Nastiest GOP Debate Yet
politico.com ^ | February 13

Posted on 02/13/2016 8:29:54 PM PST by Helicondelta

An all-out brawl broke out on Saturday night's debate stage, as the GOP candidates viciously tried to wound each other ahead of next weekend's South Carolina primary.

Donald Trump skewered Jeb Bush for standing by his brother and the Iraq War. Bush slammed John Kasich for supporting Obamacare's Medicaid expansion. Marco Rubio and Trump called Ted Cruz a serial liar, and Cruz bit back, retorting that Rubio is weak on undocumented immigrants

Trump took himself out of the race by attacking George W. Bush and praising Planned Parenthood. He needs to pick Cindy Sheehan as his vp and run for the Democrat nomination.

By Charlie Sheen’s definition of winning, yeah, Trump won it.

What a freaking punk.

I’m here to attack George W. Bush too. He was a disaster. Speaking of disasters, Reince Preibus should be looking for a new job by Monday afternoon.

Take it up with Trump. He ran a Bush lied and people died attack on Bush. Trump then said that GWB should have been impeached. Later in the debate Trump defended planned parenthood. Trump is a liberal democrat and is running in the wrong primary.

I support Trump, and I think he did well in the second half. But I wish he had shown more self-control in the first half. In my opinion, that wasn’t good for him.

But I have no doubt that he will win SC, so this debate means nothing.

Trump did fantastic. That close was a cut above. Coffee is for closers only!

LOL. Check the polls. Most republicans think the Iraq war was a mistake. Even Jeb admits it.

Trump didn’t say anything he hadn’t said before. He came out on top of this debate bloodbath.

He is winning all the online polls.

Here is what I noticed about this debate: it was apparent that C-BS wanted to showcase their favorite, Jeb, against the Donald. Of course the donor class of rich fat cats applauded everything Bush said. C=BS was hoping everyone would love Jeb and hate Trump. It backfired.

Well, if true to past form, Cruz folks will be along in a minute to remind us Cruz is in charge, the nation has no Christians, and all those states are deeply Leftist, so who wants them anyway.

Well, they were determined it would be Trump’s turn ‘in the barrel’ and he was having none of it.

But I think the GOPe candidates had a good night.
