He pretty much read from a script the entire debate but the minimum wage question really threw him for a loop. You could tell he was not prepared for that question.

He’s hawking weight loss products with preposterous claims, such as “I lost 54 lbs. in just 1 month with no dieting or exercise.”

Which am I gonna believe—Dr. Oz’s denials, or my lyin’ eyes?

but the Medicare lie was much worse. He claimed he would not touch Medicare but his own proposals would push many to private Medicare Advantage plans.

Edited for people who don't understand the difference between a one sentence summary and a rhetorical question that was asked but not part of the summary.

They aren't looking for an answer but just making a statement.
