Really? Trump is being a bully. Anyone who doesn’t put him on a pedestal is slammed and called names. I want to see a real debate of issues and Trump doesn’t want to play.
Ted Cruz is my guy and if Trump attacks him, I will not vote for Trump. This fighting is costing Trump votes.
Trump, fails to attend debate because he is afraid of a girl. Sad.
After seeing the pix of Kelly buddying up to Michael Moore, one of the most truly vulgar human beings of all time, I am rethinking that Trump may be right about Megyn/FNC.
Perhaps, but he is perceived by many as 'our bully'.
Trump is not afraid of a girl silly. Think. Trump is afraid of Cruz and the rest scoring points in debate. If you do not enter ring, you do not get hit. You do not lose votes. Brilliant strategy.
Fox news thought they had Donald Trump boxed in and even made VERY sneering remarks about him in a press release. He called their bluff. They thought there is no way he can now back out of this debate.... they were very wrong...again. Donald Trump wrong footed them.... again. They need Donald in the debate he does not need them.
Presidential debates are relatively new to the US political scene (coinciding with the rollout of radio and television, in my opinion).
Republican candidate Wendell Willkie challenged President Franklin D. Roosevelt to a debate in 1940, but Roosevelt refused.
The first general election presidential debate was held on September 26, 1960, between U.S. Senator John F. Kennedy, the Democratic nominee, and Vice President Richard Nixon.
General election debates were not held for the elections of 1964, 1968 and 1972, although intra-party debates were held during the primaries between Democrats Robert F. Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy in 1968 and between Democrats George McGovern and Hubert Humphrey in 1972.

Ron Paul did not participate in the most recent debate, and none of the candidates are required to participate.
