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

[QuizGuy66]

We're recording a podcast after the main debate tonight. If you want to ask a question and have it answered on the air, ask it here. Thanks guys.

Are you going to have Jim Gilmore on?

We need to decide whether we want a stable, friendly, democratic Iraq (or Syria, or whatever), and if we're willing to commit tens of thousands of ground troops for the next twenty years to get it. If not, I'm thinking maybe we should just pack up and leave entirely.

If we leave, what are the long term negatives? A more powerful ISIS state committing all sorts of horrendous crimes? A threat to our oil supply?

Let Iran deal with ISIS? Let Saudi Arabia deal with ISIS? I'm not sure those are negatives at all. Price of oil goes up? How is that different than, say, a carbon tax? Seems like some, including you, would argue that's a good thing, no?

 

[Slapdash]

Love how CNN has to frame things so damn much already

 

[HellToupee]

The only hope & solution is if Mitt gets the band back together to rescue the day

 

[Doctor Detroit]

National Anthem? Hold on, I have to stand and salute. brb

 

[RnR]

We're singing the anthem before debates now? Where's the fly over?

 

[Capella]

Play ball

 

[timschochet]

It's Las Vegas, they ought to bring out that "Ready to Rumble" guy.

I'm not necessarily arguing with you on this Rich. The truth is I don't know what to do.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Shut up Wolf!

 

[krista4]

National Anthem? Hold on, I have to stand and salute. brb

I paused my TiVo because I didn't want to listen to this lady, and when I paused, a banner that said, "Vote Bartlet for America" popped up. I've done it a few times now and got things like "Vote Waldo," "Take Back Gotham City" and the like every time. Anyone else seeing this? Is this CNN or TiVo playing with us?

 

[Zegras11]

Shut up Wolf!

He's as bad as Berman

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

They couldn't put Rand at the kiddie table?

My last name is Bartlet, I'm in your TV.

 

[timschochet]

Really like Kasich.

Christie's tie is crooked

Christie's tie is crooked

What a mistake.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Fiorina is just not good, I'd vote for Carson before her.

 

[The_Man]

Fiorina is horrible. "Like all of you, I'm angry ... I buried a child."

 

[John Bender]

I hope Carson's solution to fight terrorism is sharks with lasers attached to their heads.

 

[SameSongNDance]

Bush

 

[eoMMan]

Is Trump there?

 

[mr roboto]

Did Bush even write an opening? He's so bad.

 

[Slapdash]

Before they destroy us?

 

[krista4]

Fiorina is horrible. "Like all of you, I'm angry ... I buried a child."

That speech was awful.

 

[Willie Neslon]

It's amazing how Bush always wilts under the lights. He just isn't a good candidate.

 

[eoMMan]

He looks like a big, Hispanic Ross Perot.

 

[John Bender]

Cruz looks like an overgrown elf.

 

[Righetti]

If Cruz would win he would have to go door to door on Pennsylvania avenue as part of his Megan's Law punishment

 

[mr roboto]

Cruz looks like an overgrown elf.

lol

 

[elbowrm]

Cruz looks like Danny Devito as the penguin.

Fiorina is horrible. "Like all of you, I'm angry ... I buried a child."

That speech was awful.

"I beat breast cancer, I have a dead child, vote for me!"

 

[Doctor Detroit]

He wasted his time on a moment of silence?

 

[Righetti]

He says Wolf like Woof

He says Hamas like Hummus

 

[mr roboto]

Carson using San Bernandino. Oof.

 

[timschochet]

Cruz is so creepy.

Did Ben Carson just have a 2 second moment of silence?

 

[Willie Neslon]

Moment of silence!

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Carson, Bush, and Fiorina should be thrown off the stage right now.

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

I want a Ben Carson suit.

 

[Righetti]

The lame physician analogies need to go

 

[Mr. Pickles]

The patient is the US.

 

[krista4]

He wasted his time on a moment of silence?

"in memorance"

 

[Capella]

Carson, not the president, asks congress to declare war

 

[HellToupee]

Unlike the NFL the GOP didn't want to pay for the fly over

 

[Amused to Death]

Cruz is so creepy.

Did Ben Carson just have a 2 second moment of silence?

I think he just needed a little more nap time before speaking.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Japan? WTF?

 

[CBusAlex]

He wasted his time on a moment of silence?

I don't think I could come up with a more Ben Carson way to start.
