The next Republican debate is coming up this Thursday and will be hosted by FOX News. Based on their back and forth the last time FOX News hosted, Donald Trump asked the network to take Megyn Kelly off the moderator desk.

Trump is a master marketer, he knows this “feud” is good for ratings.

And also the reason he’s spent almost no money on his campaign!
Why not? You have said it yourself. Unfairly is unfairly. Is it wrong to be expected to receive as close to unbiased as we can get for a "moderator". Or do we just capitulate to a proven harpy because geez she type A. Good for her. A debate for the highest executive position of the United States can do without it. IMO.
Trump will handle himself in a much better fashion.
If he doesn't like her question he will just not answer it. He has learned.
I’ll guarantee you those of us who support Trump would’ve been equally outraged if she treated Cruz this way.
Me Gyn Crowley Kelly did in fact attack Cruz on religion.
Since this Nasty HO has gone on Sterns show to talk filthy and tell all about her sexual life, and pose with her Boob exposed, she has nerve attacking Cruz for being a Christian.
Kelly brought up as about the first question in the first debate the Rosie O’donnell attack on Trump. Well Rosie has been fired for her nasty insane outbursts, an I think Trump handled her the right way.
Last week Kelly went all NRO on Trump and Phyllis S. and Pat Buchanon came back and stated they aint so conservative. Schlafly endorsed Trump and said many who attacked him do this for money. Buchanon said Buckley was for giving away the Panama canal.
One more observation, Trumps wife and daughter are true beauties, Me Gyn has a crooked nose and ferret face. She is an 7.5 out of 10.
Poll FReep: If the election were held today, who would be your first choice for President of the United States?
Even if Megyn were not there, except more fireworks. These mods can’t avoid arguments from occurring. But with Megyn on board they will force fighting. You know she will ask about the NRO or about Palin endorsing Trump. Megyn likes to do this. It’s what she does.
Didn’t proofread. I meant expect not except.
In the end....Trump is represented by the people (as his rallies attest) and all others are represented by the press.
One reason this RNC clap trap as to standing by Trump is a bucket of slush. IF they were standing by Trump, it would not be Trump asking for Megyn Kelly to be removed and replaced. It would be the RNC. They were fast on the draw to oust NRO from the debate, they could show ‘fair and balanced’ to do the same to FOX. Don’t trust them - remember what they have done in the past.. Mississippi, Trump (AnyOne but Trump) One more strike and they are OUT! PERIOD no ifs ands or buts
She’s getting on in years.
Soon to be known as the aging and bitter dowager of Fox News.
[but no bleeding]
As a Cruz AND Trump supporter, in spite of the bad blood between the two candidates and their supporters, I would not mind if Trump had said he would not attend if she moderated.
It would be a risky move, but he could get away with it. Fox would lose that staring match.
But then again, this will boost the ratings for Fox and Trump. Everyone will tune in to see what happens.
If trump refused to go to the debate then Fox would be forced to change their mind.
Yeah. . .he hits back at her snark and he is a bully and if he lets her run-over him he is a wimp.
There is no upside to this for Trump and FN knows this (Jeb!supporters all).
“My guess is, Trump knew they wouldn’t remove her; he simply put her on notice. :-D”
Trump made his point.
That’s right. I remember that. Very good point.
The Trump of the first debate isn’t the Trump of the 7th Debate. He has learned a great deal-—She may find him a more savvy opponent. It will be interesting to watch—She will play it differently this time—barbs will still be their—but not as open. She will still play the “War on Women card” She will not have the help of others on the stage. Her goal to “expose him” as not competent to be president (and Rubio is). She may have some sharp barbs for Cruz as well.
Can’t judge much in a debate it’s just a tell them what they want to hear contest one must judge one by past actions.
