Trump fires back after GOP opponents take turns bashing him in Republican debate

Former President Donald Trump, responding to heated criticisms from his primary opponents during the second GOP debate, said it was “much more important” for him to work to “save” autoworkers Wednesday night than to appear at the debate due to his massive lead in the primary polls, while dismissing Chris Christie’s “Donald Duck” nickname for him. […]

Trump spoke before a crowd of autoworkers in Clinton Township, Michigan Wednesday night, pleading that, if elected, the future of the automobile will be “Made in America.” […]

The most recent Fox News poll shows 60% of Republican primary voters supporting Trump for the GOP nomination — that’s up from 53% in the last survey in August.

The only other candidates to receive double-digit support in that poll are DeSantis at 13% and Ramaswamy at 11%. …

It is truly telling of the weakness of the GOP when they have to attack a candidate who isn’t there. It really displays the lack of platform and ideology they should have for the future of the country yet they lower the standard with this type of cheap plug to get themselves noticed like children and their needs ahead of others they are supposed to represent.

This is why Trump didn’t attend the meeting in the sandbox. He’s already proven his efforts for success and doesn’t need to try to con the voters into following people that do the exact thing the liberals have done for generations...lie, cheat, steal, and blame other people.

now DJT is presumed nominee - but the debate was useful to gauge the R bench. some are running for Cabinet positions, some for Vp - some to get at DJT. interesting that DJT remarked he wouldn’t pick any of them as running mate. the format of evening was ill-conceived - that Univision woman was there why? Burgum probably showed the best since he finally got some time to talk. Haley came off harsh and witchy at times especially “dumb” comment to Vivek.

Democrats just wanted to produce a bicker fest among the GOP to get snippets of bad temperament, unpresidential clips for themselves.

Maybe we should ask Ryan’s FR-agent, momincombatboots.

At what point do they realize they’re just showing up for the losers parade? I’d love to see the ratings...I had zero interest in watching, enjoyed PDJT’s speech to the auto workers.

Trump may be Donald Duck, but Christie is Miss Piggy.

pleading that, if elected

Typical Fox framing of the sentence.

People really need to stop watching Fox News. They really do not deserve our support. They never support us.

At this point, Trump is the obvious front runner and likely nominee. If, God forbid, something happens to Trump, bashing DeSantis, the only clear replacement is short-sighted and gives the left ammo to use against us. So all of you Freeper name callers, think about what you are doing as you emotionally vent against DeSantis.

No there is no need to drop a list of accomplishments of Trump.

For people such as that poster who are critical of Trump, in their minds, their criticisms will override whatever positive things you might note about Trump’s accomplishments.

He locked no one down. Seven states had no order restricting the movement of their state's residents. At least know your facts. They were: Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, & Arkansas.

It was the governor's who locked down their state.

7 governors still haven’t issued stay-at-home orders. Here’s why.

Facts are the cure for irrational TDS symptoms. Gather them up, & keep them close. Refer to them when you experience flareups.
