This debate was just a shitshow on all fronts. Everybody should be embarassed, not just the moderators. The moderators had bullshit, 'gotcha', and plain venomous shit. I mean come the fuck on at asking Huckabee about Trump's moral authority. At least have the balls to ask Trump himself instead of trying to generate in-fighting. The moderators clearly didn't do enough research on their own sources and so when the candidates called them out on it, the moderators looked woefully unprepared. They should have been much better prepared considering this bunch will lie with no fucks given. Not to mention it was clear the moderators got yelled at during the first commercial break so they looked defanged in comparison for the rest of the time. The moderators also did an atrocious job of time management/allocation and making the candidates stay on topic.
The crowd themselves acted like this was a damn wrestling event with the boos. Even if the question is inappropriate, let the candidates state that, instead of the crowd interjecting as such and just completely poisoning the well. There were some good questions that the candidates such as Carson didn't have to seriously answer because the crowd did it for him.
The candidates themselves were especially scummy last night with many of them blaming the liberal media (which CNBC sure as fuck isn't going by the predebate coverage). Most of them blatantly lied and when got called out, shrugged their shoulders and said whatever. The in-fighting was funny but still makes the debate come off as a circus. The candidates even when given simple questions said fuck that and did their own thing. Kasich set the tone last night when he went off the rails in the very first question. Instead of Cruz actually answering the question he was assigned, he instead goes on this rant about the debate.
This was an actual debate with candidates running for the most powerful office in the world. Fucking shameful display on all fronts.
