There will be booing for Trump.

Damn is there enough clutter on the cbs live stream? I am expecting to see scrolling Chinese and emojis at any second. At least there is a legal stream I guess.

looks like Rubio,Cruz, and Jeb have the audience stacked. They got the most claps during the introductions.

Cant wait to see Robot Rubio not try to be scripted and throw Obama sucks for claps strategy

Don't drink the cool-aid!!!

Interesting that when this news happens the same day as the Republican debate...it's the first topic.
When news broke the same day as the Democrat debate that the Clinton Foundation received a subpoena ...PBS didn't ask Hillary about it the entire debate.

Why would they ask a question of a candidate in which the candidate may be legally obligated to not discuss publicly?

There goes Rubio. He throws Barack Obama on just about every question he is asked.

"May be"
They shouldn't even ASK her about it?

Republicans seem to complain a lot about the time they get on stage.

If they want more time, perhaps they need to stop running so damned many candidates.

Just a thought.

Yeah...Two old white political fossils running against each other is always much better.
