Republican Presidential candidates back-lashed at the debate process after the third Presidential Debate held on Wednesday. Marco Rubio commented that the process was irritating as the questions were too snarky and the candidates looked spending more time infighting with the moderators rather than with each other.
The top 10 candidates from Republican Party were on stage to share their opinion on the most relevant issues for the American voters at the Coors Events Center at the University of Colorado Boulder. As the 10 leading candidates debated for more than two hours an average of 14 million viewers across the nation watched the broadcast that was moderated by Becky Quick, Carl Quintanilla and John Harwood.
The moderators drew enough flak from the Republican Presidential candidates during and after the debate session. Several Republican candidates expressed some outrage at some of the questions that were asked.
Certain queries were derided as personal attack, i.e. when Donald Trump was asked by Harwood if Trump was running a 'comic book version' of campaign for US President. Senator Marco Rubio was also questioned if he should resign after a Florida newspaper took umbrage at his attendance record. Texas Senator Ted Cruz accused the moderators of putting on a 'cage match.' He not only scolded the moderators but also explicitly expressed as to why the American people do not trust the media.
Senator Marco Rubio, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, Bush made a fiery impression during the debate. Donald Trump on the other hand remained on the softer tone.
Later, CNBC network that hosted the show issued a statement stating that people who want to be the President of the United States should be able to answer tough questions.
