The 12th Republican Presidential Debate 2016 by CNN/Salem/Washington Times [March 10] [8:30pm EST]

We have to make money from the Saudis! They're Muslims!

Stop cucking, Rubio. Anti-Americanism is rampant in the Muslim world, give me a break.

Edit: "Not all Muslims are bad! Think of the war heroes!"

"Palestinians are 100% scum, kill 'em all, praise Israel!"

They’re back. And directly back to Trump, who said “Islam hates us.” Did you mean all 1.6bn Muslims?

“I mean a lot of them. I mean a lot of them,” Trump says.

“There’s something going on, that maybe you don’t know about...and I will stick with exactly what I said.”

He’s applauded.

Rubio is asked about supporter Senator Jeff Flake who called Trump’s comments not in keeping with the Republican party.

“Presidents just can’t say anything they want. It has consequences, here and around the world.”

Applause line.

He says he met missionaries in Bangladesh who rely on friendly Muslims who told him that today because of leading US figures saying Americans don’t like Muslims – it’s hard to work as a missionary in Bangladesh.

Trump gets the mic back and invokes 9/11. “I don’t want to be so politically correct, I like to solve problems,” Trump says. “Large portions of a group of people, Islam,” want to attack the US. “There is tremendous hatred.”

“I’m not interested in being politically correct,” Rubio replies. “I’m interested in being correct.” He says that Islam has a problem on its hands, but that the USA must work with Jordan, the Saudis, gulf states and Egypt – “people of the Muslim faith, even as Islam faces a crisis.”

Strong applause. The crowd awards the exchange to Rubio.


Kasich says he does not believe that “Islam hates us.” He recapitulates Rubio’s point that the USA needs Muslim partners to combat “radical Islam.”

Kasich says radical Islam is an enemy of “other Muslims.”
 
lol these guys are idiots, kasich seriously has no idea at all about what islam is.
 
Trump wants to expand our laws to be more like terrorists?
 
Rubio just referred to our Intelligence Agencies as "hamstrung."

I just don't know what the hell to say.
 
How would Marco or any politician know how to defeat terrorists?

The US hasn't defeated an insurgent uprising since the Philippine conflict. We've been losing hearts and minds since the 1960s, and we've been fighting this same war now for 15 years, with no end in sight.
 
Rubio is a total moron, might murica military to defeat an ideology which has survived and expended for 1500 years.

He thinks making the Military bigger and stronger will defeat an ideology. I honestly hope he doesn't believe the shit he spews from his mouth and only said what he said to cater to the base

Trump is asked about his prescription to “take out the families of terrorists”. How does he square that with Geneva Convention proscriptions against killing civilians?

Trump brings up waterboarding. We can’t – but they can drown people in “big steel cages.”

“We have to obey the laws, but we have to expand those laws, because we have to be able to fight on somewhat of an equal footing.. or we’ll be a bunch of suckers and they are laughing at us,” Trump says.

Rubio’s asked if he would target families of terrorist suspects.

“No, of course not,” he says. It’s not smart policy, he says. Instead intelligence agencies should find terrorists and a rebuilt military should do the same.

Rubio says terror suspects are “not gonna have a right to remain silent” but they’ll go to the prison at Guantanamo.

Cruz agrees he would not kill terrorist suspects’ families.

“No of course not, we’ve never targeted innocent civilians and we’re not going to start now,” Cruz says, in the fashion of CIA director John Brennan, who has said the US drone programs have resulted in no civilian casualties.
 
Trump falling over his dick on Israel there.
It's gotta be tough for him on issues where he actually has a reasonable position. He's right that we must maintain some neutrality toward Palenstine if there is any hope of getting a deal to stick. He wasn't even lying but in the context of a republican debate, it will be seen as dishonest.

id bet he really is ignorant enough to think that. he seems emotionally into the crap he spews.
not just pandering to fools.
 
Ted is just basically swagger jacking Trump this whole election, it started with building a wall, and now he's basically trying to steal his trade views

About time we have someone who doesnt have their head up their ass. Fuck yes...

How do you defeat a terrorist?? Become one yourself. Motherfucker!!!!

Trump is pushed by Cruz for saying he, Trump, hoped to be an honest broker in the Middle East conflict.

Trump says he’s the most pro-Israel candidate on stage. He’s booed a bit for that – the first booing of the night.

“I happen to have a son-in-law and a daughter that are Jewish, OK?” Trump says.
