Yes, and I think she'll play a big role in future GOP campaigns.

Maybe not Campaign Manager ... they could make a new role just for her, Director of Damage Control.

Then she is in one hell of a training course.

He said the only person worth listening to.


Which is weird because Jeb wasn't even on the stage.

Bernie Sanders fails to understand the importance of Race as the deciding factor in the fate of nations. I also have it on good authority that he might be a member of a particular group of tightly connected international financiers and bankers.
I'm a Fascist and i believe the constitution should be suspended. All enemies of the state should be rounded up and permanently deported.

Yeah because the incoherent meaningless bullshit and conspiracy theories that Trump pushed the whole debate were worth listening to.


Maybe there were more xenophobic dogwhistles in his bullshit, than you or I noticed ..?

I noticed "bad hombres" but that's more of train whistle than a dog whistle :p

I honestly interpreted that as 'apologize for groping random women' not 'apologize for the video'.

Of course, his word salad can often lead to many interpretations.

It didn't go well for the states that disputed the election, if you'll recall.
