Trump isn't the first top-tier presidential candidate to skip a debate. Ronald Reagan did not attend a Republican debate ahead of the 1980 Iowa caucuses, which he lost to George H.W. Bush. Reagan went on to the win the nomination and the presidency.

Most people don’t know who Tony Perkins is...
And among those of us who do many are neither surprised nor impressed by the endorsement.
Now we are comparing Trump to Reagan. Can it get any sillier?
Why is FR playing down the huge Tony Perkins Endorsement for Cruz?
No you’re a woman. Get it right.
Exactly. This is what most are missing. Cruz knows it. It's a brilliant political move by trump.
IMHo, it's about Trump knowing it was an ambush and being smart enough to not walk into an ambush. When the Muzzie apologist and the Google gaggle all go after Cruz because Trump isn't there a lot of people will be singing a different song.
Should be fun.
Rather than whining, again, and rushing/desiring to be with Trump....CRuz should seize this opportunity to *shine*.
And imagine how shiny Trump would be and what a slap at Fox it would be if he agreed to debate Cruz one-on-one on any network other than Fox. But it would also be fun to see pigs fly, too.
I met Reagan Donald is no Reagan
No, he was always principled and trustworthy - Even if some things didn't work out that well.
Trump is no Reagan. Not even in the same zipcode.
The Rock Star Trump will not be there. People may blame Kelly for a long time. Will it influence future advertisements? More money is charged for larger ratings.
Lower ratings the cost of advertisement is less. Didn’t MSNBC suffer loses for future shows when they conducted a poorly run debate?
Michael Reagan: Trump is no Reagan Republican
“You can’t be a Trump Republican and a Reagan Republican. It’s time to choose.”

Exactly. The Cruz or Rubio supporters wish their candidate had the guts to do what The Donald is doing!
Reagan was a nut case
Can't let him near the nuclear button
This was said by the GOP
He did things his way and yes he worked with Democrats , see Boston liberal House Speaker Tip O' Neil
They also share that liberal, Democrat background that propelled Reagan to bring those Blue Dog Democrats into the Republican side.
Trump is just like Reagan . . the only candidate who has the slightest chance of coalescing with the ‘other side’ and Independents, too.
Both of these guys are fantastic.
We never have had this level of strategic play in primaries before. Either gentleman will be a credit to the office and country.
Or maybe Trump is a coward, afraid of a girl’s tough questions.
This is nothing new.
Because next to no one knows who he is.
Why are you spamming thread after thread with your BH whining???
