Totally agree.. you are right, Trump is showing up their lies and their false reality. That’s what the fight is about.

I’m listening to the first debate now and I’m noticing how easy it is to manipulate audience applause and reaction.

Plus first question was predicable — Trump’s not a “real” GOP or conservative.

Check. I made a crude joke about him thinking it’s cool to work on dead baby parts but just not on Saturday...

Listening to Lindsay Graham drone on right now. Who is he and why is he on stage at all? He seems to be messaging for the Elites who pay the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIL, just like his friend McCain. (”War is good” -Orwell)

You are right, this is a Drudge story or Rush story.

Carson’s trying to top Trump’s numbers before the start of the debate.

“He who is unfaithful in small things, will be unfaithful in big things...” http://biblehub.com/luke/16-10.htm

If Carson goes along with the fixing of his Facebook numbers, what other numbers — votes, polls, etc., — will he fix?

After I read that story in RD years ago, I was prepared to support him. After researching what he believes, that was it.

Yep. A nice man, but of pedestrian liberal instincts.

Where have I mentioned support of Trump?

My mistake for assuming.....sorry about that. But wow, look at the rest of the thread and the context the rest of the thread threw onto your post.

Context of the thread was the astroturfing going on on Carson’s social media.

Where is Trump in that?

Here’s the payoff, as predicted, from Carson’s Facebook page. They really ought to be called out on this BS:

“Dr. Ben Carson
7 hrs ·
Tonight, we accomplished everything we imagined. Dr. Carson showed America a different kind of leader. A leader that understands what you say is important – not how loud you scream it. America responded overwhelmingly. Tonight we gained over 300,000 new Facebook fans. More than Jeb Bush has in total. We gained more Twitter followers than anyone. On top of all of that, we raised over a million dollars in small donations.
In every metric that matters, Ben Carson won tonight.

Barry Bennett,
Carson Campaign Manager”

Yes, you don’t appear to understand how the GOPevil thinks

Maybe not. But if you wish to vote for someone based upon how many Twitter "followers" they have, be my guest.

You understand Andrew Breitbart’s famous quote about culture and politics, right?

Sorry, not being someone who fawns over his every utterance I don't have any of his sayings on tap.

I'm guessing "take your heart medicine" wasn't one, though.

Wow.. thanks noob.

What I'm doing is refusing to accept you as an authority on anything.

That's a problem, huh?

The GOPe machine needs to be called out on this — also see my last concern troll post here. I think they troll harmful posts to their interests and can’t have the final post on a thread be like yours. FR infested with GOPe trolls...

In their honor - Yes someone needs to really pick up this story of how Ben Carson cheated his Facebook numbers before the debate!!!!

Why are you making "concern troll" posts?

Humble gunner can’t take the hint and is trying to prevent the last post on this thread be about BEN CARSON FAKING HIS FACEBOOK NUMBERS LAST NIGHT BEFORE THE DEBATE

Yeah, nothing fishy about this...

He got all that support during the afternoon and evening, yet wound up at 4% in the Drudge poll while Trump was winning over 50% of the same poll.

Carson should be ashamed of himself for allowing his media concerns to be gamed like that, to make a false impression.

I would also like to call attention to his Twitter account, which yesterday had post times (since posting) that were not in sequence.

Various places in his tweets had times like, 14m, 12m , 17m, 24m, 9m...

That shouldn’t be happening, even on the same page of printout on screen.

Something was very fishy about his media yesterday.

They fear Trump, because he is no one’s fool and has seen their kind all his life.

"Seen their kind"? He's been one of them, by his own bragging, his whole career.

Our political system is always for sale, now one of the buyers wants to become one of the sellers. And this is supposed to represent improvement?
