Republican GOP debate

The Fox Business Network/Wall Street Journal debate occurred on November 10th. Rubio and others took the no-apologies stance in support of a stronger U.S. military. The response was that Rand Paul argued against military spending and intervention and questioned how Rubio could call himself a conservative while supporting bigger budgets. "I want a strong national defense, but I don't want us to be bankrupt," Paul said, while Rubio called him a "committed isolationist." The middle- and lower-tier candidates refuse to cede ground in the race, even as Trump and Ben Carson dominate in the polls. Jeb Bush  took shots at President Obama's economic record and Trump's immigration plan. Bush said ""They're doing high fives in the Clinton campaign right now when they hear this," of Trump's call to deport millions.Trump was asked whether he'd deport the millions in the country illegally, he said, "We have no choice." When told to consider the families by Kasich, he responded by saying that he didn't have to listen to what Kasich was saying. Back up by Jeb Bush, Kasich continued to slam Trump's plan on immigration. When Trump suggested the U.S. cannot be the world's policeman, Bush said "he is absolutely wrong on this" and the U.S. needs to be the "world's leader."

Fiorina stepped in saying "The U.S. needs to have the strongest military on the planet and everyone has to know it." Paul responded with: "You can be strong without being involved in every civil war in the world." Personally, I think Rand Paul did a great job with this debate. I agree with his stance that we should have a strong military, but we don't need to constantly be involved in wars. It's expensive and lots of lives are lost. I don't agree with a lot of what Trump says, and I definitely don't agree with his immigration plan. I think it is insensitive. Yes, illegal immigration is a problem in the US, but this is definitely not the right way to handle it.
