In contrast to the other post-Democratic debate analyses on Sunday night, the guests assembled on the Fox News Channel (FNC) repeatedly ripped the three presidential candidates for failing to mention national security or foreign policy in the debates’s first question from NBC co-moderator Lester Holt on what three things they would do in their first 100 days in office. 

Weekly Standard senior writer and Fox News contributor Steve Hayes dropped the first reference, telling fellow panelists and host Shannon Bream that he “was struck in particular by the very first question which was this open ended question that Lester Holt lobbed to all three candidates” and how “none of them mentioned national security.”
