Panic Time for FOX and GOP….
FOX News host Greta Van Susteren asked her conservative viewers if they will tune in to Thursday’s GOP debate now that Donald Trump has announced he will not participate.

Trump will host a Vet Fund Raiser, all red-white-and-blue, in Des Moines, televised at precisely at the same time as the debate.
Trump not only denied them a ratings draw, he set up a competing program.
I can’t wait to see what the actual ratings are for this farce.
No...the clear majority are Trump supporters and they're expressing their opinions. Nobody who matters will tune in tomorrow night. I'm sure you'll be watching.
How would you know, unless you trolled the site and voted.
There won't be more than 6 million who watch. It won't be anywhere near the ratings Trump brings. So you are 100 percent wrong. It will be equivalent to a Democratic Debate.
I will not watch without Trump. I will not watch with Trump. I do not like debates and will not watch them, they ceased being useful in elections years ago.
You listening to Rush? He is saying exactly this. Trump is tearing down the whole media establishment and their control over the political process.
“I wasn’t going to watch it anyway.”
Same here. I don’t watch any of them actually.
The primary will mostly come down to Trump or Cruz. Why do Jeb and the lesser dwarves even bother? Do we really expect to learn anything new?
Greta?
She was a lawyer who repeated ‘beyond a reasonable doubt’ ad infinitum during the OJ trial and was treated as clever and insightful.
It remains a mystery as to why she is worthy of a prime time news show.
Well duh, who wants to watch a bunch of ankle-biters stand around discussing Donald Trump, when they could watch the real thing on another channel?
I'm guessing that Kelly wrote the snarky one earlier in the day and Ailes wrote the one accusing Trump of Terrorism.
No, but he's right. If nothing else comes out of this campaign this is tremendous progress. I more than half suspect that the reason so many people get into journalism these days is for the power - they couch it in terms like "make a difference" but that's exactly what that means.
Of course, it's possible Rush is listening to me. And I do believe a purple monkey just flew out of my nether region... ;-)
“We report, you decide” - too much truth - Right wing stuff.
“Fair and balanced” - dumb and dumber - truth and lies - much more politically correct, Left wing stuff.
Is MK that valuable to them?
Whatever helps you sleep at night!
I wonder if any advertisers signed up for the debate already and unable to change the contract - so forced to pay 750k instead of 150k
Trump is the only one running who doesn't need the money.
All other politicians are owned by rich donors. Politicians in
Washington DC are corrupt(NO ONE can deny this simple fact). Washington dc is a den of corruption and evil , socialist evil.
Trump is the only one that can save America from the slide the media and the politicians have put us in , a slide into the abyss of a hell, called socialism.
I'll bet it was Chris Firewall or Stierwalt or whatever, y'know, the Megan fanboy. Sound a lot like the lame jokes he gets off every once in a while on the air.
