Rick Klein: “Donald Trump was the center of some of the most important action of the night, in a reminder that he doesn’t have to be loud or insulting to influence a presidential debate. His argument for building a border wall and forcing undocumented immigrants out of the country sparked a debate where the moderators weren’t even looking for one… His vision for the country, of course, is not unanimous inside his party. It earned Trump a Jeb Bush-John Kasich tag team –- in a series of exchanges that will resonate throughout the primary season.”
New York Times: “The splintering over immigration, in a campaign dominated so far by the personas, speeches and backgrounds of the candidates, illuminated the brightest dividing line between Republican hopefuls like Mr. Bush and Mr. Kasich, who favor a comprehensive immigration overhaul, and the many primary voters who have embraced Mr. Trump’s harsh language about immigrants in the country illegally.”
