3. I decided at the last minute to watch his show, only to "unFox" the debate numbers.

I certain despise Trump. In fact, watching this nonsense is surreal. I truly cannot fathom how anyone can look up to this asshole.

Right now some troll who donated money to the vets is talking. His beautiful wife is standing to his side.

Trump is back on. It's been a half hour and he hasn't talked about ANY issues so far. It's all logistics and crowd size and vet lip service.

Surreal.

10. I watched him bullshit his way through that interview with Brianna...

and she did her best, but trump is among the best of the bullshitters.

Then the panel did little to hide their disgust of Trump. They understood his magical ability to not answer a question and change the subject.

Distraction, diversion... And Trump has the gall to claim he's not a politician.

12. I don't find him masterful. I find him adolescent. Really.

Rachel and Don cut him off when started telling the truth, so now I'm live streaming from http://time.com/4198601/donald-trump-veterans-event-rally-watch-live-stream-online/. Assholes Santorum and Huckabee have been running their mouths.

20. Yes, adolescent, and the best quote so far...

is someone saying his worst fear is being ignored.

He found out years ago that his mouth can't get him in trouble. Everything he says is dutifully reported, but never challenged.

A nasty little kid, but it works.

Lets see if there's ever an accounting of whether the alleged pledges for vets are ever paid, and then if his foundation gives any of it to vets.

Funny how they thought they could dispatch Trump in the first debate with a couple of snarky questions and casually go on to getting their establishment candidate of choice elected with no problems.

9. He was just talking about how corrupt Congress is and Rachel cut into him.

I checked Don Lemon and a commercial was on.

They kept Trump on while he was talking foolishness but once he got into the truth, they cut him off.

11. Surreal. Santorum and Huckabee are standing on that stage

with a "Trump for president" banner right below. His direct rivals standing there on a podium with their rival's campaign sign, shaking his hand.

You've got to give to the guy.

He has got the best bang for his campaign buck in terms of getting nearly all free media coverage I've ever seen.

(hate saying that because I can't stand him)

16. I'm done. I can't watch any more of this asshole, especially not after that

moronic desk story by Huckabee. It didn't even make sense.

Arrgh! My brain HURTS.

17. Talk about dysfunctional

Trump has created a situation where the GOP side of things are so scrambled that it's total dysfunction. He's made it where no one in the GOP knows which side to be on and has created total confusion. They're basically attacking one another at some point.
