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.’

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.

I have NO idea at all.

What I DO know, is that Trump did the right thing and FOX is now going to lose a lot of viewers.

I got bad news for you.
Faux is going to set Cruz up just like they did with Trump in first debate.
90% of the candidates are now looking for their long knives to use on Cruz.
After Faux Mods and debate participants set up Cruz, the talking heads
will pile on Cruz. And last but not least Frank Luntz’s focus group will finish him off.

Watch and see.
Faux News is re-writing the scrip, as we post.

American's don’t boycott terrorists, we defeat terrorists! Isn't Trump tough enough to take on their PR flacks?

Part of defeating ISIS is not to enable them. This is Saudi stock control of Fox News. Don't believe me?

We have at least a dirty dozen hired guns for Cruz using the NR bs.

These vile sobs even mocked Jim Robinson for being a cripple over the weekend.

Watch the Zombie Freepers coming back alive after years of hibernation. They will be the walk on water real conservatives/Christians and the rest of us stupid jerks.

We probably need to revive the Viking Kitties to smoke them out and remove them!

When you are up 20pts over your opponent in the polls you don’t give the sucker an even break. LOL!

Trump will do a town hall and nobody will watch the debate.

Trump has friends in the tv industry and there will be documentation.

ABCNNBCBS and their cable outlets will help bring FAUX down with this vile shit.

There are a few good people at FAUX, and they will get the data out.

There is at least one FAUX mole that got this out.

I didn’t make the comparison. The Trump-haters did.

“Is this how he’s going to act when he’s president? How’s he going to deal with other world leaders?”

This is the answer to that question.

What if Obama and Kerry had had the stones to walk out on Iraq when the deal was too sour?

Trump just gave the perfect example of how he’d handle it. He’s work with them to a point. He’d try to make a fair deal. If they get stupid, he’s out.

The result?

Ailes has been desperately trying to call Trump and Trump isn’t taking his calls. He’ll only speak to the Big Dog and isn’t working with underlings anymore.

I cannot imagine the stress of campaigning for POTUS - for anybody. The media crawls up your butt with a microscope, twists your words, and tries to throw *anything* at you that they can. The video of Ted Cruz as a boy that’s circulating is such a joke, but the press is desperately trying to get people to take it seriously.

With all that pressure and so many expectations, it does take courage to stand up and buck the normative rules. As POTUS, you’ve got a nation and a war machine at your back. And yet every man who’s held the office has aged 20 years in 8.

Yes. I admire him. Once again, he’s controlling the narrative. If he does a job like this on Congress, we might actually have a chance.

Might be so....but I tend to think Cruz will handle anything they throw his way....it takes a great deal to actually rattle Cruz, he knows how to obsorb hits even if it might not be how viewers might think or want....and he’ll determine which ones he’ll fight back on.

I don’t over look that it’s billed as a debate but rare the candidates are actually given opportunity to do so.....the real work is done out there in the field not behind a camera.

No skin off my nose...I don’t determine my debate viewership based on polls any more than I do a candidate. All these numbers and percentages are nothing more than possibly what’s trending except to those that make a living by announcing them....everybody uses them to their own advantage, measures them and exacts what they choose from a select group of people.

Sure people get excited when their guy “looks” good.....but not one vote has been cast....not one.
