Trump could have done better. He needs to prepare more and take these things seriously. It wouldn’t be that hard for him, he just has to adjust his mind-set a bit going in to these things. I know he doesn’t like canned responses, but he should use them at least 50% of the time during debates.
Actually, I am not for him as my first choice (Cruz), but since he is apparently the beneficiary of a wide spread sense of outrage against the status quo political system, he should stay outside the fray of historical campaign practice as much as possible IMO.
In truth, the status quo political system is corrupt all the way from the MSM and the establishment candidates working within the context of an election campaign process that is so twisted, contorted and false it isn’t funny. They represent nothing about which many out here in drive by are concerned with.
DIRECTLY to the people - screw the media, screw the RNC, screw the other RINO candidates. If he must show up at a debate, then so be it. But he should brush off the nip-dog attacks like a Great Dane being bothered - with indifference and mild disdain.
