On Fridays broadcast of CNNs OutFront, Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alexander Marlow said the first primetime debate was a great debate between the Fox News anchors and between Donald Trump with establishment Fox trying to take out the businessman and GOP frontrunner.
Marlow said that pollster Frank Luntzs declaration that the primetime debate was the destruction of a presidential campaign for Trump is wishful thinking. He continued, We saw what last nights debate was, which was a great debate. It was a great debate between the Fox News anchors and between Donald Trump. There was also, I enjoyed the [Chris] Christie-Rand [Paul] spat. That was good too. But, for the most part, we saw that Fox was on a mission: theyre trying to take out Donald Trump. He continued: Fox is positioning themselves as a centrist network, as an establishment Republican network. Theyre not interested in Donald Trump and his supporters. His supporters are grassroots conservatives, and thats why he does so well.
Marlow was then asked by substitute host Kate Boulduan what was wrong with pushing Trump? He answered, Theres nothing wrong with pushing him on his record. Its just the vitriol and the tone, I think made Trump seem like a victim. He was sitting there smiling in the beginning, while hes essentially getting badgered. Marlow said that he expected the opening to have something to do with Hillary Clinton or specific policy positions. No, it was just, are you going to pledge allegiance to the Republican Party? This is clearly a gotcha question, and it was a gotcha debate.

Job 1. Take out Trump.
Job 2. Take out Cruz.
Maybe...
The problem is that Cruz comports himself with class. Unlike Trump (if you listen to the focus group), people are drawn to Cruz.
They can try to take him out, but I think it will be hard. Trump won’t be easy either, but they can rattle him more than Cruz.
Marlow is wrong. If Trump can’t properly answer those questions from the other night then he is going to get savaged by the msm. He couldn’t even give his proof as top why the Mexican government was helping illegals cross the border. It was embarrassing. Even FR has the stories if he needed the proof. Trump is a nice guy but he needs to stay away from this election.
Yep, Trump should quit so we can get back to the issues of butt sex, confederate flags and kill whitey.
