Donald Trump: CNBC debate will be 'unfair'
Politico ^ | 10/28/15 | Hadas Gold

Posted on 10/28/2015 9:30:02 AM PDT by randita

Donald Trump is already convinced the CNBC GOP primary debate on Wednesday night will be stacked against him. Despite his long history with CNBC, having been featured in regular segments and flattering specials such as "CNBC Titans" and "Billionaire Inside," Trump told POLITICO and said in two tweets that he thinks the debate would not be fair. "No, I don't expect the debate to be fair," Trump told POLITICO on Monday. "After a great evening and packed auditorium in Iowa, I am now in Colorado looking forward to what I am sure will be a very unfair debate!" Trump tweeted on Wednesday morning, followed by ".@CNBC continues to report fictious poll numbers. Number one, based on every statistic, is Trump (by a wide margin). They just can't say it!" For their part, moderators Carl Quintanilla, Becky Quick and John Harwood have all pledged to be fair and give equal time to all the candidates.

Absolutely.

Harwood is a gutless piece of Leftist filth.

He's married to a Leftist senator, for pity's sake, Maria Cantwell of Washington State.

He abandoned his first wife (pictured with daughter) to sneak around with Cantwell...

...and when the press got wind of it he called and begged, weeping like the nutless squirrel he is, to ge the story SPIKED.

So this is the sort of lying, cheating, sniveling scum that is anchoring the Republican debate...disgusting.

John Harwood is nothing but an Obamabot/Democrat Party boot licker!!! You would think the RNC had the spine to demand impartial moderators.....don’t hold your breath!!! The good news is, th overwhelming number of American voters know how unfair, biased & lie telling the Obamabot Mainstream Media is!!!

And.....Trump knows them quite well also, and will call them task all night if necessary!!!! Go Trump!!!

Of course it won’t be fair. It’s CNBC. Instead of whining about it, Trump could refuse to participate.

I went to high school with a girl they called Becky Quick. But I doubt it’s the same person.

Hold it right there! Patton was a military genius and the Aholes were Eisenhower and Bradley, great forerunners of the PC set.

Kasich, polling somewhere in the low single digits has already said he’ll slam Trump on talking credit for Ford going to Ohio and not China. He said he’s responsible.

Kasich is an idiot. But on this, he's 100% correct.

“OTOH, at one of the gop debates was filled with trump and cruz bashers.. Cruz only candidate not to get any applause after the start statements. I rewound to check. I think gopee stacked the audience. Have they not control over who gets in?”

Think I read on this thread that the auditorium holds 11,000 (could be wrong about that number). No, there is no control over who gets in per individual. I don't agree with those who say the audience is stacked against this or that candidate.

This debate was agreed to many months ago by the national Republican Party whose chairman is Reince Priebus. The national party determines how many debates there will be and that was decided months ago before the election season started. They don't/can't pick all the people to come to those debates.

The National Republican Party is made up of a Republican man and woman from every state. I knew the lady from Texas and about a couple of years or ago, she suddenly dropped dead from a heart attack and she had no earlier warning she had a bad heart. It was a real surprise she was gone. I also know the lady now who is our representative to the national party board.

Anyway, that is how debates come about, the decision of how many and where they will be is decided by this board.

Funny Kasich never mentioned a Ford plant in the first two debates, it was always Trump.

I saw your anti-Trump posts on another thread this morning. You were going on about how Ohio elected Walker.

Your credibility is Zero.

Just pointing that out to others here.

And your moniker was created to try and blend you into a conservative forum, like so many other stealth posters do. But you tripped yourself up to reveal you are a troll.

RE:”You mean with or without fraud?”
Its so funny how Dems beat Romney with voter fraud in Ohio yet Walker won re-election in same election(same ballots).

You would think that they would have stolen both at the same time given all the efforts they put-into recalling him.

One of lifes big mysteries.

is fraud going to be the excuse if Trump gets dumped by Hillary or Bernie?

Good heavens, how ignorant are you? Walker ran in WI for governor, Ohio was a national election - Romney. You are trying to be a troll and are too stupid to qualify.

RE:”I saw your anti-Trump posts on another thread this morning.”

The example of that which you are pointing to is where am ridiculing those arguments defending Romney.

That is not a great example unless you equate Trump as Romney.

I don't support liberals, its that simple.Support who you like.

You’re not fit to be commenting on anything here. You have nothing to contribute.

Go away.

A troll dissing Romney.

Sorry you are ‘concerned’ about that.
