Ted Cruz is an incredible man, and it's unfortunate that he didn't get further.

Go Trump!

Unfortunately, it looks like it's going to be on at the same time as the Stars' first preseason game, so I don't know if I'll be able to listen... ;)

More seriously, debates are really only for people that might change their mind. I can't imagine anything likely to happen that could compel me to willingly vote for Hillary, so there's no real point in my listening to her 'debate'. I might listen to it if I want to think about giving Trump a second (or third, or fourth, or fifth...) chance, but the damage has been done; what he says now won't change what he's already said. Mainly, I'd just be listening to see if he says anything else stupid or outrageously offensive, to consider in my bag of 'evidence' when I decide whether to vote for him or protest vote, and I know the negative news stories and sound bites that I anticipate coming forward in the next few days will be able to hook me up with that information without me having to spend however many hours listening to him.

My big "why you shouldn't vote for Trump" is that he doesn't understand why we don't use our nukes. He's literally said that he wants to nuke the Middle East.

Hillary, on the other hand, has not said she wants to nuke the Middle East.

I wouldn't go so far as to say go Trump, but may the least awful candidate win. :P

This debate is getting heated, and Trump keeps roasting Hillary.
I want the world of Tolkien,
The message of Lewis;
The adventure of Jacques,
And the heart of Milne.
But I want the originality of me.

EVERYONE LIKES CRUZ when I think if we have to have one of those guys it'd be Trump but that's a have, I'm certainly still hoping Hillary gets some fire and roasts Trump.

HE SHOULD FEEL THE BERN EVEN IF IT'S NOT COMING FROM BERNIE....

and I'm sorry, but Cruz seems too... :/

I cringe when these people start interrupting each other and the moderator.

Because you're a mod yourself? ;)
