Trump will stomp every last one of them.
And make them look like the liberal hacks they are.
No. but the media is.

To refuse any, most or all of the moderators would be a sign of fear or weakness to the public.....and the enemedia would jump all over him.
I have total faith he has the confidence to handle these liberal worms during the debates....in fact, he'll probably play off BETTER against them because of any challenge or gotchas they may or will present.

I’m surprised Donald Trump isn’t kicking up a fuss about this. I thought for sure the stacking of debates with liberal moderators was going to be one of the things he would fix. For now, I’ll content myself with the possibility that he might have something up his sleeve.
So Jim Lehrer is finally gone after moderating the first debate in the last 7 elections and is replaced by Lester Holt.
Elaine Quijano is 41, worked at CNN from 2000 to 2009 and CBS since 2010.
Martha Raddatz returns having done the 2012 VP debate. The other moderators are all doing their first General Election debate.
And of course all are liberals thanks to the GOPe.
Just a reminder about presidential debates....
Donald Trumps best quality? HE LISTENS!
He LISTENS...and evidently he listened in 2004, during the debates of the presidential race when Bob Shieffer of CBS stated that the most questions he got from the PUBLIC to ask the candidates was about......WAIT FOR IT...
IMMIGRATION!
2004!
THAT is how long we have all been ignored, until Donald Trump!
SCHIEFFER: Let’s go to a new question, Mr. President, I got more e-mail this week on this question than any other question. And it is about immigration.
(PS....if you really want to see what phonies both Bush and Kerry were, take a look at their answers in that debate to the ONE immigration question! http://www.debates.org/index.php?page=october-13-2004-debate-transcript
‘Trump should boycott until the debates are moderated by non-partisan persons.’
‘My candidate of choice in 2012 was Newt Gingrich, and I believe he would have refused to accept this lineup.’
You two realize this would be Hillary’s dream come true? She wouldn’t have to debate, AND she could blame it all on Trump. She couldn’t ask for more.
For all we know these moderators were chosen precisely to incite Trump into making the kind of demand you two suggest. Hillary doesn’t seem up to much at all these days, least of all a demanding, make or break debate. What could possibly help her more than being spared the rigors and exposure of a debate, while being able to blame it entirely on too-scared-to-debate [that’s how she’d cast it—and the MSM would pile on] Trump?
I agree. I bet he responds. Will be interesting to see what he suggests.
Chris Wallace, IMO, is one nasty piece of mankind.
For decades Trump has dealt with liberals, communists and the mob just getting building permits and subcontractors contracts. The toughest of the tough!
Can’t wait to see the Master deal with these light weights.
The problem is that Hillary will be fed the questions prior to the forums. Just another pickle jar moment.
Anderson Cooper was a member of the Clinton Foundation, listed on the same page as Matt Lauer who is hosting next week’s NBC special.
I think Maria Bartiromo should do every single one of them.
Conservative moderators would not feed Hillary the questions, so in one sense the moderators are the problem
However, Trump cannot push too hard for conservative moderators, unfortunately. Hillary is—guaranteed—looking for any excuse to bail on these debates. If Trump draws a line in the sand, all Hillary and her enablers have to do is make sure his demands go unmet, and she’s off the hook.
I hope at each ‘debate’ that Trump directly asks each moderator if Clinton was given any of the questions prior to the event, yes or no.
Snowe Job! Knew it ...
That said, I can't wait for the townhall debate (#2) if Hillary has to sit on the stool, getting up and down each time its a question to her. What a sight to behold to see fatass trying to do anything physical.
