QOTD: "...the questions that the moderators asked weren’t just discomfiting, humiliating ones. They were the right ones, starting with a brilliant opener: Was there any candidate who was unwilling to pledge support to the eventual Republican nominee and swear off a third-party run?

Trump alone wouldn’t make those promises, even though the moderator who asked that question, Bret Baier, pointed out that such a third-party run would likely hand the presidency to the Democratic nominee.

And thus, in the first minute of the debate, Trump was undressed and unmasked, and he stood there as the unprincipled, naked egomaniac that he is. He never quite recovered. His admission of political infidelity was the prism through which all of his subsequent bluster had to be viewed." --Frank Bruni

The problem with your analysis is that you are forgetting the core Republican voters. They, like Trump, are not going to support another wishy washy candidate. Trump could have ended the whole thing by jumping in and asking the audience for a show of hands of those who will not be voting for another RINO Republican. When a majority of the hands went up, the moderators would have scrambled to find meaningful questions to ask the group of candidates. There would have been time for one question, because the applause after the hand raising would have lasted 2 hours.
