    I consider it being a mature, reasonable human being. I can understand your confusion though.

    The national debt is 18 trillion under Obama and he's trying like hell to get it up to 20 trillion before he leaves office. Trump couldn't possibly be worse for the nation than Obama has been. Hell, Attila the Hun couldn't be worse than Obama has been.

    I can't disagree, other than say my strongest objestion was the amout of time the moderators took away from the candidates. It wasn't about THEM!

    the nation is at a point of no return, caused by the last 25 years of failed leadership from Clinton to bush 2 and obama, those so called morons have more commonsense then the elite smart political correct ones your so worshiping..

    Debate Moderators are suppose to moderate not be part of the debate. Last nigh wasn't a debate between the candidates, it was a question and answer show with little debating between the candidates.

    And The Donald would be the final nail in the coffin, you seem eager to tear down the Nation, be careful what you wish for it may not turn out like your fantasy.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I cannot recall any debate that has been between the candidates in modern history, nothing new here.

    National debt isn't spending. So nice red herring. But even considering the national debt Obama has not even come close to Reagan's increases to the national debt. Trump will be a far bigger spender than Obama. Obama's pretty much the biggest fiscal conservative we have had in office for the past half century. And the results are as expected. We need a real Keynesian in office, a very Reagan/Bush like person.

    Many of them didn't get many "pointed" questions at all. They floated. The whole debate wasn't a debate, it was a who's gonna trip up Trump! It wasn't balanced in the least. However, Trump has the lead in the polls, so he should face the toughest questioning.

    He is nothing but a liberal.

    He is playing you and others like a fiddle.

    You should know this by now.

    Trump only rises in the polls where others would have dropped. Nothing seems to hurt him. How else was Fox supposed to challenge him? Yes they were tough on him but it seems to not have hurt him. He should be called Teflon Don.

    There's a message there with those numbers. The Democrats are probably in the DNC situation room right now in panic mode.

    It's also not good for Obama's legacy. And he thinks he done a pretty good job and could get reelected. :roflol:

    Hahahahahahaha! Whew! Thanks. That's quite some comedy routine. But seriously, Trump isn't likely to get all the way through the primaries because he always bails when conditions become harsh and sooner or later the Left-Allied Mainstream Media is going to go all out to take him down, making what Meagan did last night look like child's play. At that point Trump will find something else to do with his time.

    Reagan increased the national debt more than Obama? Bwahahahahaha! Sweet!

    But it wasn't the job of Fox to challenge Trump, in a debate it's where the candidates challenge each other. The mods are just suppose to get things moving and keep the debating under control.

    I agree. In that regard the moderators were far to overly involved in their own air time than allowing a debate to break out.

    Precisely so. Fox screwed up, and one wonders if they were acting on orders from the RNC, which loathes Trump.

    In a normal debate with a normal candidate, yes but Trump is not your run of the mill candidate. They helped him more than hurt him. He loves that kind of exchange. If they want to hurt him they should treat him in the same boring way as others. I believe if that happened he would quit on his own.

    The moderators were tough and fair. Taking a jab at Megyn Kelley for not being nice to him (Trump) was stupid.

    I don't 100% trust Trump.

    He has former ties with the Clinton's, what if there's a collusion between the two. Democrats do things like that.

    One thing is for sure though if Trump is a liberal shill he will not be open about it. He would be saying exactly what he is saying. If Trump runs as a 3rd party the dems will win.
