Watching the debate tonight I noticed several thing that demonstrated great bias:
1. Opened with hit #1, who will not pledge to support the nominee? They KNEW only Trump.
2. Trump calling Rosie names on twitter and are you a misogynist?
3. Even whn in Trump's sweet spot of immigration: PROVE Mexican govt is sending their criminals.
All in the first 20mins.
And never was a single question framed in a way that allowed him to shine.
It was damn awful just got ya questions all around! I use to like Beir and Kelly, not now. They screwed the pooch! Makes me sick!

And I actually AGREED with him there. I WILL NOT support some of the candidates on that stage. Trump was just nice and didn't say who...but I will. I will not vote GOP if its Bush or Christie. Everyone else I can vote with HAPPILY or hold my nose. Those two....never.
So I don't know what people were booing about....'cause I wouldn't pledge to support everyone on that stage either.
Yes .it exposed the media for who they are
the media tried to destroy Trump
the media are the enemy of the people and freedom
Oh I do hope you’re right.
I’d like to see her take hissy crissy wallace with her. I hate that smarmy little putz.
I noticed that at the time It seemed personal. Hannity. Had him afterwards. Hannity could smell a rat it seems. Want to hear Hannity’s show tomorrow on the radio, and Levin’s and Rush’s take as well.
So does my wife. I hope she is wrong. They did all they could to beat him up. He was either very pissed or very humiliated on the Hannity after action interview. I could not tell which it was.
He needs to suck it up and come back out swinging. Never let the bastards know they have cut you.
They can’t.. they are brilliant didn’t you know... just ask them.
Walker is my guy. I wondered what happened. No gaffe, just dull. The unfairness to Trump overwhelmed everything. Overshadowing good showings by Cruz Carson and Huck
Respect? For Kelly? Never. For my respect for that smart alec little tart to drop it would have to be lower than whale crap at the bottom of the Marianas Trench.
Triump the Insult Candidate manned up and confessed he wouldn't make such a pledge.
Then the little Hobbit, Bret Baier, tried to change it to pledging not to run as a third party candidate.
Triump shut that turd down by saying he wasn't refusing to pledge he wouldn't run as a third party candidate, he just wouldn't pledge to support the nominee not knowing who the nominee would be.
I'm with him on that. I owe Krispy Kreme and Li'l Jebbie no allegiance. I will have no problem leaving that circle blank should one of them be the nominee.
And don't bother trying to guilt trip me by saying a non-vote is a vote for Hitlery.
Krisply Kreme and Li'l Jebbie might as well be Hitlery.
Being given the questions and the answers and writing both on the back of his eyelids is the only he could answer them.
Something about those George and Barbara genes doesn’t translate into masses of grey matter very well.
I respect Trump for doing it. It was the truth.
I’m afraid that this country can’t handle the truth though.
If you are in a battle and someone has to die, make sure it is not you. If you are polite, respectful, considerate, hesitate you will be the one that dies.
“Debates are when everyone gets to answer the same question and attempt to persuade the audience of their position.”
THIS!
There was no “debate” tonight. As you posted, a debate gives each participant a chance to express their stand on a given topic (same topic to each participant) and then challenge/rebut other participant views. A “moderator” isn’t there to be an inquisitor or try to push an agenda. They are there to ensure each participant follows the rules of conduct for the debate, as in not taking more than the allotted times.
It’s impossible for even a fair minded moderator to ask different questions of each participant without showing bias and skewing the debate.
He seemed pissed, not humiliated... C’mon he is Trump.
Krisply Kreme is still obongo’s bitch.
In the after interview with Hannity he said his reform plan for SS is to raise the retirement age by two years over 24 years but to immediately means test for retirement income over $200k and assets over $4mm... “they don’t need it”. Hannity said that they paid in and it is a contract.. Chrispy Kreme said, “tough”. He had no hesitation... he is more of the same, class warfare, attack the small defenseless groups to gain traction with the masses. It is none of his damn business to say who needs what.
Jebbie would have to call in reinforcements to be a half-wit.
Fox could have set the standard in facilitating the debates, but they chose to take the low road and were worse than Candy Crowley.
“I never liked Megyn Kelly. I always thought she was overrated. But tonight was a disgrace. She is taking a beating on twitter and her facebook page. Well deserved.”
I hope the ratings at Fox plummet!
STE=Q
Pissed. Was thinking about retribution. I would not want to be Chris, Megyn, or Bret or Murdock for that clan. I would think I would rue the day I crossed the Donald. 10 billion dollars gives you a lot of retribrutive power, a lot, a whole f’ing lot.
