Even Donald Trump supporters should have an easy enough time pointing out the GOP candidate's potential for bringing the cray cray to tonight's debate.

His penchant for unleashing blunt, controversial (some might say thoughtless, others racist) one-liners without regard for consequence seems to be part of the candidate's appeal. But, according to late-night comic Larry Wilmore, Trump has set a dangerous precedent.  Now other candidates have upped the cray cray factor just to get equal attention. Take a look at today's Punchlines to find out what these attempts to out-crazy one another might mean for the debate.

And Seth Meyers counters the crazy by giving candidates level-headed advice on dealing with the business mogul. Hint: Have you ever tried to stave off a bear attack in the woods?
