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 too don’t understand why Bachman refused. I know she is not afraid of him. Yes, Trump is a powerful and smart businessman with a lot of common sense, very few of those types around anymore.
...”However, Sarah Palin had a different perspective. Advising candidates to focus on exposure, she suggested, “What is a bit appealing about this idea of Trump hosting a debate is, consider the diverse audience that perhaps he can attract.” Indeed, while Trump is not exactly looked at as the senior authority on being taken seriously, there is no doubt that his name is well-known, and he could attract audiences that might not otherwise watch”...
She is exactly right..I have not watched the other debates because I know who I support already..However, I would watch a debate run by Trump..It would be different and more interesting.
