I was honestly surprised at how blatant Wallace, Kelly, and Baier were with their bosses' desperate attempts to sweep Trump off the stage. The very first question, asking candidates if they pledge not to be a third party spoiler if they lose, was both a bold demand for party discipline and a direct attempt to discredit the Donald. But even Megyn Kelly's pointed questions about his sexism failed to get him. He appeared shaken at times, but the criticism so obviously fed him. The line about Rosie was a MASTERFUL retort, and he repeatedly said exactly what the howling base wants. You cannot criticize him, you cannot call him a clown. No matter what you hit him with, he eats it up and wins anyway. They have no response to this and its driving the conservative establishment absolutely mad In addition to the most insane dog-whistling about drug dealers and pimps, Huckabee shockingly argued that the 5th and 14th amendments should be invoked to product fetuses because life begins at conception. Maybe my own political biases color this, but I think Kasich is the strategic winner here. A relative unknown in a crowded celebrity bench, he managed to make himself relevant overnight. He was sane, compassionate, willing to break the party line, sincere, and most of all ELECTABLE. At this point I don't think it's realistic he could ever be the GOP candidate, but if he was he could beat Hillary. My favorite part was probably everyone trying to one-up eachother with how working class their dad's job was

confused posted:I just figured it out! Trump is a double agent! He is actually working for the Clintons to get the nomination so that when the general election occurs he will act even more insane so that Hillary will have no real competition. Nailed it! lol somebody basically called him on this, but his explanation for his donations to the Democrats and the Clinton foundation was quid pro quo. Because he donated to Clinton she had to go to his wedding, he said. And exercising power over politicians like that makes him good and a badass Basically he bragged about bribing federal officials, to raucous applause
