Attack Trump? They are all hoping the moderators will do that. They are too cowardly to do it themselves because they know what will happen to anyone who says anything disparaging about âhe who cabât wait to say, âYouâre Fired!ââ to any and all of them!
TPM advising Republican candidates? Talk about groveling.
He may be vulnerable on abortion, but the Donât-Touch-My-SS-or-Medicare rank and file Tea Partiers are gonna eat that Magic Capitalist ¨Make America Rich Again¨Ž mumbo-jumbo right up.
âThe Donaldâ Trump to his rival GOP clowns: "Come at meâŚIâm YOOOOOOGEâ⌠People love me, China loves me, Mexicans love me and did I mention that Iâm rich ! SoâŚcome at me, and when you do, just rememberâŚ
~rimshot!~
Trump, in general, just spews Reichwing Radio swill, and the others, with a modicum of fear of Trump have to tread lightly; they certainly donât want to anger the screeching Rushbots, banshees and denizens of batsh*tcrazy Frightwing talk media outlets.
"âŚTrump said he intends to replace Obamacare with âsomething terrific.â
Considering Trumpâs dominance in the polls, shouldnât at least one of the debates be hosted by QVC?
Thanks. So we have 4 of 5 points where thereâs room for liberals to find they can support him.
As Jon Stewart said, billionaires like him are supposed to support our candidates, not be our candidates. Trump fails to understand the division of power in our system. Still, if weâre going to be run by billionaires, shouldnât we see who they are? Even the Kochs are more liberal than most of the politicians on their dime.
This âdebateâ at FAUX News will be the political equivalent of the old âGong Showâ! And scheduling this clownfest at 5:00 is criminal. Think of the pileups on the highways as people are consumed with fits of laughter.
_____ And I just want the first question to be: â______ As a representative of âThe Party of Lincolnâ could you tell the American public why you think taking guns into a theater should be legal?â
You expect the 9 Dwarfs to attack Snow White Trump? Nope, theyâll leave the attacking to Evil Queen Megyn!
They have to start at 5:00. If they waited tell 8:00 most of their target audience would be asleep in the first 30 minutes.
I cannot how stupid Republicans are and how sleazy, corrupt and power grubbing the dumb and incompetent Bush family is.
Is the loss of 50 million jobs, 5000 American lives lost and trillions of dollars of deficit between Bush the father and Bush the Dumber not enough Bush for America?
John is the absolute worst candidate Republicans could pick. Just as Mitt Romney was the worst Republican candidate to take on President Obama.
One of the terrors of the GOP is that The Donald will go third party. WellâŚRoosevelt had the Bull Moose party, and Trump could go ârogueâ with the Hair Mousse PartyâŚor would that be Heir Mousse Party???
One certainty: Trump will be Trump! The moderator will be repeating: âMr. Trump! Mr. Trump! Your time is upâŚMr. Trump!!! DAMMITââŚHey, Mr. Trump!!!â
The other clowns will be milquetoast and GOP-PC and will wonder next day, after the media pundits call Trumpâs performance âa disasterââŚwhy Trumpâs lead in the polls has increased.
Go Donald!
Trump said he intends to replace Obamacare with âsomething terrific.â
terrific, as in causing terror; terrifying.
You missed the point of the essay. The point is that the others in the GOP clown car are in an impossible position, created by their own seven years of hysterically out-of-step rhetoric. This is sweet, sweet, sweet.
Trump will not be the nominee. But every day that heâs the front-runner, with favorables rising, is a day that the other 16 are fighting to say ever more outrageous things which will come back and bite them in the ass in the general.
Absent a Hillary catastropheâsuch as triangulating and attacking Bernie, which the old-school New Dems running Clinton campaign are unfortunately capable of doingâDems win WH in '16.
Spot-on.
No oneâs going to get âhammeredâ at this debate.
If Monday nightâs candidate forum is any guide, many of the candidates are still finding themselves. Thursday will be a puffball event. The notion that positions on issues matter at this stage seems a bit misguided.
They should attack The Rump for all the workers who his companies have hired illegally. I doubt that they will, however, because American business owners are perfectly happy to hire workers illegally. This is why Republicans focus exclusively on making the immigrantsâ lives miserable, while quietly avoiding the possibility of inconveniencing an American business owner in the slightest.
I loved the Unknown Comic, the contortionist âspider womanâ and Keen Gene, the Dancing Machine.

Advice from Us to Them (the Evil) so that they can dislodge Trump?
And thenâŚ? (just a questionâŚno implications hereâŚ)
While I get why some Pubs like Trump, heâs alienating a much wider swath of the American public. In a similar fashion with Christie, the loud-mouthed, arrogant, in-your-face, know it all style rubs way more in the wrong way. Tell me that the average American enjoys working for, listening to or is friendly with similar boorsâŚand Iâll eat my hat.
