I like the idea of cutting foreign aid to countries who don't like us. Makes sense since we're sending borrowed money. However, I would keep the military strong.

Christie hasn't impressed me at all tonight. He's "republican lite", "diet republican", "fewer calories, less filling".

Trump's net worth may be impressive, but little of that are actually cash assets.
Ross Perot spent about $65 million of his own money in 1992. If Mr. Trump has at least a couple of billions in cash, that is manageable. Moreover, his rabid supporters would dig deep into their pockets to send in tons of coins to Mr. Trump's campaign.

We could just raise taxes on those Minimum wage workers ... would be enough to give Israel all the money they need.

Looks to me like Christie has more calories than the rest of them.
