I hate to comment on anything Slate writes, but:

Fox dis themselves a disservice in hounding Trump about his off the record interview with the NYT.

When he told Kelly and Wallace that he had more respect for them than to make the tapes public, he was doing them a favor and giving them a hint that they should wake up.

Because if he violated the agreement that the meeting was off record and opened the door for others to do the same, public officials would refuse to grant off the record meeting to the news media. When asked to have off the record meetings, they would say something like “Off the record?” “Ha why would I meet with someone who will rat out on me in a few weeks?”

And as for his real estate school....it is interesting that the law firm suing him has as a senior partner a guy who spent time in jail for paying witnesses to lie in court.

Mix that with students who thought all they needed was a few lecture hours to be another millionaire.

It takes more than that.

I like your insights. I think Fox let up a little this debate and I believe I could have answered some questions of Trump better than he did.

I would not be surprised to learn that he was worn out of perhaps coming down with something. But he did OK with the attack dogs on all sides.

It seemed to me that the moderators (who were somewhat ineffective) did try to be fair and in fact stopped some of the senators when they were non stop interrupting Trump.
