So Megyn with a Y has deleted all the negative twitter comments on her page. All of them. And Fox is not answering nor posting any new tweets. Nothing. Who’s scared now?

Beutiful strategy.

This is our next leader of the nation, won’t bow down or kiss anyones hands!

Fox does NOT control America.

Now if by chance they were to say donate half of the ad revenue to Veterans then perhaps Trump will consider it.

I’m glad. He doesn’t need to be there. It was going to be an all out attack on him from all sides just before Iowa. Now nobody will watch.

Anyone who truly wants to understand their candidates relative positions and validate their choice should be for this 100%.

A guy who has had six shots to gain the lead always wants more debates. Honestly, I read the Fox release and Fox should be ashamed. Not only that, it gave Trump a perfect out to cut the debate charade short.

So now, Cruz is going to run around like a boxer who had six title fights - losing them all - and claim the champ owes him a shot. I can hear it now, "Trump is ducking me!" After looking at the lying eminent domain ad, Trump owes Cruz nothing.

I guess Donald doesn’t want to debate eminent domain with Ted Cruz

..........or to have Megyn ask him if it is true "he could work with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid"..

As Mark Levin said, " we voted them OUT we could not stand them "... and now Trump is saying HE LIKES THEM and can work WITH THEM.

I TELL YOU ,he is scaring me more and more. Even his behavior in controlling. NOT going to the debate, says to me, I'll do it MY WAY or NOT at ALL... Not Presidential.

He can always STAND UP to Megyn Kelly.... and speak his mind..

Correct, and they probably think this is their last shot at destroying Trump.

Yes, I saw what his excuse was. Given his history over the last few decades, I am extremely skeptical of anything Trump says.

The girl is less than fawning towards The Donald. He's not used to that and it can be scary.

Good grief how soon we forget the famous “11th commandment” of the GOP.

“He’s just skeered.”

After that insult? Is that the way people control you?

Yes, and as usual, the Pubbies are more than happy enough to finish the job for them. The rancor being created should not be underestimated as it appears to be here at good ol’ FR

You're taking it out on your fellow FReepers.

I'm not taking it out on my fellow FReepers. I'm criticizing Trump. I think he's a terrible candidate and no conservative.

AMERICANS, “BOYCOTT THE FOX NEWS CHANNEL DEBATE, COMING THIS THURSDAY!!!”

I agree. If we support Trump, we should back him 100%. That means not watching those who have made themselves enemies. The truth is that they really are our enemies too. Their attempts to twist and hide the truth from us deserves a thrashing. They may yet learn to be real journalists again.

Trumps a marginal debater. Ted Cruz is a professional debater. Why on earth would Trump agree?

The proper format for such confrontation and equalizer would be each given 30 minutes of blind time to give a speech. Meaning each would not see the others 30 minutes of speech.

You’d think anti-Trump Freepers would start their Trump denunciations off with :At last someone has stood up to these biased debates!” and then say “But ...”.

These days I count any thread with less than 95% partisan babble a good one.

Definitely following Trump here, and boycotting Fox.

Cruz should be thankful, he gets center stage.

You are a thief! You stole thoughts right out of my brain!
Just joshing you....you are 100% correct. Now watch the ratings tank for this debate.

-— Trump disgusts me. I think he’s a disgrace. -—

Yes. His supporters love this, but it’s a huge unforced error.

People will be asking, where’s Trump? “He was mad at Megyn Kelly, or something.” “Really? That’s all?”

I don’t see Trump going through with this. He has two days to change his mind. I’m afraid that Ailes will apologize when he should be telling Trump to stuff it.

Trump saw Luntz’ focus group. He knows Cruz won the last debate. He created this phony controversy to save face. He ALWAYS distracts when he’s in a bind. Last time he hid behind the NYFD. Now he’s hiding behind vets.

Answer this question.

If Trump is so “bad” why is it that his rallies draw a LOT MORE PEOPLE than any of the other folks running, even Cruz? That says something. People are tired of the GOPe and the Dems.
