Re: Illegal immigration

[TerpEagle]

Wasn't really a debate. More like concurrent interviews.

I'd like to see a debate where they ask all of the participants the exact same questions. To me the questions seemed to be designed to favor some people over others.

Agreed on the comedy aspects.

Just too many pepole for a "debate"

They need it to trim down to about 5.

The point isn't to close the borders

It's to have a fair process for all immigrants. Why should hundreds of thousands from all around the world have to go through a rigorous process to become US citizens when others can just walk over the border and eventually end up in the same place? It's unsustainable.

Trump is ridiculous. Surprised he wasn't wearing that cheesy red hat

Rubio got asked the most softball questions of the night.

[IronEagle]

But let's be honest, the main reason for tuning in was The Donald but the best reason for tuning in was Straight Outta Compton.

True I wouldn't have watched if Trump wasn't involved. In that sense he is benefiting the Republicans.

[Riccardo]

I didn't see the whole thing

Watched on delay so was zipping through the responses from most of the chumps

[TerpEagle]

Rubio got asked the most softball questions of the night.

Questions were pretty targeted. I think Rubio is the darling - young, "diverse", swing state, etc. of Fox News at least. Granted this was the first time I watched Fox News in forever so I don't know how he's treated otherwise.

I think he's a serious VP option for anyone besides Bush.

2016 nominee predictions today:

1) Bush-Fiorina
2) Walker-Rubio

Maybe. I think a lot of people tuned in just to see a shit show.

[AthensEagle]

It was a nice reminder of the sad state of political discourse in this country. On a related note, Rubio has huge ears.

[Overbrook]

What a sad circus show

It's hard to believe, but it appears the Republicans do not have a single legitimate candidate to run for President. Last night's 10 piece clown show showcased that fact.


Thank you Donald for the refreshing comedy relief.

I completely agree on the concept of fairness. How would we accomplish that without closing the borders/stemming the illegal flow ? The reward is so high that many are willing to risk their lives to come here; hiring coyotes to get them across.
( its hardly a "walk " for most)

Perhaps increase the penalties ? Can't put them in jail, that's another huge drain on the system. How can we insure fairness in the process without stopping the illegal flow ? Its a really tough nut to crack

Circus show is an accurate description of it

This loose format with a lot of joking around. Disrespectful talk, loaded questions. Mike Huckabee talking about taxing hookers and pimps with some sort of consumption tax. I can't believe what we've become. It's like a Tosh.0 debate or something. Rand Paul actually LOOKED like a clown.

I imagine anyone American with even half a brain is anxiously awaiting for him to please tell us what the "DNA schedule" is.

I particularly enjoyed that ignorant segment. What a fucking moron!

I checked the DNA schedule

It appears we've got several months. I mean...it's a schedule.

And how about Jeb "Sominex" Bush?

Did you see that little pre-game piece where they were asking all of these clowns what their pre-debate ritual is and Jeb goes, "I call my mother for advice" or some sh*t like that. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHO TOLD YOU TO SAY THAT, JEBBY???????
