No matter who you are. If you are not embarrassed by tonight's GOP debacle, you weren't watching it.

What policies do you think are "just full of crazy" that you speak of?
Shoot to kill an illegal border crosser because YOU THINK a trooper at M-4 range can tell that there is Fentanyl in his backpack. That one comes to mind.

Defund and collapse DOJ and the FBI comes to mind as it is the position that a criminal would take. That one comes to mind.

This constant assault on Abortion rights and a women's reproductive comes to mind purely because it is a stone cold political LOSER. That one comes to mind.

I did not hear him say that? Can you post me that comment from him?

Desantis has said it several times and repeated it last night.

Google "Stone cold dead" and see what you get. If your query comes up with enough of his BULLSHIT on this topic you will conclude that D-Senseless is calling for rules of engagement at the border that include using lethal force as they come across. He is not talking about stopping crossers, searching them and then putting them up against the STUPID wall and shooting them.

He repeated his "Stone cold dead" bumper sticker sized campaign slogan last night.

I heard DeSantis, he would use lethal force. He was referencing the Fentanyl crossing the borders and the cartel.
 
Didn't watch. There's no value for me to watch a political debate.

He was addressing killing people... of which he has no magical way to know who is transporting anything.... His idea is to shoot and make up the excuse after.... that is called "Savagery".

These drugs are not the main stay of people seeking asylum... if they want to find out how these drugs cross the border, then partner with Mexico and take down cartels, and their logs and records will tell, who are the high level people of wealth and power who accept bribes to allow large drug shipment's to come into America. Asylum seekers are not a mass of drug mules.... that is a fiction, and its not even a logical assumption.
The Drug Railroad has been in place since the days of Reagan, and if they want to shut down the railroad, then trace back and they will find out the players and the methods, because its a well established railroad that has been supported by wealthy people on this side of the border, and on the other side among Cartels.

Secondly, America's drug consumers are not innocent!!! It is their lust and hunger for drugs, that is not even being addressed. No one forced any American to pursue, seek out and consume drugs. Until that problem is addressed in America... it is American people who make the drug usage and drug pipeline keep functioning.
 


There were several uncomfortable moments during the debate, but I agree that whoever prepared DeSantis for that debate is next on the chopping block for his campaign staff. The fact is DeSantis has spent a whole lot of money to see his numbers go the direction they are *and* that awkward performance last night.
 
We have all these great candidates. All the Dems have is an old, incompetent, half senile crook.
Hahaha.
Better luck next time, Dems.
 
What policies do you think are "just full of crazy" that you speak of?
He wants to build up a military presence on the southern border to stop illegal immigration, while normally not a huge issue when you combine it with him wanting to attack cartels in Mexico knowing that Mexico has already said they wont allow it, this would severely antagonize Mexico and could start a war.

He wants to stop anyone under the age of 16 from using social media. He wants to stop anyone under 25 from voting.

He wants to dismantle the FBI IRS and the department of education,

On top of that 80% of what he wants to do would require that he also control the House and the Senate to make any of it a reality.

Most of the policies are just more of lets fight the Dems instead of make things better for the US.
 
Someone made the point that R's are the drivers of debt.
I kept dozing off, sorry.

I was disappointed that the economy was supposed to be the big issue but each candidate was not asked: how, exactly, would you raise over $1T in federal revenue and/or cut over $1T in federal spending annually?

“Great Candidates”


Nuff said!

Did the “GOP Platform” make an appearance last night?
 
They're going to. Not all learning happens in the classroom.
Classrooms are the only place where kids can actually have a chance to learn something more and something different than their parents. It would be a shame to take that away.
What do you mean by okay?
A more educated, knowledgeable, growing, prosperous, enlightened, peaceful, and tolerant society.
 
Yes and no, there were other clowns on that stage doing what they could to wedge into Trump's base. Like Ramaswamy way out of his depth and Burgum who probably should have stayed at home.
Yeah, but you could tell it was just something they were trying to do. It was not natural, spontaneous, from-the-heart, or organic. It’s like listening to someone speak a language that’s not their native tongue. They have an accent, and they are straining to find the right words and think of the right grammar to put them together.

When Trump speaks to his base, he speaks their native language, naturally and with absolutely no accent. Which is interesting, because he grew up with so much money and privilege. But somehow, I get the feeling that the Trump family was really always just a blue-collar family with lots of money. They were blue collar at heart, and always belonged to the blue-collar culture. They never really fit into the elite society of Manhattan they tried so hard to get into. They had the money, but not the culture or language.

Maybe this whole Trumpism movement was Trump’s way of vengeance on a world that never really accepted him.

He was referencing lethal force at the border for border crossing with backpacks. Do some research then you might know what his bumper sticker sized campaign slogan "stone gold dead" means.

And yes...IDIOT D-Senseless wants to use drones to bomb Mexico.
 
Did the “GOP Platform” make an appearance last night?

I hope not. IMHO, that’s a problem which has ‘voters’ selecting candidates based on ‘D’ or ‘R’ (e.g. straight ticket voting) regardless of what the individual candidate ‘promised’ to do. That’s a big reason why Soros backed candidates get elected by simply being ‘D’ no matter what the demorat ‘platform’ may say.

The republicant POTUS primary debate was intended to show differences among the (allegedly viable) candidates - not their similarity or to have them vow adherence to some document written by career donor class cronies.

BTW, that was implied by the republicant party requirement that all their POTUS (debate eligible) candidates must agree (in advance) to support whoever gets the republicant POTUS nomination.
 
Everyone on that stage last night is MAGA. MAGA "philosophy was a loser in the 2020 presidential election. Not one of those people will preside any differently than TFG.

That was virtually a requirement since they require ‘converting’ current Trump supporters in order to win in the republicant POTUS primaries.
 
Haley said that she would pardon TFG if he is found guilty. (n)
 
They vowed to turn the entire country into the failed shitholes that are the G.O.P. governed states, tax cuts for the rich, abolish the Department of Education and disperse funds directly to below average educated parents in those states, scapegoat teacher's unions, increase the incarceration rate nationally, dismantle everything they object to and replace it with nothing, and support increased demand and profits of the fossil fuel industry.

Ban abortion nationally.

Better educated voters do not vote for Republicans so education professionals are to be marginalized in favor of the judgment of poorly educated, RWE parents.

"Biotech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy said Trump was the “best president of the 21st century,” accusing Christie of running a campaign of based on “vengeance and grievance” against one man.

Of Ramaswamy, Christie said: “You make me laugh, because you sit here talking about how you want to stand up for the rule of law and law and order. … I am not going to bow to anyone, when we have a president of the United States who disrespects the Constitution.” .."
Let it out. Lol
