Reagan skipped the last debate before Iowa, Kelly has an endless parade of human debris on her show trashing Trump and supporting her bias attack on Trump.
I’ll bet advertiser’s are screaming at this point. Trump should do an interview or debate on another channel at the se time.
It ain’t Trump who ran to Michael Moore.....
Trump owned his television show, he knows all about sponsors,contracts, and ad money.
The Art of The Deal strikes again.
Reagan skipped the last debate before Iowa, do you feel the same way about him?
“Trump looks like a petulant little 3rd grader here. Presidential? Not so much.”
So, you think it is a responsible ting for a president to succumb to childish questions from a bimbo?? No thanks. I prefer a president to have discretion and a backbone and demand to be treated with respect.
“Even if Kelly is pulled off the debate, I don’t think Trump should go.”
I agree. But this is not about Megan anymore. This is about Trump gaining power and control over the media. No on else could do this. No one.
Sideline Megyn and dump the muslim and Mexican “plants.”
I don’t see the 6 Feb debate being cancelled, but the next question is if Trump will show up for that one. Will the Republican National Committee try to force him into showing? Will they ‘punish’ him into coming? If you were ABC, would you start planning a plan-B situation...maybe a Roller-Derby episode or run Rambo movie instead? If Trump beats Cruz by 10 points....I think most of the campaign business is finished and it’s just a waste of time to conclude another debate. If you talk to people...nine of ten are pretty decided now. Hoping that Trump would say something stupid and fall from his position? It just ain’t going to happen.
Each debate stands on its own footing.
I’m betting the debate will be cancelled.

Well, I’d take that bet. I’ll bet you $25 that the Thursday debate will go on. The loser will make an ADDITIONAL $25 donation to Free Republic. Are you on?
Well, yes. There’s still that. If I were Trump, I’d not even entertain some biased and pointed question of some American Jihadi (excuse me, Muslim-American!) These terrorists don’t represent mainstream America. How many are there? 5-7 million best guess. Maybe twice the number of homos and Jewish People, much much less than blacks and a whole lot less than Hispanics..... Who cares what these rabid dogs think?
Trump reveres his family, even his worst detractors can’t deny that. How is it playing if Fox News really did call his wife and daughter to get them to change his mind?
And you seem to be parroting Karl Rove talking points...
Trump is winning.
Fox debates are a freakshow. They have muslim activists and illegal immigrants lined up to question the candidates.
I think Trump should hold his ground and NOT attend the debate. It certainly would put future general debate hosts on notice. Screw me once, a Twitter attack, screw me twice, YOU ARE SCREWED!
Murdock to DT, "Oh please, please come Donnie. What if I tell her to spare you her really mean words and especially nasty mean looks with blood in her eyes!"
Look at them scramble, LOL. Good. Fox News is a tool of GOPe hacks. They’ve long abused their viewership by subtlety pandering to the cheap labor express with most of their “opinion” shows, and now seeing Megyn Kelly fist bumping with Michael friggin’ Moore is just more confirmation that I was right to turn that station off years ago and never look back. Good riddance to bad garbage.
Faux is re-writing Trump attack scripts to Cruz attack scripts.
Other candidates are looking for their long knives to viciously attack
Cruz. The after debate talking heads are re-writing their scripts too.
And finally Frank Luntz is having to adjust their pre-determined
outcome.
I don’t see how Faux re-writes all their scripts in 2 days.
Without Trump, they got nothing. Very few people will bother to watch a debate without one of the front runners participating.
They should have realized what a financial loss it would cause before they allowed one of their anchors to throw snark in his direction.
Trump knows how to play this game, and he's pretty good at it. I won't say Fox gives in, but I say they will certainly give him more respect in the future, especially if he wins Iowa.
