Speaking on Good Morning America and Morning Joe this morning, Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski hinted that other candidates were thinking of dropping out of the upcoming Fox News debate after Trump decided to bail.
He asserted that anchor Megyn Kelly was "obsessed" with his boss, which was one reason why Trump decided not to participate.
"Megyn Kelly is totally obsessed with Mr. Trump," Lewandowski said on Good Morning America. "She's done multiple shows on why he shouldn't be even involved in the race on television. She's completely obsessed with him. It's impossible to have a fair and honest debate."
Lewandowski argued that Fox News was trying to use the event to promote its own employees, not the issues that mattered to voters.
"What Fox wants to do is they want to have 24 million people tune in to watch Donald Trump so that their anchors can have the story about them," he said, pointing out that Trump could see it was a "bad deal" to appear at the debate.
Lewandowski previewed a Trump event in Des Moines, saying he would be raising money for wounded veterans, and said in an interview on Morning Joe that other campaigns had phoned them for details of the event.
"I had a number of calls yesterday with some of the other campaigns who said, hey, can we come and join you in raising money for the wounded warriors, for veterans because, you know, if Fox isn't going to be fair to you, what makes you think they're going to be fair to us," he said.
He called Fox executives "very dishonest" for accusing him of threatening Kelly in phone calls, and accused them of favoring other candidates because they had family members working for them.

Yeah, right.
Anyone know how they are going to raise money for this event?
Oh, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE someone join TRUMP (PEACE BE UPON HIM) in his BLESSED boycott. HINT, HINT, HINT....one of you losers could be the running mate if you do this.
“Yeah, right.”
Yeah right what? It would be a hoot if some of the others bailed too.
WOW. I hope this is true. I know that Carson and Trump had planned on doing in an earlier debate. This would be great!
Leaders lead, followers follow....
After learning of Fox and Google’s plan to attack Trump using a Muslim women that compares Trump to Hitler, and a Latina that hates Trump, the others should drop out, but they are cowards, so they will kiss Fox butt.
From Ace:
“So in other words, a representative and spokesman for Fox goes out and makes the exact case against Trump that all the Rubio supporters and Establishment people are making against him, that he’s thin-skinned and if he can’t stand up to Megyn Kelly, how can he stand up to world dictators?
Now, if you don’t like Trump, you might very well agree with that sentiment.
But, dig this: A media organization is really not supposed to act as a house organ for a particular faction of a political party.”
Heads will roll because of this.
And it won’t be Trumps head.
Fox isn’t worried. They can always replace a GOP candidate with Megyn Kelly’s BFF Michael Fat Pig Moore.
Even thought Trump has an over whelming majority of supporters. Fox News said their Establishment Hack, who was trying to set up Trump, is more important than the American people.
I'm not watching the MEEEEgyn Kelly debate.
translation: More people will be watching QVC than watching this shindig without Trump.
Tippy toes Jeb probably won’t cancel.
Is Fox News Preparing Proverbial âKill Shotâ Against Trump Campaign?
Veteran treatment and respect for veterans in Iowa is a huge deal according to some relatives who live there. If Trump pulls it off in a way to honor the veterans and gets in his love of country this could be a huge plus for him. If he turns it into a bashing event it will not go well for him with the voters.
Without Trump, it’s not going to be much of a debate.
