President Trump threatened Wednesday not to participate in presidential debates sponsored by “fake news networks.”
Riffing off a decision by the Democratic National Committee that Fox News is ineligible to host 2020 presidential primary debates because of pro-Republican bias, Mr. Trump said he’d reciprocate.
“Democrats just blocked @FoxNews from holding a debate. Good, then I think I’ll do the same thing with the Fake News Networks and the Radical Left Democrats in the General Election debates!” he wrote.

Any debate with former campaign, candidate, or party official should be skipped. Happy to see these taken from all of the networks.

Debate moderator Gwen Ifill at center of controversy over Obama book
David Zurawik
On the eve of one of the most anticipated debates in recent American political history, a side stage controversy has arisen that threatens the integrity of the main event itself.
And turn the mike off if you continue to speak after the time limit.
I will not watch the debates. Those phony ass clown shows are not worth my time.
Screw them.
Sounds good to me.
Solemn-faced PBS newswoman Judy Woodruff moderated a debate even though she had contributed $75,000 to Hitlery.

Hillary has been known to receive the questions in advance.
It was a bigger scandal than the Twenty-One gameshow scam but the media refused to cover it. So did the Feckless FEC and FCC. Screw them all. Worthless crooks.
Amen, my FRiend!
The Dems aren't used to that, they've had it all their way for way too long.
They can't get away with that with President Trump and it really gets to them.
I love it too!
Indeed. The constitution guarantees the press’ right to hold circus events and say they are news. No law saying we have to watch or the President has to attend. Bye bye ratings.
Sounds like a plan..why bother debating people who despise his very existence
He fights! Unlike 8 years of George W Bush who kissed leftists asses when they called him Hitler, a monkey, and a murderer
go on fox at the same time and we’ll see who gets the ratings.
CNN should be eliminated for dishing questions
As do I.
I am so contented with Donald, Malania, and Barron in the White House.
We know absolutely that certain candidates are given the questions beforehand.
“needs to Stop”
That’s been true for a long time, decades. Old admonition.
Who’s gonna stop them?
I can’t come up with funny memes, so I’m less than worthless.
That move could work against him, in the run up to the primaries, at least. He got tons of free press when he ran, last time. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve caught on, and don’t do THAT, again. (Except for negative stories).
I hope he doesn’t cave.
