The American Conservative’s Daniel Larison tells readers, “Paul excoriated Rubio on immigration surveillance, and foreign policy. … He also had a strong exchange with Christie over Syria and Russia and got the better of him.” Larison writes that Christie’s “clueless belligerence was on full display.”
Regarding a couple of the other candidates, Daniel writes, “Kasich distinguished himself as unusually clownish… Fiorina thought the best way to secure Chinese cooperation against North Korea was to provoke China.”
