Republican debate runs off the rails and turns into all-out war as Trump bashes John Kasich, Jeb hits his protege Marco Rubio, and EVERYONE hammers CNBC's moderators for losing control
CNBC hosts progressively lost control of the event
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz turned openly hostile, accusing them all of being Democrats intent on damaging the GOP field
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie soon piled on the network
Donald Trump wrapped up his night by claiming he had strong-armed them into shortening the debate 'so we can get the hell out of here'
'CNBC should be ashamed of how this debate was handled,' Republican Party chairman Reince Priebus said.

Claims of media bias became a major theme of the night, with Cruz letting loose the night's first scathing barrage against moderators Carl Quintanilla, Becky Quick and John Harwood.

Last night was worse.

"The reality is that every single candidate on stage has a tax plan meant to screw over the entire country so that the already wealthy can buy bigger yachts, just as it was under Bush and every Republican before him. Rubio and Bush’s tax plans require cutting so much federal spending it would tank the economy, all so that the Donald Trumps of the world can finally start wiping themselves with gold cloth instead of mere silk sheets. A few dollars thrown to middle class voters in the short term cannot hide the fact that it’s a terrible idea to grind our economy to a halt to make the rich even richer.

The flat taxers are even dumber, which is saying a lot. It is, as it always was, just about giving a bunch of money to the rich by gouging working people.

But such is the power of fantasy in this election cycle. The Republican voters clearly want to believe that they you’re sticking it to the rich by lowering their taxes and somehow that you can afford all of this, while also balancing the budget, while seriously reducing the government’s ability to earn income. Oh yeah, and while we’re in fantasy land, Ted Cruz even went so far as to claim he could abolish the IRS. Maybe we can do this without collecting any income taxes at all!

At this point, there’s no reason for Republicans not to nominate Donald Trump. You almost have to feel sorry for the guy. Everyone calls him out for being full of shit, but, sit through enough Republican debates and you quickly realize he is no more so than the rest of this sorry field."

Would the moderators at the Hillary debate ask her why she told everyone that mattered that the Riot at our embassy in Libya was not spontaneous and had ties to Al Qaeda. Then told the families that it was all about a video. 7 officers were sent to perk walk him in front of the media. And you even went in front of the UN and told that story.

Or as Berrnie Sanders about his love for Fidel Castro.

I thought O'Mally was going to pee his pants after the moderator asked him to explain his comments about Hillary and political dynasties.

You know when you only have one job, moderator, you should do just that. Now to go along with it, CNBC was trying to drive rating up by having the candidates bash each other. They were trying to get a Kardashian moment. What they got was to look like a hack job news agency that they are. I would just as soon be ignorant of what is happening in the world as to get it from CNBC.

Obvious bias. This is why CNBC, MSNBC, CNN ratings are tanking. Ted Cruz called them out accurately and in order. Nobody asked about issues that mattered. The mud fest backfired big time. Even mainstream media called them out for being unprofessional.

Looks like the clown car circus is in full bloom -- given the inadequacies of these clusterf**k clowns, how could you expect anything else.

Freudian slip I say. Not that there's a difference in their "reporting".
