He needs the help. The man has no idea what he is saying about most of the issues and can’t remember what positions he has taken from moment to moment.

You are so correct there. In this instance I think Trump's staff was trying to prove to FOX the BBB ratings of the college.

Yes allowed, but nothing to be proud of. Kind of like farting in church.

Ah, yes he contacted his campaign - they were told to FAX a copy of the BBB rating to Fox News....It SHOWS Trump U. has an A rating. You may have seen it posted here.

Moral of story - Fox breaks rules and enters the debate instead of moderates it (by making supposed “factual” statements) the candidate in turn has the right to prove otherwise

"I play to people's fantasies," he writes. "People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That's why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular." Donald J Trump The Art of the Deal

Trump makes himself much more available to the press, radio shows, tv shows than any other candidate.

He calls into a local talk show very frequently and it seems like it’s always from his plane or he is on the way to someplace else.

He is totally unscripted and answers every question.

I think it’s pretty cool in this day and age!

Would be the incident where Fox LIED about Trump’s Better Business Bureau rating, and his staff produced a fax showing he had an “A” rating?

Opposition to Trump seems to be based completely on emotional reactions to hysterical perceptions.

Probably to get the fax to correct Megyn Kelly's outright lies about the BBB rating for Trump U.

Better Business Bureau: Trump Right on 'A' Rating — Mostly (MEGYN LIED)

Trump University Has 98% Approval Rating. So Why Is NY AG Schneiderman Going after Them?

I think the point is that the candidate should know the issues without having to consult with their handlers during the debate.
