We learned several things from the GOP debate last night.

Donald J. Trump was the biggest winner- by a mile.

First, he won by not showing up and having to lower himself to fight the entire gang of also-rans who want his old job. Big win for just making that brilliant decision.

Second, by not participating, Trump won by taking all the attention away from the competition. Most of America's conservative voters didn't show up. They instead watched "Trump on Twitter"- thereby depriving anyone on that stage of making up ground on Trump's 40 point plus lead.

Third, I predicted only days ago that "Trump on Twitter" would destroy the GOP debate ratings. Trump did not disappoint. Well over 170 million watched Tucker interview Trump on Twitter. More people watched Trump than voted in the 2020 election! Amazing.

Fourth, Trump won the biggest prize of all- he got revenge on Fox News. Trump on Twitter defeated the most powerful cable TV news network in America. Or at least it used to be. Now it's a shell of its former pro-Trump, pro-Tucker self.

Trump and Tucker together have destroyed Fox News. Stick a fork in Fox. The arrogant EU-raised Murdoch sons have no clue what real American conservatives think.
