Most any of them would go on the Leno, Letterman or John Stewart show in a minute and be made fun of, and they think Trumps debate is ridiculous??
Big mistake.
I think it is a big mistake also. I like Trump’s business directness and his common sense. I was disappointed to hear Bachmann turned it down...I really thought she would do it and shine.
I agree - Trump knows a hell of a lot more than any pundit, news-reader, or talking head on the air, and they’d jump at the chance to be humiliated and reamed by that puke from See BS News again, or some twit from NPR.
It’s not like Trump lacks credibility, having actually started companies, created jobs, and made lots of money doing it. If I were Trump, I’d let the rumor get started that I might be considering running on a 3rd party ticket - then watch ‘em squirm!
Great point!
I agree.
I think Perry should decide to join the forum, since some of his strengths involve furthering private businesses where people are employed. He’s proven to be successful in Texas on such matters and opposes excessive regulation by the Fed gov’t. ....He should be able to respond very well to Trump’s questions relative to business, trade, energy and jobs.
Exactly! The candidates are willing to go onto those rancid late-night shows, where they are constantly the butt of jokes by the Obama-worshipping hosts. They join in debates (which have already been as crass and tacky as hell), sponsored by CBS, MSNBC, CNN, etc., where the condescending lefty moderators orchestrate questions and formats designed to make them all look foolish...
They are willing to basically grovel in those kind of venues, yet the prospect of the proposed Trump debate is somehow beneath them? That’s the part that gets to me, even if a certain wariness towards Trump is admittedly warranted. The big upside is that such a debate would probably reach a different audience beyond the conservative cable-news echo chamber, plus it would be far more likely an all-out barbecuing of Obama and his policies than the MSM debates would ever allow to happen.
