I love watching all of them attack each other. It all helps Donald Trump.

As someone who has watched these debates for a couple of decades, these candidates are not particularly strong debaters.

What kind of out of touch world do these people live in?

Do they ever go fishing? Shooting? Hunting? Go to a Walmart or a Target? Eat at Arbys or McDonalds?

I get the feeling all of the people on this stage are so far from mainstream America, it's almost perplexing.

This is coming from a supporter of a guy who sh**ts in a gold toilet atop a penthouse

Right but Donald Jr came to Ohio and spoke about hunting. Trump eats McDonalds. Atleast they try and blend in.

You're confusing rich people and elites.

Uh. You realize that white non-metropolitan America is not the norm, right?

It is for the electoral college, buddy buddy. Wink

I'm picturing a laid-off steel worker in Pennsylvania watching this argument about Twitter trolls among presidential candidates and I'm becoming more confident in Trump's re-election by the second.

Bingo.

P.S. Mayor Pete's staring face is actually quite stupid looking.

Why do they keep putting their hands up like retards? Put them down. They look like the crazy guys in Patch Adams.

After this debate, I'll agree with one thing. Kansas is DEFINITELY a toss-up with Bloomberg.

What if they rip Bloomberg so much that he runs as a third party?

Mike is winning.  Regular people love this.  Like me.

My 63-year-old chardonnay-loving mother who believes in beating Trump at all costs is watching this with me and thinks Bloomberg seems mentally incompetent.

I don't think shes normal...

I'm drinking a cab.  And I just texted my dad.  He agrees.

I'm drinking cab too, and honestly (I swear on Trump's re-election), I ALMOST feel bad what awful shape the Democrats are in.

This debates shows that the earliest they will be back in the White House is 2025. Maybe.

They're wrong about the tax code. If anything, America's tax code is rigged against those who make money. The second you make a decent amount of money, what happens? The government takes a big bite of it.

Bloomberg is going kamikaze though. If I were there behind the stage tonight, I'd say to him, "Mike, what the hell are you doing on stage with these morons?"

I think the Democrats make an error when discussing "working class" and "middle class" people. When they talk about them, and you actually listen, they're not talking about working class people who make 30, 40, 50K a year. That's what I make, and I'm far and away no where NEAR "rich". When democrats discuss these things, they're talking about people below the poverty line. In my state the federal poverty guidelines are around 17K a year. I know people broke as a joke and don't have a pot to piss in and even they still exceed the federal or state poverty lines. So when democrats discuss "working class" people, they may actually be referring to poor people. Like East Cleveland poor. Really, really poor.

Biden: Economy is bad. WHen it was Obama's economy though working people were doing great but now cause Trump is president they are doing bad.

George W. Bush is at the ranch asking Laura, "So should I jump in the race or not?"

1. This was the first Democratic Debate I've watched in it's entirety since possibly 2008.

2. I realize even more right now how likely Donald Trump's re-election as President is in 2020.
