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 also noticed Cruz threw Trump a lifeline when Trump answered a question on immigration which was a bit rough and Cruz jumped in a few minutes later and said that the wall in Israel was working very, very well and that it was not fair for all those waiting in the immigration line for all the illegals to jump the line.”
I didn’t notice the hug, thanks for pointing that out.
Actually it was Trump that brought up the Israeli wall and unfairness to those waiting ;) But it was Cruz that jumped in after Bush and Kasich jumped all Trump’s deportation plan. Cruz brilliantly compared illegals stealing jobs and lowering wages to that if journalists jumped the border.
I’m hoping for some serious collaboration as well!
Okay, I have to ask...and I’m asking sincerely, not snarkily, because I don’t know the woman from Adam, so to speak...
...what was wrong with Bartiromo’s hair? I saw it this morning, and someone went a little heavy-handed with the highlights, it’s true. But I like tousled hair...it looks feminine.
Thanks for the clarification GG. As someone starting 2 businesses next year, that is not a good plan at all!
“Before Trump even hinted he might run this time, Cruz was already the LEADING champion of safe borders.”
He hasn’t talked at all about what he’ll do with the millions of illegals here. His donors, I’d wager
But to me, that doesn't make him a non-Christian any more than Peter was right after the Resurrection.
Peter did not fully understand God's Will, but he was still a Christian the moment he saw Christ had risen.
If you recall in the Scripture, Peter received the sign that compelled him to accept pagan Christians.
I agree that Peter was misguided to demand Old Testament orthodoxy.
But ... was Peter a non-Christian prior to that sign?
He was flawed but yes, Christian, just as literalists who think that the earth was created in six [or seven] solar days.
[Note that the Sun was not created until the third ‘day’.]
RIP Jan Cooks!
Let me get this straight — you would wager that Cruz is getting donations from millions of illegal immigrants?
“He hasn’t talked at all about what he’ll do with the millions of illegals here. His donors, I’d wager”
Man, where were you prior to the Trump campaign?
Anyone who supports illegal immigrants HATE Cruz.
Cute.
Didn’t she recently get hair extensions? Now she has short hair? Seems like she is trying to change her “image” to win over people that gave up on her since the first debate debacle.
You asked, and you got told. If you were still steaming this morning over an innocuous comment made last night, you definitely need to think about the decaf.
Ah - don’t be fooled into thinking Cruz has been Borked. They’ve been trying to do it, but actually *failing*. Even solid conservatives that I know basically know little about Cruz. A few soundbites and that’s it.
To be properly Borked, the general public has to know more. Once Cruz’s ideas start getting more airtime (due to the thinning field and his ability to stay in thanks to his solid ground game and fundraising), Cruz will soar.
I agree, the same question should be asked to all before changing topics. Seems like with all the controversy of the debates leading up to last night's debate, the powers that be would get this.
On the basis of what?
Are you surprised? She is a liberal hack pretending to be fair and balanced. She's a more liberal version of Megyn Kelly.
Who was the candidate I forget the year maybe 2004 or 2008 when one said, "My daddy worked on a mill!" John Edwards? Lindsey Graham?
Yes go read Trump’s tax plan and you will see that it is much more friendly to small business.
