This move is brilliant on several levels.
- This would have been what, the 42 Republican debate? They were getting repetitious.
- Trump just stole the news cycle, *again*!
- Trump bitch slapped the media. Something most Republican voters have been itching for someone in the GOP to do for the longest time.
- Trump instead goes to Iowa and raises funds for vets. That’s two scoops of positive press right there.
- Now the remaining candidates have to ask themselves; do I play along with Fox News and look like a submissive wimp, plus no one will be watching, or do I pull the plug on the debate too.
Do they have a choice? Where will they go to get that much PR? Do they have a choice? They get no publicity on their own. Do they have a choice? They only know how to go from the watering hole and field to the barn for milking by the media. There is a deep path worn there.
