I think the RNC was well aware that they had not gotten Trump consent.

Until yesterday, they did not announce a place or a “sponsor”.

I had been checking all week.

This puts Fox in a bind.

If they cancel the debate, it will indicate that Donald is the defacto winner and “only reason” to have the debate. It will also prove that these Debates have been put in place just to pump up the ads.

If they go along with the debate, it will put a spotlight on the remaining two candidates. They will do OK, but it will be wonky and boring as hell. They will do noting but attack Trump.

Fox cannot win either way.

Thats funny. Someone did not do their homework.

I agree, enough is enough. However a debate had been schedules month ago for March 21, it was just not known by which cable network

Then let Kasich do a townhall with a FOX audience by himself. After about fifteen minutes the FOX execs will wonder if they paid for a Sominex infomercial when the entire audience is sound asleep.

I thought this cycle the RNC had decided to have less debates.

Fewer, not less.

I hate these Word Crimes.

Good. Cruz and Kasich can unite and bash the nominee. Fox should cancel it.

Trump didn’t know and had no input. I saw the presser when it was first brought up - you could tell Trump hadn’t heard a thing about it.

And there’s no way I’m sitting through a debate where John Kasich gets half the airtime.


His father was a mailman, you know.

Once again Trump shows good judgment. He has boosted Fox news ratings enough.

It’s a lose-lose for Fox. Hilarious.

Well, they made their bed with how the first debate was run.

I agree with him and he is right. No one wants any more debates there are no new revelations.

He’ll have 30 minutes to tell us that again, over and over.

I couldn’t pick 2 more boring candidates to put together than Kasich and Cruz. Oh, maybe Jeb too.

He’s not a “coward”, he already had an appointment and then they spring this on him and he’s supposed to cancel his plans and show up. Screw ‘em
