I’m delighted because that means I can actually skip that obnoxious thing. Trump is my only drawing card. I am certainly not drawn by the usual off-point subject matter or the format which has nothing to do with a “debate” but everything to do with putting the spotlight on the obnoxious “moderators”.
Frickin’ brilliant.
Trump bails out of a debate blaming Fox’s anchor.
This was THE DEBATE in which Ted Cruz’s only job was to clean Donald’s clock, and Donald bails out on the basis of something else, which keeps the media busy not noticing his sidestep.
Brilliant.
The “political class” can kiss my a**!
Is Fox News Preparing Proverbial “Kill Shot†Against Trump Campaign?
Stupid comparison.
Putin leads a state, and our relations are determined by economic, political and military strength and realities. If Putin was as big a bitch as Megyn Kelly, he wouldn't meet with him either, he would just do what we needed to do. Meetings are set up ahead of time with agendas and agreements.
The Republican debates during the primaries should be for the purpose of helping Republican voters decide who to vote for during the primary. When hosted by CNN, they are instead a vehicle for ridicule of Republican candidates so that they all are viewed by the electorate as a whole as jokes.
When hosted by Fox news, the debates are a vehicle for attempting to "take out" the candidates who the GOP establishment does not like. Especially to take out Trump. He is the anti-establishment candidate with the greatest chance of winning the nomination. So even other candidates they hate will not be attacked like Trump.
Romney knew what he was getting into when he went to the stupid CNN debate with Obama. He did it anyway. The standard reason to participate is fear, fear of stupid statements like "can't deal with Candy Crowley, and you want to be President"? Yet Candy Crowley stuck a shiv in his campaign, because she had a microphone and control of the event. Megyn Kelly has the microphone and control of the event. She can go after Trump in all kinds of ways that he can't fight back against, and because she actively wants him to lose. Moderators may have private opinions, but it should not affect their questions or handling of the debate. Trump is right to tell Fox to get rid of a moderator who is actively working against him. They might as well let Jeb!'s campaign manager ask the questions.
Better to walk away. It also sets a precedent for the general, where the standard CNN, NBC, CBS format of attack the Republican should not be accepted this time.
Oh the ABSURD questions.....and comments. He’s afraid, he’s afraid.
Interesting times.
