US: Mr Trump Called Mr Obama Clueless

DONALD TRUMP - MOGUL AND PRESENTERDonald Trump declared war on political correctness at the first Republican primary debate in Cleveland and proceeded to demonstrate more than once that he believes in his own words - calling American leaders “stupid” and blithely admitting he has called women derogatory names.
While the debate between the Republicans in the top ten in recent national polls involved sober and even specific debate about issues ranging from the Islamic State to immigration and the fate of Obamacare, the night, hosted by Fox News, occasionally veered into moments of rancor, notably involving Governor Chris Christie and Senator Rand Paul, or Music Hall silliness, always involving Mr Trump.
The business mogul who has extended a wide lead in the polls drew boos at the start of the two-hour event by refusing to vow not to challenge whoever wins the Republican nomination, if it’s not him, and not to re-launch himself as a third-party candidate. “I will not make that pledge at this time,” he said.

He won applause with his straight-talk promise. “I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct,” he offered.
But the gasps were audible when moderator Megyn Kelley said he has been on the record calling “women you don’t like ‘fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals”.
Barely pausing, Mr Trump replied, “Only Rosie O’Donnell”, referencing the TV comedian and host.

Arguing to end abortion in most cases, he said future generations will “call us barbarians for murdering millions of babies”.  Reaching for an optimistic and uplifting tone in his closing remarks, Mr Rubio, promised “to make of this century a new American century.”
On the other hand, Mr Bush continued to tread a fine line on immigration where he again defended his position that those currently in the country illegally should have the chance to become legal citizens. This, he insisted, does not mean amnesty, though many in the party will continue to see it as such.
JEB BUSH - FORMER FLORIDA GOVERNOR The former governor also was forced again to repeat his position that his brother erred going into Iraq – because he was given faulty intelligence – which again may not sit well with conservatives.  “It was a mistake, I wouldn't have gone in,” he said.
He went on: “Why should they when the stupid leaders of the United States will do it for them?”]
On foreign policy, Mr Trump called Mr Obama “clueless”.  He added: “I would say he is incompetent but I don’t want to do that, because that’s not nice….if Iran was a stock you guys should go out and buy it because it is going to quadruple”.
Scott Walker, the Governor of Wisconsin, who has jostled for second place in most recent polls with Mr Bush, drew applause discussing recent cyber-attacks on US federal data systems, by simultaneously jabbing Mrs Clinton and her difficulties explaining private email serve as Secretary of State. 
Russia and China, he suggested, “know more about Mrs Clinton emails than does the United States Congress”.
The Fox moderators seemed more intent than anyone on stage to draw blood from Mr Trump.  He was quizzed on the history of his businesses declaring bankruptcy four times, most recently in 2009.
And he was pushed to explain the damage that bankruptcy had done to those who had lent to him. “First of all, these lenders aren’t babies,” he shot back. “These are total killers. These are not the nice, sweet little people that you’d think. You’re living in a world of the make-believe.”
The stage was set alight when Senator Rand Paul, a libertarian, was tackled by Chris Christie, the Governor of New Jersey, for his position that the US government should be restrained in its access to private, personnel data and communications in the name of fighting terrorism. 
Mr Christie, who insisted keep the current rules of the Patriot Act intact, accused Mr Paul of “blowing hot air” on Capitol Hill.  "I'm the only person on this stage who's actually filed applications under the Patriot Act. ... This is not theoretical to me. I went to the funerals (after September 11, 2001)."
In response to a question about faith, Mr Rubio was fast with a quip.  “God has blessed us with good candidates...the Democrats can’t even find one.”
A former neurosurgeon, Ben Carson made one of the better jokes of the night saying he was the only person on stage who had removed half a brain.  He added: “But if you go to Washington, you’d think someone had beaten me to it.”
