thethreeman posted:trump really, really looked awful in the first half in several exchanges with rubio. His responses were a joke. This thread is under selling it Trump did gently caress up badly in the first half but its going to be forgotten after Super Tuesday and he will go on a media storm until then grabbing all the attention like always. this would have been a stellar performance by Rubio before the primary contests, but its too late they needed a clean knockout

this is the kind of debate performance from rubio the establishment needed in early january. if this had happened then they'd analyze what lines got trump flustered, develop along those lines, and then burn him to the ground on the next debate. without cruz there for trump to play off of rubio might have had a shot but it just wasn't enough juice. too little too late. there are like 3 (?) more debates so maybe there's more chances for this, but i don't see a future where trump isn't the presumptive nominee after ST barring act of god

The next debate isn't until March 3rd and by then the narrative will be about Trump winning 90% of the Super Tuesday states and how much Megyn Kelly will be bleeding out of her wherever during the rematch

I liked the parts where Trump said he wants peace in the Middle East and for people to not die on the streets and he got both Cruz and Rubio to attack him for that. I have no idea how a Republican reacts to that but they looked incredibly bad to me in that exchange.

Trump is utterly reprehensible in a whole bunch of ways But his foreign policy is so bafflingly sane that I wonder how much that alone is causing problems in the republican party.

For anyone who didn't see the debate, this actually happened, this isn't a joke. Also there was a really loud woman in the audience who shrieked in agony/ecstasy every time Rubio said anything. She was very loud.

Maybe I'm channeling Ben Carson levels of intellect and perception, but I didn't see much in the way of a Trump-Stumpin' that people are talking about. Sure, Marco had a few comebacks, but he and Donald mostly spoke over each other and then the kicker was I was immediately distracted from what ever Rubs said by that bitch in the audience shrieking WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! every time he opened his yap.

And then Rubio went on to sheepishly say "He keeps repeating himself. He keeps repeating himself. He keeps repeating himself."

Ultimately this forum is a lot like pundits. We see things and latch onto things based on what we want to believe and what we think is important. We know, in general, that debates don't win elections, primaries or anything else. They can lose them though, and Rubio in NH almost certainly contributed to his demise. My gut instinct despite my flailings is that Trump was very slightly hurt by tonight, but not enough for it to matter. The real question is for Ted Cruz and his supporters. Cruz had a loving terrible night, and how his supporters break up probably decides how this all plays out.

"i don't repeat myself, i don't repeat myself" was also a pretty bad line however, all of the stumping was in the first 30-45 minutes of the debate. then the donald went quiet for a while, and then when he came back hard on cruz they never managed to put him on the back foot again. he's terrible on defense, but so strong on offense that as long as he has a soft target to hit he can avoid any serious downsides by just ignoring the hits and lashing out. he tried on rubio but couldn't really get traction on him, but he savaged cruz, and showed that as long as cruz is at a debate trump will be able to score points by just ripping into him.

Trump, fully armored, stands before Cruz and Rubio, sword in hand. They charge. A flurry of blows are exchanged. Trump falls back parrying blow after blow. Then he slips under a vicious over-hand arc from Rubio, and slams a mailed fist into his mouth, knocking him to the ground. Cruz aims a slash at his neck, but the Donald ducks, pivoting, and drives his own blade into Ted's helm, breaking his jaw and smashing the helm from his head. Rubio and Cruz lay gasping in the dust. Cruz scrambles to his feet and runs away. Donald lays his sword point at Marco's throat. "I'll kill you, but not today," Donald says. "For me, it will just be a Tuesday." He sheathes his sword and mounts Narrative, only to gallop off, leaving Marco panting and sweating in the dirt.

uncurable mlady posted:Allowing insurance companies to sell across state lines would be absolutely disastrous as an immediate race to the bottom would occur where every insurance company would headquarter and issue policies from the most "business friendly" state in order to benefit from the protection of their laws vis a vis torts, etc. It would be absolutely disastrous. Uh, so why is that bad? They'd compete on prices. And hopefully I wouldn't need to pay the insane health insurance bill that I do every month.

Different states have different rules about what insurance companies can and can not do, you would be gutting a huge amount of consumer protection laws for most of the country.

zen death robot posted:Look one of these times he's gonna get it right He is right though! Rubio DID have a very good night. The problem is not that he had a good night, its the nature of what the good night was and what the polling seems to indicate. I really have not liked the idea that donald trump could or will be the nominee, but an all out blitz by a pair of candidates [Rubio and Cruz] only happens when the campaigns know that they are getting beat and beat hard. Rubio had a great night, but he only had a great night because he's had the poo poo kicked out of him for a month. It's probably too little too late.
