CubsWoo posted:Trump University was probably the biggest bombshell anyone could have dropped on Trump and Rubio vomited it out alongside 5 other things in the first 10 minutes I'm surprised nobody ever brings up Trump's failed airline, just because it allows an easy attack line ("Richard Branson can run airlines, why couldn't you?")

He'd quickly fire back about how foreign airlines have unfair advantages over US companies and the ball is back in his court. Rubio can't think on his feet to keep the attack up and Cruz is like that video game boss where if you punch him in the nose once he gets stunned and you can start doing triple damage combos on him for 3 rounds.

It says a lot about the quality of the other GOP candidates that none of them thought to say "there you go again" to Trump's deflectionist bullshit when they were on a roll. Seriously Trump wasn't even saying anything by the end of the debate with the same rhetorical gimmick over and over again. Word salad

Left the TV on after the debate and saw some regular network programming. Cruz is running lots of ads in Oklahoma, one of them is a direct attack on Rubio. No attacks that I've seen on Trump. Cruz knew he was gunning for second place well before the debate.

That's actually not why Trump Air failed, because it only ran shuttle routes between northeast cities. He misread the market, he made a high-margins luxury airline around 1990 when value airlines took off, and when the first Iraq war started jet fuel costs doubled and he didn't hedge against it like modern airlines do to insulate themselves against the ups and downs of oil prices. He basically zigged everywhere Southwest zagged.

It's simply amazing to me that they didn't try this before SC. I guess they really just chalked NH up to a fluke and completely ignored polling.

She has that glassy brittle laugh and the worst answers when caught off guard. Also check out that interaction with the BLM woman last night. Hillary lost her cool. Trump v. Hillary is going to be a battle of the sleaze titans.

Yes, my airline went under. A LOT of good businesses went under because of the disastrous policies of George Bush. Must run in the family. But that Iraq War was a terrible decision and it cost a lot of money and we had to clean up that mess and are still cleaning up that mess
