rubio was also excellent. Walker was OK. Kasich OK. Rand Paul and Christie should get a room. Huck a good guy but he is not gonna be the nominee.
