The next Republican debate is coming up this Thursday and will be hosted by FOX News. Based on their back and forth the last time FOX News hosted, Donald Trump asked the network to take Megyn Kelly off the moderator desk.

If that was the standard there would be a very sparse pool from which to pick and there would never be a GOP debate on CNN. :)
I can see Trump making a remark on her hair and if she tries any funny business with Trump it’s fair game to call her a dyke.
Nobody was hit over the head the way the Fox moderators went after Trump in August. For you to think Trump is just a cry baby you are being disingenuous. They singled out Trump as he was the biggest threat and they wanted him gone before he snowballed out in front to the degree he is now. You never saw gotcha questions thrown at Jeb, Carson, Rubio or Fiorina back then did you? They were the GOP-e darlings since they are nothing short of RINOS. Don’t you get it?
I wonder if her husband that likes her “killer B’s” is digging her lesbian hairdo which totally ruins her looks. I think Rosie O Donnell is more attractive than her now.
I was expecting her to have been fired by now since her stunt at the August debate. Her Facebook page is still daily getting hate from Fox News “former viewers” that won’t watch Fox until she is gone. I used to watch her show until that debate. The only time I see her face now is on here in these threads on FR.
Trump should know that. Cruz should know that. Every single candidate should know that. They should be prepared to deal with it.
I don't know who I will vote for in the primary. It will not be based on anti-Trump essays in the NRO, what Red State writes(I loathe Erickson-I wish WSB would drop him), who Palin, Rush, Beck, or Levin endorse. The size of a crowd at a rally means nothing in terms of my vote. My vote will be cast for the candidate who best represents what I consider important.
I don't yet know how Trump comes down on some of those issues. (FR is more divided than in past elections. It is getting harder & harder navigate through the rancor in search of that information) I don't find much to argue with in his position papers but there are other issues which concern me. I'll get there-I just have took look harder and longer. :)
Fox isn’t aware of the blow back from August went a bunch of people (I don’t have a figure but I’d say AT LEAST tens of thousands) aren’t watching FOX now because of her nasty liberal tactics. If that’s not a blowback then Fox is stupid to even attempt this.
I don't think her ego will let this go as she never apologized to Trump after the blowback and her obvious biased gotcha questions came to bite her in the ass and she lost thousands watching her show and people boycotted Fox in lieu of them not firing Megyn Kelly

Her questions to Trump were obvious hit pieces to try to sabotage Trump from the get go and it backfired. Hell all of the moderators were teaming up against Trump. It was obvious. For you to pretend it did not happen is insulting to someone who is STILL mad at the desperate attempts by the GOP-e hierarchy. If you are blind to that I wonder how you can consider yourself a conservative.
Is it silly or childish? Aren’t you still pissed off that the RNC was stupid enough to allow CNN and Candy Crowley to be a part of that debate in what made Romeny look like a dope with those obvious scripted back and forth with Obama and Crowley, tag teaming up against Romeny? Just thinking about it now still pisses me off. I can’t believe Prince Reibus is STILL RNC chairman as he should have been tarred and feathered after that atrocious display, and yet 4 years later Prince Reibus is still there laughing and lying.
yep, you get it. I can’t believe there are other Freepers though, (some in this very thread) that don’t see the obvious and they must think Karl Rove is their friend.
That freeper sounds more like a Democrat plant in here. Some of the tone reeks exactly like the dope protesters you see at Trump rallys.
no difference there, just varying degree of skankiness with those three liberals.
Thing is, she put those extensions in her hair at a time when she sort of already had long hair. I never saw when she cut her hair whether she even acted like anything was different or just went on like nothing happened. For her to put extensions in hair like she has now it would make her look like a fool. A self absorbed fool.
Trump is running for POTUS. I am not.
Is this a one off or will this be SOP with any media criticism if he is sworn in as POTUS?
That is a concern of mine.

I would be good with fewer debates. I think every debate the RNC does basically weakens whatever advantage Republicans have as the moderators are OK with pitting candidates against themselves. With the Democrats on the other hand, the moderators never attack or prompt the candidates to attack other Democratic candidates. See the difference?
If you can’t see media criticism as being different than obvious attacks then you are lying to yourself. Would you say media criticism even happens for Obama AT ALL? I’ll answer that for you they haven’t. What’s even worse is not one media outlet has viciously attacked Obama in the same vein as how the media is attacking Trump now, especially not the way Megyn (the supposed conservative but really a RINO liberal) attacked Trump. Have you ever heard Wolf Blitzer grill Obama about his gay buddy Reggie Love or that his wife is really a transvestite? Nope. All soft ball questions. Have you ever seen George Snuffaluffagus ATTACK Clinton asking her when she will admit she lied to the Benghazi victim families and lied to America about the video as well as liying about her not sending classified info over her server unsecured or even attack on why she shouldn’t be in jail now. See the difference? Media criticism is MUCH different than media attacking, and even in the extreme examples I listed that the media won’t ask, is still valid questions that should be asked. The Meygyn questions to Cruz and Trump were hit pieces meant to destroy.
Those were easy questions to answer. And, I did not pretend it did not happen.
In a sane world, but the elites really don't want Trump, or any one else that may have a chance of temporarily inconveniencing their plunder and destruction of the country.
