The two Republican presidential debates on the Fox Business Network are scheduled for 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. EST tonight. They are being held at the Milwaukee Theater in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The 'kiddie table'at 7 p.m.: Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum.
The main event at 9 p.m.: Donald Trump of New York, Dr. Ben Carson of Florida, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina of California, Ohio Gov. John Kasich, and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.
FBN described the debates and moderators:
The first debate will be one hour in length and moderated by FBN anchors Trish Regan, Sandra Smith & WSJ's Washington Bureau Chief Gerald Seib.
The second debate will span two hours and be moderated by FBN anchors Maria Bartiromo, Neil Cavuto and WSJ Editor-in-Chief Gerard Baker.
The debates will focus on the most important business and economic issues facing the United States including job creation, social security and taxes.
I always figured they'd just print money to stop a bank panic. I guess if the crash was big enough that wouldn't work.
Cruz — winner by knockout over Kasich, best answer on immigration and jobs. Debate winner by a large margin.
Paul - Laughable that a Libertarian tries to make points by calling a Republican (Rubio) not a conservative. Neither one of them are.
Rubio - Decent.
Fiorina - I would write more, but she’d just interrupt me.
Carson - Word salad.
Trump - Hasn’t said anything original since the first debate.
Bush - was Bush. Nuff said.
Kasich - so that’s what it’s like to watch someone commit political hara-kiri on national television.

It was a joke. Trump could have a bigger crowd tomorrow with little notice over everyone on stage. It appeared to be a Liberal audience.
FBN just said Rubio will be the new establishment candidate after this debate. That’s the kiss of death in this election year.
Well I know that’s what Cruz meant but he ended up arguing with Kasich over a completely erroneous point.
The questioner was the first to equate letting a bank collapse with ruining its customers. This isn’t the case because depositors are protected by FDIC. Cruz didn’t disagree with this faulty premise.
Then Kasich jumped in defending the idea of bailing out a bank because “you have to protect the customers”, the same mistake that the questioner and Cruz had both made.
None of them knew what they were talking about.
Cruz’s position was defensible, but he let himself get sandbagged by a question based on a faulty assumption.
At least you got to hear them. My feed never aired them. The next time it cut in after a commercial break the debate was over and the commentators were talking. What the heck? Oh well, I’m sure I can catch them tomorrow somewhere online.
Yeah, the compelling family story gets old fast.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You got my point!
Don’t see how Trump had a bad night. They hardly gave him any time.
LOL!
SERIOUSLY?!
Carson’s closing statement was awesome!
I like Trump, but.. bad night for him.
Curious...how so?
I disagree. Trump did well. He just did not get any time.
John Kasich who has 2% and Carly who had 3% had way more time than the leader Trump.
Trump looked Statesman, but again was denied time.
GREAT!
Yes, Trump did just fine with the time he was afforded.
God bless TRUMP and CRUZ!
(On Cavuto’s show Charlie Gazpirino is bashing Bush and Kasich)!
Trump took charge. He looks stronger than the rest of the field.
Holy crap - these commentators afterward are idiots.
These people critique as if they have a right.
I am getting kind of tired of the debates. They need to give it a rest for awhile.
Hopefully some of the guys that have no chance like Kasich and Carly will be gone.
He was one of 14 who voted that glo-bull warming is patially man made
No Carson; NOT EVER !
Here comes the post debate spin. Time for Frank Lutz to say Trump is finished! For the hundredth time.
