Fighting back is one thing...and we all like it.
But he needs to comport himself with class. He is showing VERY thin skin.
The problem is that he had Kelly on the ropes. She was getting HAMMERED for her debate theatrics...he just couldn’t let it go.
I heard she didn’t hit Jeb too hard...
Maybe she did exaggerate Trump’s side...she mocked Cruz and God too.
The difference, as you say, is class and who could handle it.
Trump can not
Isn’t this EXACTLY our problem?? I agree, Fiorina looked fantastic, especially when she scared Kris Tingle spitless. And I thought that Ricky Ricardo looked very good in the debate, very winsome and JFK-ish. And even Huckabee surprised me at how good he looked.
They always look good - but then what do they do when they are elected?? Carly has a track record, Rubio has a track record, Huckabee has a track record, and I don’t think any of these have demonstrated any desire or ability to restore our country, no matter what they may say at the moment.
IMHO, only 2 guys up there have actually demonstrated anything: Cruz and Walker. I am a Cruz guy 100%, but I respect what Walker has done and will vote for him if he is the nominee.
YEs, but the moderators had an agenda...they asked about Trump in the first debate.
But, we know that they are biased...Trump needs to be careful. Respond, but let them hang themselves...
Who cares? Megyn Kelly is a POS bimbo posing as a news journalist. I couldn’t stand her from the moment I saw her barely disguising her glee in 2012 as they announced Mitt had lost to Obama.
He actually won that exchange. The audience laughed when he said that “poor woman” was Rosie.
I mean, geesh Megyn, who searched for this particular material? Rosie had it coming. At least FOX could have tried to find someone we could feel very sorry for. LOL
She made herself look bad in that exchange and I think she knew it. Her material was very weak.
She also had the most condescending question of the night about candidates hearing from God. It was despicable. Cruz did okay with it, but he should have gone full Newt and thrown it back in her face. You don't always have to be nice, on that one she deserved a full Newt (or Trump).
Trump handled some of it well, some of it poorly, he will likely learn, the guy is no dummie. He has not been knocked out by this, not at all. His comments about us not having time for her pc were good. His joke about Rosie was good. His comment about bringing illegal immigration as a main point of debate was good.
He's not going away.
Oh, I'm still a Cruz guy, he's my fave by far.
Thanks for posting that, I didn’t think I could think less of MK, I was wrong. It was despicable of her to use that against Trump.
later.
Mark Steyn called Carly & Co., “the kids’ table debate”.
It’s like the warm-up band. Who cares? It’s just noise.
Check out the Post I did this morning on Trump’s “bleeding” comment. You would think that I announced that I was the anti-Christ. Talk about “attack the messenger”.....
Maybe she thought that O’Donnell, who is a fat slob, was one to be pitied...who knows.
Is she even relevant anymore?
I was a bit confused on the question for Jeb...I thought someone said it was his grandfather who was on the board? I thought Jeb was actually the one.
That was a dumb question for Cruz, but unlike you, I think he handled it GREAT. This answer got huge responses.
BTW, did you or anyone else hear in the first debate when Perry was talking...I swear he said President Ronald RAVEN.
Some notes on Carly (who I want to remain in the race attacking Hillary constantly until the end, or until Hillary drops out):
Daughter of a law school professor and an abstract artist...
Her BA's are in philosophy and medieval history... ahem
She dropped out of Law School after ONE semester (note the father above)...
She worked as a temp agency secretary during undergrad, then as a real estate broker for 6 months, then taught English in Italy for a year (when her first husband moved there for his job)...
Married in 1977, gets her Masters in Marketing and joins AT&T as a management trainee in 1980, divorces in 1984...
Got all that? By the time she was 30, she had not held a job for more than a year, and her educational fields are all over the place, and she already has a divorce under her belt... not exactly Presidential background thus far... now watch this...
1985, marries Mr Fiorina... who happens to be an exec at AT&T. Not tough to guess how her marriage ended and how she got married less than a year later...
Now, married to an AT&T exec, watch her career path suddenly change:
1995, led corporate operations for the spinoff from AT&T of Lucent...
1996, appointed president of Lucent's consumer products business...
1997, appointed chair of Lucent's consumer communications joint venture with Philips...
1998, named group president for the global service provider business at Lucent...
1999, named chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard Company
(received a larger signing offer than any of her predecessors, including: $65 million in stock, a $3 million signing bonus, a $1 million annual salary (plus a $1.25–3.75 million annual bonus), $36,000 in mortgage assistance)
2001, merger with Compaq...
2003, requests for voluntary pay cuts to prevent layoffs (subsequently followed by the largest layoffs in HP's history)...
2005, forced to resign from HP...
2006, USAToday names her Worst Tech CEO of all-time
Overcame breast cancer, and then took it to Barbara Boxer during her 2009 campaign against her. Made a classic bad ad ("demon sheep"), and lost... but her line "I have to say that after chemotherapy, Barbara Boxer just isn't that scary anymore" was also a classic.
She is THE best person to go after Hillary from now until NOV 2016... but she also should not be the nominee nor named the VP.
Actually no, that is why is was a stupid question for Kelly to ask.
I saw it...
Don’t worry, you are in good company if the Leftist Trump spinners are on here attacking you.
People who are honest know that Trump is thin skinned and meant something else. But, they HAVE to defend him...they are invested.
Don’t worry...I appreciate your honesty :-)
I believe that it was pointed out to you that that same thread had been posted over and over.
If Fox and the GOPe are pushing her you had better stand back and examine very carefully.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I did not know they were. Got any proof of that. If FOX was “pushing” her, she’d have been on the stage for the late Debate, not on the JV team. If the GOPe was supporting her, where are the endorsements and the $$$?
I was addressing that to TNMOUTH in ref. to how viciously I was attacked by the Trump people for posting it. Besides, it gotten 200 hits in less than 2 hours. A lot of folks must not have read the earlier ones.
