FWIW, here is the DEGOP’s official reaction to the debate. (Notice how Copeland views the Republican primary voter’s fear as some mysterious force that has descended on the land, and not a contrivance of the Republican Party and Fox News.)
“The debate ultimately gets weighed over the next three days on some of the sound bites that get pulled and there’s no doubt that format and that media process works in many ways in Trump’s favor. He’s very good with the quip,” said Copeland. “And he’s absolutely tapped into an anger, or I might even call it a fear, in the electorate that the country’s going the wrong way and they want strong leadership and he’s certainly demonstrated that.”
