In the past week I’ve learned that National Review is the bad guy, Fox News is the bad guy, Glenn Beck is the bad guy, Rick Perry is the bad guy, conservative Ted Cruz is the bad guy. I’m sure I’ve missed a few republican, conservative bad guys.

Trump has no big backers, no consultants, very limited paid advertising. We now see the truth about our US elections, so transparent and clear.

That’s interesting. Shows that they probably aren’t changing any minds with this. At least not in the way they would have liked. Would you interpret it that way? Or another?

The Trumpbots seem to be taking the night off. I think skipping the debate is letting some air out of the balloon. Anyone else agree?

Trump has only been on Fox 132 times since he began his run. Not sure who needs who the most. Fox surre has helped him if you ask me. Going on O’reilly twice a week doesn’t hurt.

So, I see for you kissing media butt is good and telling them where to go is bad.

right now I think believe in a profoundly unserious time, Obama was all soaring speeches and trump is bluff and bluster.. It saddens me greatly to think that those are as good as t gets

Cruz has the best understanding of the founders in my opinion.

Hey, easy on the media. I sat next to Suzanne Malveaux on the airplane today and she was very nice. True story.

Megyn Kelly turned the first debate into the kind of swill CNN dishes out to Republican candidates. Fox Business did a much better job. Trump knows it’s just a waste of time and no one needs a repeat. I’m not all in for Trump or Cruz at this point but I can understand Trump’s decision (or chess game). Fox is being stupid to go there. There are other people who can moderate and it’s a more constructive debate.

Great news! Just now at the Greta wire: Are you going to watch the debate? No 72% yes 26%.

MGYN and Rupert and the Trump snipers at Faux have Macied Fox News.

Everybody now knows that the new partner Google had a special surprise for the candidates, aimed particularly at Trump.

Good move Trump and FoxNews has a mole, IMHO.
Google had invited three YouTube personalities to ask questions at the Jan. 28 GOP debate - including a Muslim advocate who describes Donald Trump as a bigot and who visually portrayed him as being in agreement with national socialist Adolf Hitler.’

http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/01/26/2868743/

WOW. Fox was really going to bring out the long knives by way of youtuber surrogates. Republicans do not want to hear these questions. This is why these debates are a joke and why it is so important that Trump is not doing this debate. The liberal media (including Fox and all of the morning programs, not just the usual suspects like CNN) should not be running the Republican nomination process.

In fact, if/when Trump gets the nomination, the RNC i.e. Trump needs to ensure that no liberal media gets to run the debate. We should have no more acting like the moderators are neutral. When they are not. Instead, they rehearse and share the questions ahead of time with their candidate of choice.

Good for Trump. The charade of these debates finally has had the curtain pulled back. Why should the liberal hacks living in NYC, DC and VA get to manipulate how the candidates are viewed.

So tired of the lies and manipulations of the liberal press against conservatives.

Go Trump Go!

The plant liberal you tubers are probably going to be so upset after having rehearsed their attack lines against Trump, or their pro Rino candidate lines for Bush, et al.

No, running from them is exactly what a schoolyard bully does when someone finally hits back. Trump got hit by a girl and ran screaming!

Individually, and when not "on", I'm positive a lot of news people are as nice as anyone you'd ever want to meet and not the narcissists a few of the big names are. OTOH, when the show starts, they get in character and tow the line.

I'm wondering how the Cruz folks are going to react if Fox reams their guy out and makes him looks bad or, if Fox treats him to so many softballs that it's obvious. Either way, it'll be interesting to read about afterwords.

I shut the last one off before it finished and muted the TV several times. Those things aren't debates, they're precinct lineups with the "moderators" picking which one in the lineup they accuse of which crime against democrats, PC thought, or the media.

I mean, come on, inviting some Muzzie apologist to ask Trump about Immigration ? Geez, what's next, bringing in Huma Weiner to be a moderator ?

Why should he go?

Beside BLOODY KELLY, FNC is having 3 YouTubers, one of whom is an extreme MUSLIM ACTIVIST who claims that Trump is a "RACIST" and had intended to trash him.

This is a completely unnecessary "debate" and if people don't know who to choose by now, in Iowa, they are not paying attention.

I have watched every televised "political debate", since JFK V Nixon ! This FNC pile on has NEVER been done before.

Do you realize how ridiculous your criticism is? It’s like criticizing a boxer for blocking and ducking punches that come his way. This is a fight. Trump hits hard, and he doesn’t allow himself to be a sitting duck when his opponents try to hit back. Good offense, good defense. It’s called winning.

if you really believe that’s what this is about, then leave the strategic thinking to the grown-ups.

As far as I am concerned Lil Blondie is up 1 to zip. He blinked and then chickened out. Fox has had him on so much it is ridiculous and they have overwhelmingly been good to him.

The other networks will side up with him until he gets the nomination and then they will turn on him like a pack of rabid dogs. It will be a cold day in hell when the other MSM networks help him out for the general election.

He is a spoiled little child.
