LOL I thought Desantis was pretty flat.

The opening statements by Haley and Christie were "normal" in the sense they addressed policy with specifics. I don't agree with their agendas, but both were very skilled and articulate, and struck me as having a sophisticated understanding of domestic policy. I thought Haley's remarks on Iran were the exception though, extremely simplistic and mostly following the neocon/Fox line on the ME.

Ramaswamy was the only one actuality transmitting from planet MAGA. Totally agree with Haley that Putin and Xi would be "salivating" at the prospect of that guy becoming president. Quite the opening statement--going after the press for the Russia "hoax" and HB laptop. "An ACCOUNTING" he wants. Whatever would that look like? Pretty easy to prove that the press reported the Trump campaign's myriad contacts with Russian spies. What should happen to them for reporting news Trump doesn't like?  https://www.axios.com/2023/11/09/vivek-ramaswamy-unhinged-third-republican-debate

Scott was pretty weak throughout. I disagree with his policies and don't think he is especially knowledgeable. He communicates what some, especially Evangelicals, want. 

Interesting take considered it becomes more likely by the day Biden is compromised taking bribes from Russia, Ukraine and China. The evil of axis (China, Russia, Iran and North Korea) love Biden's appeasement and weak foreign policy. So much so that that Russia started a war with Ukraine and Iran (Hamas) started a war with Israel.

As for the attack on NBC moderator, HE SPOKE THE TRUTH. NBC AND MANY OTHER LIBERAL NEWS OUTLETS DID NO INVESTIGATIONS AND INSTEAD LIED OVER AND OVER AGAIN. IT IS A FACT AND GLAD HE REMINDED EVERYONE ON NATIONAL TV.
