I think many are missing the point. Trump realizes Obama has diminished his ability to increase his wealth. The prior debates have had maybe 1 million people watching, which is a grand total of .3% (or so) of our population. That would get any network pilot cancelled immediately. The question is, can we tolerate a debate moderated by a guy that cares as much about his hair as the candidates.
The way I look at it is Trump will hopefully deliver viewers that would not otherwise watch. The format will be suspect and all about Donald, but certainly not a CNN/MSNBC hostile environment.
Put Newt in a real environment, and like past debates, he will likely be the only one who will directly answer questions without discounting them while promoting his platform.
The Donald is in it for himself. He wants the $$, and will support the candidate that can create the economic environment most likely to make that happen.
Did Romney bail because the Donald jsut met with Newt?
The way I see it is Trump is going to school America on the difference between a business mogul vs the MSM giving a debate.
“The Donald is in it for himself.”
Perhaps, but I can’t help thinking that he will be far less biased, and not interested in damaging anybody, unlike Brian Williams, or Wolf Blitzer.
