TRUMP CAMPAIGN STATEMENT ON FOX NEWS DEBATE
(New York, NY) January 26th, 2016 - As someone who wrote one of the best-selling business books of all time, The Art of the Deal, who has built an incredible company, including some of the most valuable and iconic assets in the world, and as someone who has a personal net worth of many billions of dollars, Mr. Trump knows a bad deal when he sees one. FOX News is making tens of millions of dollars on debates, and setting ratings records (the highest in history), where as in previous years they were low-rated afterthoughts.
Unlike the very stupid, highly incompetent people running our country into the ground, Mr. Trump knows when to walk away. Roger Ailes and FOX News think they can toy with him, but Mr. Trump doesn’t play games. There have already been six debates, and according to all online debate polls including Drudge, Slate, Time Magazine, and many others, Mr. Trump has won all of them, in particular the last one. Whereas he has always been a job creator and not a debater, he nevertheless truly enjoys the debating process - and it has been very good for him, both in polls and popularity.
He will not be participating in the FOX News debate and will instead host an event in Iowa to raise money for the Veterans and Wounded Warriors, who have been treated so horribly by our all talk, no action politicians. Like running for office as an extremely successful person, this takes guts and it is the kind mentality our country needs in order to Make America Great Again.
Bad move by Trump. He will be labelled as too afraid to face Megyn Kelly. He can write a check to Wounded Warrior anytime.
Like a boss.
Do you really want to watch another yawn fest with the three amigos?
Thought that was at least truthful.
Trump wears his hair like one of those hat people.
Prominent Evangelical Jerry Falwell Jr. Endorses Donald Trump…
Should we assume you would put your head down and show up to an event that benefits people who just ridiculed you publicly. Not if you have a backbone.
Why bother? It won’t be a debate. It is a show for the moderators to insert themselves as the stars.
Hope this shows up - these are the top comments in order of “likes”
Mary Jane Pope I find this extremely substantiated. Fox News has multitudes of other ‘qualified’ employees, and ONLY chose Megyn Kelly as a moderator, to enjoy a record-setting viewership. Whoops. Big mistake. We the People are smarter than the media. #TRUMP16

Shaun Steele Trump doesn’t need debates... he’s practically running the country already. Let’s just skip the whole election

Herb Hutchison Thanks Fox News. You gave me back two hours of my life. With no Trump, you have no viewers. I will not be watching on Thursday. #Trump2016 #makeamericagreatagain

a Donald J. Trump is skipping the Foxnews Debate—GOOD DECISION...The debate has become all about a blonde news journalist....FOXNEWS should have taken her off as one of the debate hosts but they didn’t because they want the cheap ratings....Trump is doing the right thing.
“The last laugh is on Fox, i bet advertisers are already renegotiating or pulling out.”
Bingo.
Watching Jeb! and the Mailman is about as exciting as watching paint dry.
Not sure about the advertisers, but Fox just made a bone-headed move -
Google and Fox TV Invite Anti-Trump Muslim Advocate to Join Next GOP TV-Debate
It's like they have a deathwish or something.
Check the students reply.
His Mother did also.
I don’t think a 70 year old man running for POTUS should take his soccer ball and go home. Call me crazy.
See the numbers 1542 758 etc
Those are the numbers of “likes”
I had to go way down to get a poor response to him dropping out and it had 83 likes a little while ago.
Fox screwed up.
Having a rally to raise funds for veterans was the winning chess move.
Now, America has a choice. They can watch a boring, dry GOP debate, or they can tune in and support the troops!
Debates got us McCain and Romney, not because they won but because the press used them to attack the non-establishment candidates.
“I’m tired of winning already!!”
LMAO!!
