Once again, Trump speaks the truth that none dare speak.
Gee, you think if he had said it, he would have owned it as soon as it was mentioned along the lines of: “Yes, I said it. I’m not walking it back it. Here’s why...”
If he wasn’t sure, he could have said, “Frankly, I can’t immediately recall if I said that. But let’s say I did. It’s still true and here’s why...”
Oh, well. He’s no worse than all the other politicians that insist they didn’t say something despite being on the record of saying exactly that.

Big deal.
I forgive Trump...sheesh what nonsense.
It’s almost like Trump doesn’t even know what is in his own policy statements.
BFD, It’s pretty well true. They tried to make this whole debate about gotcha. The candidates simply weren’t having it. At one time or another Trump has “owned” several of the candidates, but they didn’t bring that up.
I took the question to be that Trump called Zuckerberg Rubio’s “private secretary.” Trump definitely never said that.
By saying that he didn’t say it, it gets even more exposure. Genius.
I dont think it matters if someone isn’t sure about Rubio or Zuckerberg being honest or good guys.
I guess Trump has not memorized all 2 million words on his web sites, his books, and his speeches. Was this a debate or a memory test? The moderators were trying to start a fight between Rubio & Trump. I am happy Trump did not take the bait.
The critical thing I am looking for is which issues are the candidates pushing. The 11-30 million illegals and the Wall are priority #1 issue for me. If that problem is not addresses urgently, there will be so many democrat voters in near future, we can just forget about any conservative issues. Trump is the only one using words “Deport all Illegals FIRST”.
H-1B ping
Trump:
a) lied about whether he had attacked Zuckerberg, and
b) took one position on H-1B visas on his website (where he does attack Zuckerberg) and an entirely different position on H-1B visas in the debate tonight.
Typical politician.
The bigger deal for me was when Rubio said something along the lines of “companies abusing the system should be punished.”
Hey Senator! Have you been following what’s been going on with Disney in your home state!?

The fact that he NOW supports a massive increase in H-1B visas - just like Zuckerberg, Rubio, and Ted Cruz - is a huge and shocking admission.
“I was not at all critical of him [Rubio]. I was not at all. In fact, frankly, he's complaining about the fact that we're losing some of the most talented people. They go to Harvard. They go to Yale. They go to Princeton. They come from another country and they're immediately sent out. I am all in favor of keeping these talented people here so they can go to work in Silicon Valley...”
“So I have nothing at all critical of him [Rubio].”
That is pure bunk.
Almost all of the elite foreign students at elite American universities come from Western Europe, Japan, Can-Aus-NZ, and the oil rich Middle East.
They VOLUNTARILY return to their own countries after graduation because the standard of living and the pay scale are the same as, or better than, the United States.
And here is another reason elite students leave:
80% of second tier foreign students from second tier American universities stay, or try to stay, in the USA after they graduate.
Almost all of those second tier foreign students come from Russia, China, India, Eastern Europe, and Iran.
Almost all of those second tier foreign students are chasing a USA Green Card because they can't bear the thought of going home to their garbage dump countries.
And because American employers know these kids don't want to go home, they pay them below-market salaries and force them to work brutally long hours, or else...no Green Card sponsorship!
This is exactly the kind of work environment that many elite foreign students would have to compete in if they did stay in the USA. So, the elite students say “forget this crap,” and they go home.
Current H-1B and Student Work policies are literally driving out the most talented foreign students so American corporations can hire the cheapest and most desperate Third World students.
Trump went wobbly last night. He doesn’t know what is in his own position paper. Big disaopointment.
