Honestly, why doesn't anyone ever call Trump out on his "China's taking our jobs!!" rhetoric...

He says he did what he did because that's how the game is played, including lobbying. But its something he wants to change.

 

[Infinite Stars]

What the hell is Christie/Carson/Rubio/Cruz on?

Jeb's floundering like a fish, Kasich has barely had any time to speak, and Trump's just dominating everyone.

 

[Y2Kev]

Why does he keep saying her middle name like it's evil. Lol

Only liberal feminist elites have three names

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Jesus, Fuck! Goddammit, Carson! I get so mad every time you speak because you just don't give a half a shit. I care more about what you're saying than you do, and I fucking hate you! Have some goddamn enthusiasm, PLEASE.

 

[Makai]

My tax plan is the best. Just throwing it out there. Good night.

 

[RustyNails]

omg the zoom with carson's hands

gif it

We need a hand-off between Kasich and Carson.

 

[SlimySnake]

I still cant believe christie said that the would kick obama's rear end out of the white house. wtf.

 

[ChosenPredator]

Marco you blew it shirts incoming

 

[gutter_trash]

How is Rubio getting killed like this?

Kids from Florida can't handle men from Jersey and Manhattan

 

[danm999]

Carson when you make an appeal to authority you're supposed to name the authorities dude.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I hate to ever give Chris Christie credit for anything, but he destroyed ol' Dumbo there in that exchange.

 

[Karsticles]

I wish we'd stay on taxes, because that was the first bit of content since this started.

Back to protecting America? Ugh.

 

[Mass Effect]

Carson lol

 

[sangreal]

If we abolish the IRS, then who do we send our tax postcard to?

John Oliver did a piece on how stupid this is, because the IRS doesnt decide how much you get taxed -- they are just the ones that make sure everyone actually pays

[Pryce]

Fuck you Brody.

 

[Tesseract]

is this really going to keep going until 12 a.m.

save us, trump

 

[foxtrot3d]

lol the zoom in was pretty sloppy

Cameraman forgot he was on the stage.

 

[Sickboy007]

I was looking at some older (2008, 2012) GOP debates earlier.

Jesus, the level of debate has tanked immensely. And we're talking about Giuliani and Perry here, not exactly luminaries.

 

[FiggyCal]

Ya blew it

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Why the hell is this debate structure so manic?

TAXES
TERRORISM
BUDGET
WARS
IMMIGRATION
ISIS
ENTITLEMENTS

Just go from one thing to another and end it. Jumping back and forth is just confusing and lame.

 

[Darkangel]

YA BLEW IT!

Trump just found his VP.

Someone needs to give Carson a "participant" ribbon and tell him to step down.

 

[Xdrive05]

Yo magazines say I'm the best on taxes THAT'S ALL PEACE I'M OUT.

 

[Dennis]

So I had to step out for a moment.

Did anyone blow it while I was gone?

 

[Orbis Tabula]

save us, trump

This train goes all the way to Iowa, friend. It's a marathon.

Short attention spans.

 

[EatinOlives]

I still cant believe christie said that the would kick obama's rear end out of the white house. wtf.

Christie is flailing desperately to get the "tell-it-like-it-is" reputation back from Trump. He'll say anything at this point.

It's driving me nuts, too.

 

[Jeels]

This

A flat tax hurts the more people.

Oh Christie vs Rubio bad blood

Apparently people in favor of a flat tax can't do basic math.

 

[GavinGT]

As opposed to Hillary, who would let him rent out a room for a few months until he gets back on his feet.

 

[adj_noun]

edit: d'oh

 

[Maxim726X]

So... Nothing will change.

No one can stop the Trump train now. He's probably going to be the Republican nominee.

 

[Grover]

Ya blew it

this resembles a young Lindsay Graham lol

EDIT: woops

 

[gutter_trash]

YA BLEW IT!

Nah, Carson is needed to lighten things up between firey exchanges

 

[Makai]

I just wanna say this is way better than the last Fox Business debate, sans Rand Paul hero music.

Don't want to give the audience too much time to actually think about an issue, or risk the candidates running out of platitudes

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I like how somehow abolishing the IRS (and the 90,000 jobs that go with it) is somehow a bullet point here.

 

[Valhelm]

As opposed to Hillary, who would let him rent out a room for a few months until he gets back on his feet.

She'll give him a cabinet position just to keep him around

 

[crisdecuba]

Damn, this debate is long.

 

[Mrbob]

Yup. Too busy fighting each other when they all needed to go after Trump and only Trump.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

I almost feel sorry for the Republican establishment.

Their two frontrunners are the two they hate the most, and it's pretty likely one of those two will be the nominee.

 

[B-Dubs]

That's actually a decent question.

 

[FiggyCal]

I just wanna say this is way better than the last Fox Business debate, sans Rand Paul hero music.

I was wondering why this debate was so much better than the others. It's probably because Rand Paul isn't ruining it for everyone.

 

[undrtakr900]

They do all the time tbf. It's one of his key points of his campaign. He took advantage of the system...knows it well it enough to fix it etc

i think they did in the very first debate but everyone just laughed about it and moved on

his answer to that is that American policies left him no choice and he hates the fact that he had to go to China to get those made

it comes up pretty often actually

He says he did what he did because that's how the game is played, including lobbying. But its something he wants to change.

Ah okay that makes sense, Trump is the master of spinning questions around so it doesn't reflect bad on himself. I wonder if he would impose a "tariff" on his own clothes (except Trump now says he never said that and moderators just go "okay..my mistake")

 

[Syncytia]

"That same up here, whatever it may be"

What's in your head Donald?

 

[Makai]

Whatever's up here. Maybe Ben can help him figure it out.

 

[OctoMan]

Trumpppppp

 

[dmr87]

Run the company kids

 

[valkillmore]

Damn, this debate is long.

It's only been two hours!

 

[Maxim726X]

Yup. Too busy fighting each other when they all needed to go after Trump and only Trump.

The only time he was attacked was by Cruz in the beginning. Other than that, nothing was done by anyone else. No one will challenge him.
