I will keep doing, but not worth it! The 2016 Presidential Primary Voting Thread

So Biden literally apologized to Mexico today for the American political landscape. Hey, I wonder if the Republicans will try to use that.

And now, Jay Nordlinger's love letter to Ted Cruz.

The media as a whole refused to take him seriously until they were finally forced to by his stubbornly high poll numbers. I don't think refusing to take him seriously is an option at this point.

uh the media has had trump coverage non-stop ever since his carnival style campaign kick off announcement where he descended from a golden escalator.

the media covered him because he's a circus and it gets clicks/viewers; taking him seriously is a different thing

Also, he likes video games, played on a phone.

so there's a thread for Republican misuse of popular music, but...

They've played the Fox "I'm not paying for that fucking wall" clip about six times on CNN tonight, followed by laughter every time. It is pretty great.

There was also a lot of skepticism that Trump could actually turn high poll numbers into actual votes.

This is going to be a fantastic debate. It's going to be so nasty, at one point John Kasich will break down crying and leave the stage.

God, I'd hate to be Vance Plubus and have to give that preamble before every debate.

Only chance for Cruz or Rubio is to throw the Hail Mary and go all-out on Trump, call him out as a fascist.

i believe the only thing that would've taken him down is "liberal" and that just didn't stick.

this monday night football voiceover/soundtrack and ppl wonder where donald trump came from

H.W. looks pretty frail.

That handshake between Trump and Cruz...

are they really doing the national anthem before this

i can just see some guy scooching back in his seat holding a cardboard tray of hot dogs, sodas, pretzels with mustard...

whoa boy

Jindal and Walker manning the exits--they're going to hold Trump hostage for the next ten months.

These "Purge" ads are freaking me out

so i've never actually watched one of these debates and it's amazing how little trump actually says, even compared to the rest of these guys

Trump's got the Arpaio endorsement, what does he really need to say?

A good shot from Rubio

Pro Wrestling intro by CNN. Amazing - “Donald Trump: On a winning streak!” “Marco Rubio: Gaining new momentum!” “Ted Cruz: On his home turf in Texas!” “John Kasich: Looking forward!” “Ben Carson: Fighting on!”

I'm surprised--I figured Rubio would hang back again.

trump attacking the audience now, lol

this can only get wilder

love love love Trump language policing other politicians

Rubio is killing it tonight

oh my god these two lol

yassssss Rubio on a roll

holy shit this is great

Jesus--I've gone from surprise to shock. Never expected this in a million years from Rubio.

describe how (not watching)

Really? I think he's doing dreadfully as always. What's to love?

WWE RAW

he's downed at least two bottles of fiji so far

xp

Carson and Kasich might as well be at a bar

rubio goes after trump for an impassioned minute and you think for a second maybe he could be the guy and then he gets asked about saying one thing in english and one thing in spanish and you remember how bad he is at this

the thing about this debate is that it probably changes nothing

I wasn't even saying he was hitting the mark every time--just that this kind of ambush from him wasn't expected. His line about a statute of limitations on lying was great, though.

Rubio coming off well tonight. He might be a mouthpiece for the establishment but I don't think that disqualifies him.

Kasich's Jack Kemp reference will reel in lots of Trump supporters.

Kasich is basically O'Malley now

I think it's possible that Trump will draw some Dems

Robertscare!

audience turning against trump a little

at all of these

trump got ZERO traction calling ted cruz a crazy zealot

yay, planned parenthood!

trump seems to be positioning himself for the general a little?
