A lot of drivel summed up in one sentence:”You’ll vote the way we want you to and like it”.

This isn't about Trump it is about the uniparty, CoC and Marxist media wanting to pick our candidate. Fox had the opportunity of a lifetime to set the standard. Instead they lowered the bar to the MSNBC rung.

Worth repeating.

“Roger Aile$ must be a consummate gambler, he is risking losing more viewers and increasing ire over Megyn’s odious performance.”

I’ll bet they edit it to make it look like DT initiated the whole thing. And of course, Kelly the pure as freshly fallen snow, the victim.

No more faux in my household, so I will not be watching this or anything else on faux news (or sports for that matter). Maybe someone here can tell us how it went.

The case for the establishment, indeed the cartel.

He’s telling the people they don’t really matter.

It’s time for the people to tell pundits like this they are wrong.

God, it doesn’t stop does it.

I think, and I hope, Trump understands what has happened here. He has now so many options. He stands to be in the end the nice guy.

I for one, listened to Megan, Chris and Brett. I don’t think there’s a conspiracy. I think they thought long and hard at the questions, and they wanted to hit each candidate at their weakest points.

That’s fine this time around, but at some point we need to find out where these people stand.

Kelly has actually been rather cool. If I would her I would beg Trump to come on her show. He will of course refuse...playing hard to get... Then when he does the show will break all records.

Way too much talk about Mygan Kelly - Megyn Kelly - bleached blonde bimbo evidently flattering herself thinking she’s gonna take out Trump & make a big name for herself. - I like Ted Cruz & Dr. Ben Carson. Maybe Carson & Fiorina can be appointed to some job or the other. - I’ll be glad to see the backside of Barack, Michelle & the girls as they leave the premises.

Agreed.

And now that you’re mentioning other candidates, I’ve always liked Bobby Jindal, although I’ve only seen him twice.

But he’s well spoken, knowledgeable, and he talks our language. I know he doesn’t have much of a chance, but I just thought I’d mention it.

And Ted Cruz of course.

I think he could. I’d rather he not.

Third party runs are a headache.

Getting on all the ballots and forming a 50 state team is tough.

Trump should be taking his case to the people and let the shovel ready news p up a rope.

I’d go to Detroit first. Let news people eat his dust.

Lampoon alert



FauxNews has just released this vido frame showing Trump leaving the GOP race...

It's the first known photo of Trump leaving a Republican race in North America.

Other news outlets aren't so sure, and think the footage may have been faked.

“The columnist went on to note that the public thinks that the Trump candidacy is hurting the party’s brand.”

The GOPE has pretty much destroyed the brand already. Not sure there is that much left to hurt.

It took THAT MUCH verbiage to say that Trump is done? They could have quoted the entire “debate” in that much space.

My impression is that it took them that much yackery to cobble together a wishful thinking yarn that would at least, hopefully, convince THEMSELVES that Trump is losing traction.

Sorry. Trump’s just getting his football cleats on.

Ask me if I will vote for any stuffed suit GOPE trots out.

The instant I agree to that I lose the tiny bit of leverage I have.
