I am taking orders for bumper stickers if Trump is elected that says “I tried to tell them about this guy”.
This is a defining moment for Sowell that could very well alter his career.
It was not a debate. It was a cheap ‘gotcha-interview’.
Maybe he was unaware of this. He should read this post, verify it, and publicly apologize to Trump ....
Wow: Who Fox News Just Invited To GOP Debate Makes Trump’s Decision Look Brilliant

The second individual, Dulce Candy, is an immigrant from Mexico, a former U.S. military servicewoman, and a Latina. Trump’s commitment to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico could very well be a topic of her discussions with the candidates.
The third individual, Nabela Noor, is a Muslim American who is an outspoken critic of anyone who, like Trump, questions the motivations of Muslims, Muslim immigrants, Islam, and jihad. Noor, who reportedly equated Trump with Adolf Hitler, will most likely address Muslim-related issues with the candidates. Quite possibly, Noor will question Trump’s plan to temporarily close U.S. immigration to Muslims. Noor states she uses her voice to combat what she perceives as negative stereotypes of Muslims, a phenomena she states is more prevalent.

But if only the opportunity to disagree with greatness were more frequent...
Sowell ping.
Consistently confused as to what Conservatism is.
Gardasil? Really?
You haven’t changed one bit.
It's an amazingly long list, isn't it?
They know a conservative when they see one, and when they don't.
Neither have you.
That is it exactly. Mr. Sowell feels zero impact about anything that is happening to this country.
Is freedom of speech/freedom of association, etc out the door for Trump and his supporters?
Exactly Arthur. Over the years I’ve had respect for Sowell, but this is so wrong. He’s not the only one either. These folks have come unhinged.
There is no longer any ability to reason.
Trump essentially had no choice. What would Sowell have done, allow them to eviscerate him and destroy his candidacy?
His judgment makes no sense here > IMO.
Thanks for growing the list Trump is scared of.
"Some of these so-called thinkers have seemingly come unhinged."
The academically rooted chattering class always becomes unhinged when there's a danger someone will actually do something to solve problems the chattering class constantly ponder and discuss.
Just think of them as lobbyists for keeping various problems rather than solving them.
I don’t plan on it either.
Please, when you get your gig in 2019, let me know who it is. Thanks.
**DRUDGE POLL** WHO IS YOUR REPUBLICAN PICK FOR PRESIDENT?
Cincinatus’ Wife, I think it’s you who need to “grow up.” I’ve been willing to vote for Cruz if he were to be the nominee, even though Trump is my preference. But with what he’s done in the past couple of days, Cruz has gone off my list. Just another “conservative mouth” who isn’t telling the whole truth about himself and what he’d do if elected. So much to say, he’s not really a conservative at all, but just another “politician” trying to bull$hit me into voting for him! HIs comment about “telling the Iowan’s what they want to hear” did it for me. That was a sleazy comment!
Perfect analysis DO!
“They know a conservative when they see one, and when they don’t. “
Then you should avoid looking in the mirror when you want to see one too!
