Donald Trump wants Fox News star 'fired'
World Net Daily ^ | 8/18/2015 | Cheryl Chumley

Posted on 08/18/2015 3:52:09 PM PDT by stars & stripes forever

Donald Trump has a message he’d like to give Fox News political pollster Frank Luntz: You’re fired.

Fresh off his confrontation with Fox News superstar Megyn Kelly, Donald Trump is now lashing out at Luntz and calling on Fox News to fire him from overseeing its post-debate focus groups.

The participants in Luntz’s focus group bashed the real-estate mogul’s performance during the Fox News Republican presidential debate on Aug. 6, calling Trump “mean” and “bombastic.” Trump was quick to criticize the focus group, calling Luntz a “clown” and a “low class slob” on Twitter.

It has now come to light that prior to the debate, Luntz allegedly told attendees at a South Carolina fundraiser that Trump is “addicted” to attention and could hurt the Republican Party, according to Politico.

[And this is Trump’s call because...?]

I am a TED CRUZ supporter. That being said, any pollster who stacks the deck against any candidate should be fired.

I have already fired the entire Fix News Network. My TV does not go to that channel anymore.

Your post doesn’t explain why Donald Trump should get to dictate to FOX or any other network whom they should fire and whom should they allow to remain employed.

Nixon, Clinton and Obama used Fed Gov resources to attack private citizens.

Trump is a private citizen.

There’s your difference.

“Luntz allegedly told attendees at a South Carolina fundraiser that Trump is “addicted” to attention and could hurt the Republican Party, according to Politico.”

Because Politico is always looking out for the Republican’s/sarc

For those not aware, it was Frank Luntz who sold the DEMS the new term, climate change. They wanted a different phrase other than global warming, and it was he, who came up with it. Google it.

Dictate?

How could he possibly express his wish strongly without you claiming he is dictating?

But he likes Perez Hilton and how he uses Trump’s pageant for gay marriage activism.

I forgot about that and Perez Hilton's whining response to a contestant's answer because he did not like her sensible remarks on gay marriage.

He's suggesting.

It's a free country. They don't have to do it.

If it were Hillary they would.

This is also in response to a Koch Brothers seminar on Monday where Luntz was blasting Trump. Bush laid down for his critics and you saw what happened to him. Trump will fight back and will not lay down for anyone.

You don't get it. There are a whole lot of people who are fed up with milquetoast gentleman Republican candidates like Milt Romley who won't stand up for anything or confront anybody except for fellow Republicans that they consider to be "divisive." I want somebody "divisive. I don't want my President getting along with Democrats and RINOs.

After forty years of feminism that has been bent on emasculating American, it is refreshing to have someone stand up and slug it out with the neuters that inhabit the media.
