This Iran/sailor thing is so stupid. Potentially huge crisis avoided quickly and peacefully, but Obama is a big pussy, and the Iranians would never do this to Christie/Bush/Cruz/ whatever because they have yuge cocks, and even bigger bombs.

Trying to give this a fair shot, but having a real hard time tolerating the stupid shit flying across the stage.

Bush is considered strong on foreign policy in polls, so he keeps trying to shift the focus to those points. It isn't working from what I can see.

Then why spend time in a forum commenting on a debate you're not watching?

TBF its really hard to watch. I had to turn it off.

There was a vaguely good bit when the fat guy destroyed the slick over fake tanned guy next to him for being a dishonest fuck but otherwise...

Cruz had Trump showing his true colors during the Birther part of the debate.

I have to admit it was more entertaining than hearing "free stuff, more free stuff and vote for me because I have a vagina....blah blah blah" lol

If there's one takeaway here it's that we should vote for the most entertaining candidate... :rolleyes:

I thought Cruz was trying to throw the Obama/birther thing at Trump. Fun to see them both talking about it without saying Obama.

\the first thing tonight they didn't blame him for...

Trump is right about China, though most people are completely unaware. He finally made a somewhat lucid case as to why he keeps bringing it up.

It's another topic that nobody knows / knew about that Trump is bringing to the fore.

Wow Rubio just made himself look like an idiot.

The way to deal with unfair tariffs on our goods entering China is to get rid of Obamacare and somehow mysteriously become "more competitive"?

Now Bush proves he's a wimp.

And wow, Trump calls him weak right as I typed that.

Ohh no, if we put tariffs on their goods because they put tariffs on our goods, they'll put more tariffs on our goods! They will stop buying soybeans because there's another source they can find food for their massive population!

China can sit and spin.

Agree. Jeb just proved he's both establishment and a wimp. Everyone but Cruz and Trump (and Carson via abstention) just proved they want status quo.

China would starve without our food.

The funny thing is Trump is the reasonable one on stage.


He is changing his approach to appeal to a broader audience. He is a hell of a lot smarter than people give him credit for.

Not sure what to make of that though.
