The faux trio of debate moderators at Fox are scrambling to re-compose the hit questions for Thursday night. Every question will center around “what do you think of Trump’s position on............................? BORING

Trump can handle anything Cruz has to say,,and it’s not a given the so-called moderators would give him a chance to respond in the ‘debate’ anyway.

Trump can respond through the media outlets.

They can report any ratings they want to report. Who’s going to challenge them?

You’re too funny. Roger Ailes just lost $100 million dollars by putting out a retarded press release. DUMB Roger. Chess much?

See post #12.

A real piece of trash from Ailes or one of his flunkies.

It’s not about handling Fox. That’s how the media has always manipulated the GOP candidates.

It’s about throwing down the gauntlet and sticking to your guns.

Some would call that being “strong”

Fox is making $$$$$ off Trump. Why should he allow them to do that?

Something tells me he’ll get by and FNC will do just fine. Maybe Trust Fund Donnie can do a Town Hall on MSNBC where he can tell them all how much he loves Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer again.

After Fox’s press release Trump would be a fool to show up. His choices were show up and be slammed like a bastard step child or tell them to stick it. He told them to stick it. Now I wonder what Fox will say.

I only hope fox sticks to using Megyn for this and doesn’t give in to trump. As someone who supports Trump I didn’t want this debate. It’s at least one too many and just an opportunity to try and kill him off politically (good luck).

Trump is playing power politics and laying it on the line.
For those who bitch about “Oh lord, how will he deal with Putin??!!”

Wellllll...
Like this. Play by my rules or go take a hike. We’ll see then how far Putin and others of his ilk want to take it.

Not likely. I cheered. Why the heck should he show up? He's ahead. Everyone there is going to go all out against him. FOX will have it out for him. And if he goes on he gives them huge ratings with no benefits. Smart move to do an alternate event that will probably outpull the debate now.

I have now read it 5 times and I still can’t believe that it originated for any firm with more than 5 employees. It is breathtakingly amateurish and snarky in such a way it is obvious that Trump resides in Fox execs noggins.
