This really is a SuperBowl pre-game show.

We should just let ESPN run these from now on.

Bonus: We'd hear a lot more about their actual records.
 
People thinking Trump's rant will hurt him are crazy. This is exactly what people love about him and hate about Jeb, special interests, big donors, etc. The constant booing only reinforced everything he was saying and proved his point.
 
Best moment so far is Rubio going back into speech mode after Christie just called him out for it. I hope that gets played back for awhile.
 
I think Trump has begun his shift to the left for the GE. I don't think that's a good idea yet.
Still, that was impressive.

So how true or full of shit is Trump about RNC controlling the audience to all be donors (none of which are for Trump).

he isn't. These are either donors, campaign staffers, etc. debates have been known to be "stacked" with members favorable to a certain point of view before.
 
Yeah, I'm not getting the "Trump is failing" bit. He had two audiences boo him before this, and rose in the polls.

Every single one of these crowds is RNC planted.
 
is this the dark timeline where christie is the nominee and indicts hillary for emails and mccarthy style indicts bernie for being a communist?
 
These dumb ass commentators thinking Jeb scored points on Trump don't get it.
 
This crowd is oddly moderate. I mean, New Hampshire Republicans are much more moderate in general, but this crowd is in no way reflective of the state polling.

Trump asked about eminent domain in regards to New Hampshire's Northern Pass. He doesn't say anything about that issue, but defends general eminent domain use.

Jeb tearing into Trump over his exploitation of eminent domain for private purposes.

Crowd boos Trump, he declares the audience to all be special interests and Jeb donors. Audience and Trump exchange a couple more boos and attacks.

Jeb claims Keystone Pipeline to be a public purpose, good use of eminent domain.
 
I'd pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars for and travel to a Presidential primary debate if you told me the format was carried mics and open floor walking.

Trump just sealed the deal in New Hampshire. This is what the voters are sick of.

I don't think so.

It may be an audience of donors, but optics are important. I can't imagine Trump trying to fight against a crowd literally booing him with "Everyone loves me!" is going to look good to a lot of people.

I still expect him to win NH, but I expect his lead to narrow.
