Donald Trump Remains Clear GOP Frontrunner After CNN Debate
Yet for the first 20 minutes, the front-runner seemed barely to be there, not hitting anyone who didn’t hit him first. Jeb Bush tried by taking on Mr Trump, and Mr Bush will probably get a fair amount of publicity from that.

‘He said that very simply because he has failed in his campaign.
Rubio and Cruz also had opposing views on what authorities the government should have to monitor Americans’ communications. He’s more vulnerable on the issue than Cruz because he backed the path to citizenship, co-wrote the immigration bill and served as its lead proponent to conservatives. He promised not to.
It’s not that Trump had a flawless night.
The challenge Clinton will face, if she’s the Democratic nominee, is whether smaller shifts on foreign policy are enough for voters.
“He sees the writing on the wall, so now he’s throwing caution to the wind even with respect to Trump mania and is trying to pull every rabbit out of the hat”, he said. Cruz’s support for that program has been a way to insulate himself not just from a base quick to label any moderation as amnesty, but also from his unwillingness to say what he would do with the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States.
Trump then mocked Bush for being a ‘tough guy’.
“I promise you the next time there is an attack on this country, the first thing people are going to want to know is why didn’t we know about it and why didn’t we stop it, and the answer had better not be because we didn’t have access to records or information that would have allowed us to identify these killers before they attacked”, he said during the debate. You’re moving over further and further.
“You’re never going to be president of the United States by insulting your way to the presidency”, said Bush, who was once seen as a frontrunner, but whose campaign has struggled to gain momentum.
So kudos to Carla Hernandez from Austin, Texas, and to CNN for including her. Hernandez raised this matter pointedly in a video, asking: “If the Bible clearly states that we need to embrace those in need and not fear, how can we justify not accepting refugees?”
I’m sure this made ideal sense in Carson’s head, but for the rest of us it sounds like he thinks we should “finish the job” (of killing a bunch of kids?) and they’ll love him for it later on.
Nonetheless, with the exception of Sen. On the other were those skeptical of “getting stuck in Middle Eastern civil wars”, as Cruz put it, or “toppling secular dictators in the Middle East”, as Rand Paul said. “I didn’t watch it”, said Burr, a North Carolina Republican. And they don’t like me very much at that point. But later on, they love me. If he spends his debate night defending his proposed ban on Muslims or his idea to “take out” terrorists’ families or his suggestion to shut down parts of the Internet, that doesn’t even merit a headline. He hedged by coming up with an entirely new tactic: pinpoint carpet-bombing.
“Everyone on that stage talks tough”. We are now at a time when we need more tools, not less tools.
He wasn’t alone in fumbling this question. He openly discussed the necessity of ground troops to defeat ISIS, reminded the audience of a necessary propaganda war against the terror army, detailed the damage military cuts have done to US capability around the world and declared that enemy combatants should be treated as such, not as criminals who are read Miranda rights.

At the so-called “undercard” debate of low-polling candidates, held before the main event, former New York Governor George Pataki blasted Trump’s Muslim proposal as “un-American, unconstitutional, and it is wrong”. No one else dared to take on Trump. But Cruz is getting close.
