A true leader.
The true, courageous leader here is the head of Fox who refuses to give in to the whining bully’s demands even though they know they will lose money for standing up for the principles of freedom of the press.
I didn’t say they wouldn’t do it, I said it would be unwise. If Trump doesn’t go they should concentrate on getting me, and people like me, to vote and caucus for them. Saying nasty stuff about Trump won’t do that.
Hopefully Cruz points out that we can’t risk a candidate so irresponsible and temperamental that if he gets in a tiff with a reporter, he would walk out on a debate against the Democrat nominee, putting our party in jeopardy over his own fragile ego.
Because our candidate has to go up against exactly that kind of moderator or far worse in the general election. If he can’t handle it, then he’s not ready to be the nominee.
I have my hand raised. I’d much rather watch a Trump rally or a town hall than these stupid debates. The media just wants to raise money and get sound bites for their shows after the debate and have their talking heads on to say who did or didn’t win. They are disgusting! If someone doesn’t teach FOX a lesson, then they will continue with their elitist attitudes.
Yes 6 debates is enough. I am sick of it. I’d much rather watch a Trump townhall. I’m ready to vote. :-)
Debates meant something when there wasn’t 24/7 news coverage of the candidates. Now they are hyped up but don’t deliver much.
“Taking your ball and going home is a fine plan for a 3rd grader.”
It’s political tactics! Has nothing to do with taking a ball and going home. Trump understands leverage like none of the rest of them. He probably already received Roger Ailes tesicles in a box mailed to him by their former owner. If Trump’s a no show, Fox will loose literally tens of millions of dollars in ad revenue due to the steep fall off in viewers, something that’s way more dear to Ailes than the content or the debate who the “moderators” are. Fox already has the money and would have to give it back. Sure Kelly and Trump will both be there, but you can bet Kelly has been told what she can and cannot do. Can you just imagine what pure hell President Trump could bring down on Fox? Trump’snot a 3rd grader, he’s a master!
Once again, the Donald is driving the narrative.
You might not like him, but it’s hard not to admire how brilliantly he’s played the media.
If people don’t know their candidate’s platform and issues by now - what do they hope to learn from these stupid debates? They really aren’t debates - they are akin to mud wrestling and the moderators want the candidates to sling mud so they can get higher ratings - which equals more money. They don’t care one bit about the candidates - especially, the Republicans.
“Have a Trump rally instead and invite CNN/MSNBC cameras.
Laugh at Fox News when the rally ratings come in beating the Fox News debate. “
Great idea . I have tweeted this idea to Trump .
No, she lied on national TV and misrepresented what people said, judge jury and executioner before she asked her question. She should have been fired, lying BIMBO. I hope he doesn’t change his mind, he is way out of their league.
Why can the big bully dish it out but not take it? Fox doesn't have to be objective when it comes to defending their own reporters against Trump's attacks.
It's scary to think what skeletons in the closet Trump must still be hiding about his relationships with women. He's already admitted in his book to sleeping with married women and we know he cheated on his first wife, leading to their divorce. But for him to so violently oppose any mild questioning about his treatment of women in the past, it is a strong indicator that he has something he desperately wants to keep hidden. He wants to scare reporters off the trail.
Did you read the fox press release??? He cancelled because they were rude and unprofessional to him! I would never set foot in their studios again after that tirade!
Yes, they have already had three more debates than they should have. Enough. Stop them, the only ones it benefits are the media.
Just stick up a mannequin with goofy hair and a pull string. Ask it questions and it can spit out one of the following:
1. Actually people love me.
2. I’m going to be awesome at that.
3. You are a bad, bad person.
4. I’ll make America great again.
5. Single payer, and I’ll make the hospitals pay for it.
6. They make bad deals. I make great deals.
Says the guy who is rude and unprofessional to everyone.
Trump’s afraid of the girl.
They were non stop beating him. They were bully, he just pulled rug.
