Trump shares his debate question on Facebook
KTUU-TV ^ | August 3, 2015 | Theodore Schleifer CNN

Facebook is asking its users to recommend questions to ask Republican presidential candidates at the debate it is co-hosting with Fox News on Thursday, and Donald Trump was more than happy to help out.

Trump, who will stand at the center of the stage in Cleveland, Ohio, offered his own question for the other candidates in a 12-second video posted Monday.

"I'd like to ask all of the candidates -- that is, politicians and really not negotiators, people that don't negotiate jobs and lots of other things -- how are you going to make America great again?" Trump said....

Trump has an answer

UNIONS! Higher Taxes! Nationalized Healthcare! Restrictions on the 2nd amendment!

We need to emulate his favorite President, Bill Clinton, and show that we can “triangulate” and fool a plurality to vote for us!

The Phony Crony for President!

How is he? We’ve heard a lot of superlatives, but not much in specifics.

I have no idea what, if anything this bunch will do or try to do, but I know what I would do. I would hold a Cabinet meeting as soon as they were all confirmed and tell them their first order of business was to present a budget for their departments with a 10% reduction. Across the board reductions.
Then we go from there. No histrionics, leave that to the Democrats.

The first dust-up will occur when Trump is asked his first question by one of the hosts who will craft his question so as to make himself appear master of any number of admirable traits, such as boldness, cunning, insight, brilliance, etc., in an attempt to trip up Trump. He/she will not succeed.

Then, the other candidates will certainly be reticent to challenge Trump by name, since he will automatically have a rebuttal session, but will aim barbs at him by twisting and misquoting him. Their statement will be construed in such as way as to showcase how their heart pines for all types of purity and how sensible and extremely brilliant they are compared to Trump, who is not, as everyone knows, a politician, but a loose cannon and therefore cannot be trusted in the exalted political circles they inhabit.

If Perry is in the mix, you can expect him to challenge Trump by name the first time he opens his mouth so as to get talked about and possibly remembered.

One way to make America great again is to lift the yoke of government off of American citizens. The Obamunist in the Rainbow House has said that ‘we’ can’t just set our thermostats at temperatures we’d like (as he does), that ‘we’ can’t just go wherever we’d like in our gas guzzling vehicles (as he does), that we can’t just eat whatever rich foods we’d like to (as he does).

WHY can’t we do these things? Because to him America’s standard of living was too high, other nations’ citizens did without.

Get the Commie out of the White House and stop knocking down this country and its people.

You dislike Trump pretty much. That’s evident. Who is your preferred candidate?

Looks like Perry didn’t make it:

Perry, others likely out of Fox debate, get their chance in forum

This is a smart move. Get the GOPe focused on a question that may never be asked. Then broadside them with the tough stuff.

You need to goose step behind the TRump followers....or else!!!

PS...Trump may///MAY NOT be the right one for the conservatives but only time will tell....in the meantime thinking people should be watching very closely and not jump right in.

My question for each candidate is: “Illegal immigration, tax evasion, assaults on freedoms and a lawless regime, what law do I get to break?”

And no equivocation!
