The debate revealed a party wedded to the tenets of Bushism — rabid, debt-financed, regressive tax-cutting, reflexive hostility to regulation, and a pervasive anti-intellectualism. Trump at one point implicitly defended his lack of foreign-policy knowledge on the grounds that the current administration had many knowledgable people (true) and the world was on fire (questionable). This open attack on brainpower would have been astonishing, except that Marco Rubio repeated it himself, declaring, “Radical terrorism cannot be solved by intellect.”

I love Johnathan Chait. He really is worth posting 99 percent of the time.. thanks!

At least they have debates! Democratic Party tries to avoid having debates for their voters.

Heaven forbid if Democrats jeopardized their candidates to fact checking.

Amazing...Really.
