Why you must be talking about Lightweight Journalist Megyn Kelly!
And you seem to not see that Ailes turned down Trumps bribe.
Trump cost Ailes nothing, in fact as time goes on Fox will probably get more popular for not conceding to Trumps bribes and hissy fits. It was a very good Debate without Trump. Best one yet and no one missed him.
If not will you go away?
Some of them are already out, Trump is actually on it, rofl.
Guess he was a write in as it shows he won. that is just so funny.... It can’t be taken seriously, he was not on the podium........not valid. sorry.
I did not see it but I have read conflicting accounts of how it went. I guess we’ll see how it plays out.
He dang sure did.....big time. Ailes held his ground and refused to take Trumps offer/bribe.........do this or I won't do that....get real Trump you ain't that damned important. You lost big time.
Hang in the FOX.....do not bend for the Narcissist. Heck I may even re-up my cable.
Ailes is just doing what Murdock wants. He will not be fired.
It really was a good debate, they all got their points across very well. I was impressed with all of them, and without having to exchange stupid barbs with Trump. He really was not missed by any of them or the audience. JMO
And you seem not to realize Trump collected more than that in one day for Wonder Warriors which was the reason Trump asked Ailes to pony up.
Ailes refused to give 5 million dollars to Wonder Warriors for our injured veterans(cheap bastid). That is the takeaway for the day.
That makes Ailes the biggest loser!
Not Guilty!
Since every audience so far has appeared to be hand picked RNC hacks, I would guess the audience did not miss Trump
I'd say they held their own. FoxNews was pumping up Rubio, and making sure Cruz didn't fall on his own accord. I think for external reasons (ground game, Cruz eligibility) votes will migrate from Cruz to Rubio. This debate is in harmony with that outcome, too.
-- I would say Trump got what he wanted out of the deal. --
Yep. The debate wasn't about him. Couple of "cheap shot" jokes, nothing stunning, made in passing. No serious suggestion that Trump has a problem on the issues, or of character or temperament.
Sum total, IMO - status quo.
“... prevent her from being smeared any further” ..???
Really, but “her” was the one doing the smearing of Trump .. but that was okay, I guess.
Roger .. there’s something smelly going on at FOX .. and if you won’t admit it and fix it .. it will only get worse.
are you nuts?
They don’t have to ask Megyn Kelly, “Boxers or briefs?”
She practically shows the audience the answer every time she’s on the air.
And yesterday, and the day before, and calls to his daughter and his wife and his campaign manager....and and and
You are so blind to any kind of external reality. Look, Trump is way ahead in the polls, so he did a smart thing to help stay there. It’s like a quarterback running the clock out in the final seconds of a game - when you have the lead, your #1 goal is to keep it.
But even if you’re right - he got it. Fox apologized and begged him to return to the debate but his event was only hours away. Instead of being cross-examined by Megyn and crew he had a ball with friends, family, and some great American heroes and raised $6 million. That’s what a winner does.
See?
