You’re welcome, Onyx!

Trump, Cruz, and Paul - the only three in double digits on the Drudge poll, as of now.

Trump still leading by a country mile.

Notice how they didn’t ask Dr. Carson (Johns F***ING Hopkins pediatric neurosurgeon) about life of the mother exception, or anything on abortion?

Had women in MY focus group. All think Rosie is a fat pig. Didn’t think Trump hurt himself at all. Saw rises from Cruz, Carson, Rubio and Huckster.

I predict FOX will be scratching their heads wondering why Trump’s numbers haven’t fallen.

My take: Trump won because he handled the obvious attacks and take-downs well. His no nonsense approach and not politically correct atcha' attitude is a winner. He handed MK the punch back. The viewers did Not like the way he was handled and it will be a net gain for him.

Cruz actually won the debate as debate with his impeccable answers and great closing remarks.

The sleeper close behind Cruz was Carson. Cool and calm as usual with great sense of humor and great closing remarks.

Paul close behind Carson. Made some great points and comes across like a fighter. . like Trump.

The others all did okay. . I liked some of Huckabee's comments. .

The most Presidential? Cruz hands down. . without a doubt. Wouldn't you just love to listen to his Mind for eights years?

(Now wrap your head around this. . compare each person on stage tonight with our current POTUS.)

The Donald way ahead in the Drudge Debate Poll Results at 39%. Cruz second at 14%.

The one who gained the most tonight? Donald Trump - The way he was attacked and obviously set up to make Jeb look good totally backfired. And, oh Jeb, your memorized answers from the known questions didn't look and sound good.

...3rd party candidate. That terrifies me.

So..Hillary, Trump, or Republican Establishment? Not so scary really.

Trump was set up from the start. The very first question of the debate was aimed clearly at Trump, not to the other candidates as it was posed. Fox tried hard to knock Trump out in the first round.

I'm happy he said raised his hand.

Trump wasn’t in good form tonight....He couldn’t answer questions specifically

Nonsense. Trump answered all question honestly.

On past Democrat donations and leanings: I'm from New York, the most Democrat city in the World.

On donating to Hillary, and what did you get for it: I told her to come to my wedding and she came to my wedding.

On Atlantic City casino bankruptcy fleecing lenders: these lenders are not babies, they new what they were doing. I had the sense to get out a decade ago (and save the lenders avoided future losses). Caesar's Casino just went bankrupt, they all went bankrupt, just ask Chris Christie.

What did he not answer honestly?

They certainly didn't like asking Cruz many questions.

She is harping about how she *knows* “women will be offended”.

And stupid women will believe her and become “offended”, even if they agreed with Trump as he spoke.

Far too often, members of my gender embarrass me.

Just yesterday, a fellow biker chick [no swooning “need-a-daddy-figure”, we] said “Trump cannot understand the problems of the poor as he’s always been rich.”

So I said “On the other hand, he is so fecking rich, he *cannot be bought*.”

A few seconds passed as this epiphany took hold and she said “That is a good point.”

Didn’t watch the debate but there is no doubt after just 5 minutes of the jelly show the intended narrative for the next news cycle is going to be Trump being anti women/ Misogynist.

I will watch the full debate later, but there is no doubt they are spinning up the propaganda machine as much as possible for that to be the story for the next news cycle.

Cruz was infinitely better than Trump so what does that say about Drudge’s poll?

I like her show but she sounded like an idiot tonight. Her first question was stupid and useless.

That chart deserves its own thread, in my ever so humble opinion.
