Official 2016 GOP thread: Is it really going to be Donald Trump?? (1 Viewer)

[Amused to Death]

at Jindal comparing the kid with the clock in Texas to Kim Davis.

 

[Sinn Fein]

We are all within 1% of these guys in the polls.

-QG

Deez Nuts polled better than all of them combined in NC

 

[lod01]

Dude on the left is schooling Sanitarium.

 

[rockaction]

Has anyone posted this graph yet?

Shocking to see the difference between what Cruz and Rand say vs how they vote.

How could anyone ever support someone who votes so radically divergent from what they sell?

This clearly needs no methodological explanation nor citation. I think I'll take it at face value.

So both Ron and Rand Paul said one thing and consistently did the opposite.

Hmmmm...

 

[Sinn Fein]

Dude on the left is schooling Sanitarium.

Glad he is making such an impression on you....

"We got Islamic-terrorists living in a van down by the river." Graham.

Ya like that? Wish Jack Tripper would refer to him as 'dude on the left'.

 

[lod01]

"We got Islamic-terrorists living in a van down by the river." Graham.

What song is that a verse in?

 

[Daywalker]

Santorum going down in flames.

Chris Farley skit?

Santorum going down in flames.

He's such a moron.

 

[Daywalker]

"We got Islamic-terrorists living in a van down by the river." Graham.

What song is that a verse in?

Farley, Stills and Nash ditty.

 

[lod01]

Dude on the rightr. 'Ya know my mom and dad....' No one cares, loser. Answer the damn question.

 

[lod01]

Weasel schooling dude on the right. He's pissed.

 

[Dickies]

I don't think any of these clowns are doing anything to increase their poll%.

 

[Eminence]

I like these guys.

 

[Daywalker]

Sounds like they are all open to raising taxes in some form.

 

[lod01]

If they don't give up, do they get to keep their JV timeslot? What if 3 give up? Does the last loser get the podium by himself? Or do they tell him to go away?

 

[lod01]

Sounds like they are all open to raising taxes in some form.

Only because they know they won't actually have to make that decision. About time they woke up to the D way of making promises.

Raising the taxes on the top 1% seems like a given now. The negotiation is on everything else going forward.

 

[fatguyinalittlecoat]

"Dude on the right" shtick is gold.

 

[timschochet]

Lindsay Graham at least made a good point about the Planned Parenthood fight. I hope somebody calls out Cruz on this on the big stage. (Doubt it though.)

 

[timschochet]

Arnold sighting!!

 

[dschuler]

Arnold sighting!!

He's BAAAACCCKK!

 

[timschochet]

Arnold is dripping with sweat. Did he run there?

 

[dschuler]

Celebrity Apprentice has him stressing out

 

[timschochet]

Why are they in a hangar?

The main attraction of the Reagan Library is the Air Force One that President Reagan flew on. It's actually really cool. A little cramped, compared to today's Air Force One I understand.

 

[timschochet]

The Reagan Library is in a beautiful hilly setting. As you drive up the hill, every 50 feet or so there is a large flag portrait of each President, from Washington to Obama. The whole surrounding is much prettier than Nixon's Library in Yorba Linda (the other one in Southern Cal.)

 

[lod01]

Would love to see an ex HP employee run across the stage and drill Fiorina with a pie to the face. I guarantee all of them up there would gasp except for Trump who would chuckle and say 'best she's ever looked'. Poll ratings up 10 points.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Can't imagine this will be better than the first one, but with Trump...you just never know.

[lod01]

Lot of ham and eggers walking onto the stage.

 

[dschuler]

Anderson Cooper's hair looks spray painted in a sparkling snow white finish. Him and Colin Cowherd are on two opposites sides of the hair spectrum right now.

 

[timschochet]

They should just completely ignore some of these candidates that have no chance. Like Rand Paul. Why bother asking him any questions? No chance.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

We really should have a drinking game for these things.

Tim>set up the rules

 

[timschochet]

Matt Taibbi provides some drinking game rules for tonight:

http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/the-official-gop-debate-drinking-game-rules-pt-2-20150916

Drink THE FIRST TIME and the FIRST TIME only:

1. A candidate invokes the memory of Saint Reagan.

2. A candidate mentions Hillary's emails.

Drink EVERY TIME:

3. Hugh Hewitt hurls a douchey gotcha question at Trump.

4. Trump – or any of the other candidates – insults or threatens one of the moderators. Beer chaser if it's Tapper or Bash, and the candidate rips liberal-### CNN in the process.

5. Trump brags about his wealth or his poll numbers, or mocks the low poll numbers of an opponent.

6. A candidate pledges to stand with Israel.

7. Carly Fiorina makes a joke about her own face.

8. A candidate claims a positive relationship with a minority. We're keeping this rule in every debate. (So far we're one-for-one: Kasich said he had a gay friend in the first debate.)

9. Anyone mentions Kim Davis or the "War on Christians."

10. A candidate says he'll stand up to Putin.

11. Trump derides someone for being a "lightweight" or having "low energy" or "low enthusiasm."

12. Anyone mentions Tom Brady or Deflategate.

13. Anyone calls Black Lives Matter a "hate group," argues that BLM or Barack Obama have endangered the lives of police, or pulls a "What about black-on-black crime?" line.

14. A candidate mentions the founders. Double shot if it's Rand Paul.

15. Carson invokes the Bible as an authority for something that has nothing to do with the Bible, like tax policy.

16. A candidate says, "I'm the only person on this stage who…" Double shot if it's Carson saying something like, "I'm the only candidate who's had his hands inside a human thorax."

17, Anyone mentions Hitler, Nazis or Neville Chamberlain. Includes related imagery, e.g. "ovens."

18. A candidate stumbles over what to call ISIS/ISIL, or mispronounces the name of a world leader.

19. Anyone mentions the Governator or makes a Terminator-themed joke, e.g. "To illegal immigrants, I say, Hasta La Vista."

Drink EVERY TIME you hear:

20. "Anchor babies."

21. "Thug."

22. "Leading from behind."

23. "All lives matter."

24. "Apologize for America."

25. "Eye-ran."

Take a shot of JAGERMEISTER if:

26. Anyone compares Kim Davis to Rosa Parks.

27. Any candidate is seen wearing a Blue Lives Matter bracelet.

28. A candidate offers an insincere paean to departed Rick Perry. Double shot if someone references his "smart glasses."

Bump for Dr. Detroit.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

lol at 7, 15, and 26

 

[lod01]

Tim>set up the rules

Everyone will be in a coma with this crew of losers surrounding The Trumpster.

 

[Dickies]

I am going to attempt this drinking game, but I'm not sure I have enough beers in the fridge.

 

[SkyRattlers]

CNN Stream working for anyone? Can't get it to work on any of my browsers

 

[Dickies]

lod01 should be CNN's debate commentator

Ok, we get it.

 

[SIDA!]

Are we sticking to this thread for the debate or are we jumping back and forth to Lady and the Trump?

 

[Doctor Detroit]

There are snakes on the plane!

And outside the plane!

 

[lod01]

lod01 should be CNN's debate commentator

I'd make the wear numbers so I don't have to know their names, Only Trump would not have to wear one.

 

[timschochet]

I think Huckabee might weigh as much as Christie.

 

[SIDA!]

I wish Jim Rome could run Rand Paul two seconds into his opening pitch there...

 

[timschochet]

Emails mentioned! DRINK!

 

[Capella]

Ted Cruz just used his sexy voice.

 

[lod01]

I think Huckabee might weigh as much as Christie.
