Although be believes Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton would beat Donald Trump “like a drum,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) (R-S.C.) blasted Fox News for its queries of Trump during Thursday’s GOP presidential debate. Interviewed on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Graham snapped, “This was more of an inquisition than it was a debate. It was a missed opportunity to talk about things that really mattered.”

Lindsey wants some visibility. He is a drowning man clutching at straws. He only defends Trump to get some face time.
Lindsey is a slut. He’s come to realize the only way to get his name in the press is to link it to Trump’s. I wouldn’t be surprised if Ms. Lindsey gives Trump another cell number to release.
They also know that the audience was made up of Gopee loyalist who were attending a convention. Rick Santorum let the cat out of bag on Greta.
Pack the audience just like north Korea does
Sure explains a lot!
Draw our own line Patriots! Stand your ground with the leader who will not tow their line!
Fox and Megyn Kelly are there to advance the interests of Fox and Megyn Kelly. They could not care less about the "conservative agenda," except that both Kelly and Murdock are probably liberals and - on a personal level - disagree with most positions taken by Conservatives.
The pigs are cleared for takeoff - I just agreed with Graham.
Someone please tell me this: how did the questions differ from those expected from LSM?
They say women dress to impress other women - the media concocts questions to impress other media members. The media loves nothing better than to become the issue. Wallace in particular loves the attention and doesn’t care how he gets it.
With the three idiots working together to create the questions, why wouldn’t one ask “how is that relevant?” They should publish their entire list of potentail questions and have viewers rank them in order of importance.
As dumb as it sounds, next time just have them randomly read questions submitted on Twitter. It would have to be an improvement in “journalistic” quality.
I guess she needs another favor...
Sounds like the FOX moderators mindset was one of a low budget reality show rather than a serious debate on the issues. I didn’t watch the debate but have been fascinated by the comments of those who have. I seriously doubt I will watch any of them. IMO, it’s all a waste of time.
Just looked in on the Kelly show on FOX...She’s got some panel picked by who knows who and she is questioning them with leaded questions about Trump last night...She’s shooting herself in her other foot....
I enjoyed Megan Kelly’s questions, and as I do not care much about Trump or Graham, I propose that they be next time be put into a third tier of debaters: those who will be given only cream-puff questions.
Trump is a big loser. Deep down, he is shallow.
Never got a chance to fall flat on his face by himself. Yet they built Trump up even bigger than he was before. Would not ask questions on the issues to get his usual answers he gives without specifics.
I would be absolutely beside myself if I were the rest. I bet each and every single one of them were saying to themselves..”Fox screwed the pooch and we are going to pay for it.”
Lindseed is right.
ROTFLMAO....you are too funny.
They planned on a big crowd. At the same time, the establishment wanted that bull gored. It was all in the plan.
I don't have a problem with hard questions, I do have a problem when it appears that they have singled out one person and staged a full attack right from the outset.
Under the circumstances, Trump behaved far better than they expected him to. It really was nothing new that Trump was never a conservative before. It is also nothing new that most people on that debate stage have never been much of a conservative either, except for Cruz. Of course he got mostly the silent treatment. He was “called out” for standing up against McConnell and the boyz for treachery and squandering the gift of majority by voters the last two midterms.
People really do not like the moderators to inject themselves into the debate. I guess the moderators could always run for President and join the debaters on the stage if they wish to debate the debaters.
FOX wanted a really big show and Brett, Megyn, and Chris wanted to be the big stars. That was obvious by the 10 minutes of crap talk they engaged in prior to the debate.
One thing about these news gab folks, you will never see them apologize to anyone. They are as full of it as the guy they accuse of being full of it.
They are haughty, condescending, arrogant, and rude. Must go with the territory of making news instead of reporting it.
Uber RINO Lindsey Pingh/t to martin_fierro for the graphic
I wonder if she had a hard time showing her face tonight at her show? I haven’t read one single good thing about her and I have read 100s of posts all over the internet. She should be embarrassed to show her face and so should Chris Wallace.
He deserves scorn. Linda created the conditions for the lynching. Now he tries to run to the head of the parade like his mentor McCain.
“A number of the questions to Trump were below the dignity of the event.”
No, none were that low. Besides, this is the time to go into the shady past of any candidate who has one, before he gathers enough rabble to clinch the nomination, and then loose badly in the general election.
Trump is not what we want. He is a phony. Out of the two groups in the debates, almost all the others are preferable.
I couldn't have said it better. It was like with a college level production totally biased.
“The analysis notes Fox moderators Chris Wallace, Megyn Kelly and Bret Baier spoke for 31 minutes and 53 seconds of the roughly two-hour broadcast, or 31.7% of the time.”
Every time candidates spoke in the #GOPDebate (darker sections were longer than 60 seconds)
