This debate will give the GOPe more hope that Trump is killable. It's still too late but more people opposing him will be funny as hell in the general

Trump took some big hits there and got flustered a few times which could make things interesting if anything other than the penis thing and the pledge gets play. He's still going to win but this will give the establishment some hope

Rubio will suffer after tonight. He looked like a waterlogged corpse, his voice was worse than Hillary's, and he couldn't say a single quoteworthy thing apart from "I would support Donald as the nominee."

The pledge is to support the nominee and they say yes because Trump won't be the nominee after he is hosed over at the convention

Right but a pledge won't stop Trump from running 3rd party because he can and will just claim that he was going to honour the pledge but X happened. So bringing it up at all just limits the other 3 candidates, who are actually expected to not just ignore their promises, if some insanity Trump nom into 3rd party GOPe Romneygeddon happens, and weakens their anti-trump rhetoric in the meantime because 'if this guy is so bad why have you pledged to support him'

Do you think Trump is going to file as an Independent by May 9th?

When's the libertarian party's convention? that's his latest date. He should know if it's going to be a contested convention by then.

you don't think that #nevertrump ending with a big wet fart isn't just going to lead trump to getting a majority of delegates, at which point there would be no contested convention and everything keeps plodding along intact for the GOP?

until about two hours ago everyone thought cruz and rubio were gonna fight tooth and nail but then they more or less abdicated on national tv

i don't see how everyone completely blowing away their own arguments for why trump can't win makes it MORE likely that there is a brokered convention all of a sudden

The truly chaotic thing about the situation was Fox choosing to end on that question when the whole rest of the debate up to that point seemed like a hit had been put on Trump. They had to know bringing up the pledge could only help him, right?

No foreshadowing there, they literally said they'd treat him with kids gloves and never attack or even research into attacking him if only he promised to not go third party

It was the dumbest goddamned thing.

I mean, to be fair, the GOP didn't write any stipulations about fair treatment or kid gloves, Trump just invented those provisos when he signed the pledge and it eventually became true through repetition.
