Mitt Romney posted:How did Trump do? Good: I'm really proud of my company, I've hired thousands of people and nobody on this stage can say that. Bad: Spieled about China in response to TPP subject, was reminded by Rand f'n Paul that China isn't in the TPP and he just wasted his time.

Ted Cruz is winner of the debate by virtue of recreating one of the most infamous primary political gaffes in American history and getting away with it scot-free.

Xandu posted:There's definitely a balance. Paul came off too sidelined without interpreting, but Kasich and Fiorinia seemed too aggressive. Total Questions: Kasich: 7 Trump: 11 Bush: 9 Rubio: 10 Cruz: 8 Carson: 12 Fiorina: 6 Paul: 9 Total Interruptions: Kasich: 7 Trump: 2 Bush: 4 Rubio: 3 Cruz: 4 Carson: 0 Fiorina: 6 Paul: 1 Q:I Ratio: Kasich: 1 Trump: 5.5 Bush: 2.25 Rubio: 3.33 Cruz: 2 Carson: SYS ERR Fiorina: 1 Paul: 9 I'd say Cruz, Bush and Rubio had the right Q:I ratio.

He's got plenty in his closet to make him unelectable. He's got to stand on a stage with insane people to appear normal and palatable.

I think Trump can wheel around and say China should have been reeled in with a better trade plan or individual trade plan and that's what he meant, not that China was in the TPP.

Mitt Romney posted:How did Trump do? Good: - Stumped Fiorina (The base doesn't really like uppity women, especially when they don't have a leg to stand on.) - Embarassed Kasich, who came off as rude and rambling - Reiterated that he's the strongest anti-immigrant guy out there and Jeb and Kasich, already looking weak as hell, had some half-hearted attacks on him that basically failed - The most focused on CHINA Bad: - Looked genuinely stumped by Rand - Recycling a lot of the same points, but I doubt that that matters too much. His current shtick is working pretty well. - Stumpings were much less severe than usual. Sign of mercy? Overall, not a bad performance but not great. I think Trump knows that he can get away with just saying the same old things until the field narrows down at which point he'll have to do some homework.

The vocational stuff is probably the only thing I agree with any of this poop-people on. Now let's talk about making vocational training not outrageously expensive and provide a decent wage and benefits for said workers.

spoon0042 posted:also why the gently caress are republicans all about welders all of a sudden It's vague enough to not be the previous manufacturing jobs that used to be available as decent-paying jobs for high school graduates in the US until Republican-style policies were themselves responsible for continually driving everything to a race-to-the-bottom wage issue and thus outsourcing to the 3rd world. The funny thing is, the whole "why do we stigmatize vocational training?" rhetorical question is actually easily answered by the fact that conservatives have for decades degraded its respectability by cutting their benefits and pay by denigrating unions, etc. So these manufacturing jobs were now "quickly-disappearing poor-people labor". Cultural stigma doesn't magically come from nowhere.

Rexicon1 posted:The vocational stuff is probably the only thing I agree with any of this poop-people on. Republicans will be doing none of those things. That's what makes the whole rhetorical exercise so bad; under the most minute scrutiny, it is their complete unwillingness to back competitive wages for workers at these jobs that their respectability went down the shitter. Tech work has, for now, replaced that field entirely and prettymuch sucked up all the investment and wealth instead. The US doesn't make things anymore, and a lot of it has to do with neoliberal economics.

Prettymuch all of them raise the deficit by trillions of dollars, some more than others. I don't know how to quantify the "Let's just get rid of all taxes and abolish the IRS" plans, because they're not even worth putting math towards.
