TUESDAY ON FOX NEWS WEEKDAYS AT 10PM EST

Can Donald Trump really help with the immigration crisis? Plus, where do the candidates stand on the issue of race in America? And, post-debate reaction from Mike Huckabee and Rand Paul

http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/hannity/

[jct74]

Was he on yet? I haven't been watching.

[supermario21]

Is Hannity at 1 or midnight? The schedule always changes post debates. O'Reilly is live now.

Midnight Central and 1 a.m. Eastern.

[supermario21]

Of course Trump is up first

[supermario21]

I think Rand is about to be on now..

[dannno]

I think Rand is about to be on now..

Nope... just a panel talking about Rand.....sorta at least...

[trey4sports]

God i hate the GOP....

[dusman]

Coming up next, supposedly.

[dannno]

Omg... hard to admit Hannity just made me drool when he said he wanted America to become the world's corporate tax haven :D

[PCKY]

Rand up next...full court Fox push of Rubio. He's next on the "surge" list.

[dusman]

Rand up now.

[dusman]

Rand up now.

I hope you all didn't blink, cause he's off now.

[TER]

Rand setting his sights now on Rubio....

[RecoveringNeoCon]

That went REALLY well. Hannity let him speak. Rand set himself apart from Rubio with great clarity.

Great way to end the night.

I suspect rand will start to creep up on that 2nd tier. :D

[WeTheVigilant]

I'm worried that Rand's view on cutting military spending is going to alienate GOP voters

[specsaregood]

Let me ease your mind. The voter that is going to decide his vote based on Randal's position on military spending was NEVER going to vote for him, no matter what he says.

[Kurt Evans]

The military-industrial complex is worried that Rand is going to change GOP voters' minds. :)

[dannno]

Krautheimer is defending Rand against O'Reilly right now, can somebody queue the twighlight zone music???

O'Reilly is implying that Rand doesn't want to spend *any* money on the military... LOOL

[Rudeman]

I think he'll be fine as long as he doesn't go the "blame America" route. Even if it's true they don't want to hear it, it'll turn them defensive and they'll tune him out. If he makes it a fiscal/policy issue then people will at least listen to it even if they might disagree. I've seen several mention that Rand made some good points instead of just outright dismissing him as a loony isolationist even on websites that aren't very friendly to Rand.

LOL, I just posted this in the other thread before I saw your comment...


LOL, thank you for confiming that I wasn't just imagining that.

Krauthammer praising and defending Rand against Oreilly...

I'm not a big fan of George Will, but I'll admit I enjoyed it when he made O'Reilly cry this week:

This was an absolute thing of beauty. After watching Bill O'Reilly's snarky, dismissive assessment of the GOP debate, it was good to see this guy get worked over. I hope more people go after Bill-O on his B.S. books. I managed to suffer through both Killing Lincoln and Killing Kennedy and both of them were utterly terrible reads, loaded with factual errors, and a testament of a man whose ego is too big to fit in the continental United States.

Republicans would argue Bill is too big to fail.

That's what some argue about Christie

[Matthanuf06]

I thought that was a good interview. This is a topic that can help Rand or really sink him. And it's all about messaging.

He cannot blame America
He cannot act like he won't spend anything
He has to be clear that he will defend the nation and will get involved

In my opinion is he needs to focus on how much we spend vs other countries.

Use metaphors, stories, and emotion to emphasize that even if we reduce our military it'll still be wayyyy bigger than any of our "competitors"

The story I would give:

"Imagine your neighbors being in a modest 2 bedroom 1 bath house. They are doing a good job fixing it and modernizing it. You live next door in a 8 bedroom 5 bath house with all the bells and whistles. That is the difference between our militaries. We are clearly bigger stronger and much much more costly.

But are we more powerful? The problem is weve gotten our mortgage through our neighbors, China. We don't own the house. We are making payments to China. We all know what happened during the housing crisis. What if China does the same to us? Is that powerful? Their 2 bedroom house looks a lot stronger once you know they hold those cards....

What I propose is that we slim down our house but buy it outright. We can go to a 5 bed 3 bath house. Still much bigger, nicer, newer than China's. However they'd no longer be our lender. They can no longer boot us out.

We'd own tbe bigger baddest newest military on the planet rather than just borrowing one. So which scenario would we have more power?"

I like something like that because the average American can relate to it. They'd understand it. Right now their concept of power is ALL about size and not about ownership. Rand needs to frame it

he does that all the time and even did it in the debate last night...open your ears.

That feud continued the next day.

O'Rielly makes a mess of history

[Matthanuf06]

I disagree. His closing statement is a perfect example.

The closest he gets is "can't project power from bankruptcy court". However I don't think that's relatable to Americans. Heck Trump has totally brushed off the impact of bankruptcy. And Rand clearly has a perception about him that he will gut and weaken the military.

I didn't hear any metaphors or stories. Calm yourself.

[S.Shorland]

He didn't let Hannity mischaracterise the debate but reiterated it forcefully.Well done

[CaptUSA]

Rand's going to win the military spending discussion.

He needs to state clearly in a debate that, "I agree with George Bush's Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, who said, "The single greatest threat to our national security is our debt." (He's said it before, but it would lend weight to his argument in the debate.)

Also, he can say that no matter what, he wants to make sure we can afford to spend more on our military than the next 5 countries combined! To the low info voter, that sounds like an incredible amount, but in reality, that would be a cut. lol.

I have a feeling Rand and his campaign are working on something like this for an op-ed in the next day or 2.
