(New York, NY) January 26th, 2016 - As someone who wrote one of the best-selling business books of all time, The Art of the Deal, who has built an incredible company, including some of the most valuable and iconic assets in the world, and as someone who has a personal net worth of many billions of dollars, Mr. Trump knows a bad deal when he sees one. FOX News is making tens of millions of dollars on debates, and setting ratings records (the highest in history), where as in previous years they were low-rated afterthoughts.
Unlike the very stupid, highly incompetent people running our country into the ground, Mr. Trump knows when to walk away. Roger Ailes and FOX News think they can toy with him, but Mr. Trump doesn’t play games. There have already been six debates, and according to all online debate polls including Drudge, Slate, Time Magazine, and many others, Mr. Trump has won all of them, in particular the last one. Whereas he has always been a job creator and not a debater, he nevertheless truly enjoys the debating process - and it has been very good for him, both in polls and popularity.
He will not be participating in the FOX News debate and will instead host an event in Iowa to raise money for the Veterans and Wounded Warriors, who have been treated so horribly by our all talk, no action politicians. Like running for office as an extremely successful person, this takes guts and it is the kind mentality our country needs in order to Make America Great Again.

Brilliant! It was a trap anyhow. Trump won the last 6 debates, and the DNC who had only 3 debates is already over.
The Establishment is furious because this means Iowa goes to Trump.

Except that Ted is part of the GOPE - he worked in the Bush administration - he isn’t an outsider.
Beautiful thing is, they would crush FAUX news.
Lol!
Exactly...he is a bully and a coward (like all bullies).
A blonde news reader sends Donald reaching for the Depends. And yet the crowds love him...Bravo Donald for pulling the greatest con game ever.
Good idea. But rather than a debate it should focus on veterans issues and what can be done to improve the situation. It is a crime how our veterans are treated.
Exactly. Should we chip in and buy him a pair of big boy pants?
Look, we all knew he was an emotional adolescent from the very beginning. He’s starting to flame out, and that’s a good thing in my book.
Niiiiiice attempt to spin the antics of the ‘nadless wonder.
Thanks for that link
That's just plain stupid on the part of Fox. It removes any pretense of fairness and objectivity on their part. Another point in Trump's favor.

No surprise, though. It's always been all about Trump. That's becoming more transparent by the hour.
Call it a "statement of positions" where only one is at the podium at any time.
The other walks offstage.
I sure there are some "legal weasel" wiggle room where such an event can happen.
He built the Vietnam memorial in NYC back in the 80’s too. He doesn’t sound like such a liberal as he has been portrayed in the past few weeks.
Bless his heart...
I disagree. I understand why you say that, but too many people would view it as a campaign stunt on the part of Cruz.
Interesting and scary that he pulled this off with the entire world watching. A very sad commentary of our times, IMHO.
Hannity pimping Cruz shamelessly tonight.
And Cruz. Cruz will be the target left for the rest of the field.
Trump is supposed to be on. But he brought out Cruz first.
