Maybe in your eyes a tremendous move. To me looks like the kid that is taking his ball and going home because the game is to tough for him. A real wuss move. He’s acting like a real whiner instead of a real winner.

If all questions should be asked of all participants then the democrats in their debate could not ask Hillary about her emails because it is specific to her. I guess you don’t want Trump tested.

Joe Scarborough was right. Trump has nothing to lose by skipping this debate which is an obvious attempt to ambush him before the Iowa caucus. He has shown up to 6 previous debates and done just fine. We are looking forward to watching a Townhall instead. Enough with the debates.

Fox news has just screwed themselves.

It's sad when you are complimented and supported by Morning Joe, MSNBC, and CNN.

Worse than that, I agree with them.

yoy, makes me want to take another shower.

Trump is a breath of fresh air. He has done more in 6 months than you conservatives have done in ten years.

Evidence, please. Name one law that has been changed. One government policy fixed. One statute rewritten.

Trump has said a lot. He has made the MSM look foolish. He's insulted conservatives and Republicans by the dozen (not so many Democrats, though... those folks he "gets along with"). He has said all the things he "will" do. But name one single political accomplishment he has made (i.e., something he has changed, not just talked about)?

“When you have Scarborough and Hewitt praising Trump you know there’s a problem.”

Yeah, the problem is that they are more conservative than those at Faux.

He’s the party’s and the people’s frontrunner and deserves to be treated with some respect. He’s been fighting both parties and the media since he announced.

I watched it this morning. Trump once again proves he can dismiss the Fox Network handily and now will do his own but better than that. Trump will raise money for wounded vets and warriors. Something he's suggested prior to all these networks hosting the debates. Trump doesn't need to debate their bias against him,it's been done already.

This election is a referendum on obama and stopping hillary from continuing to give our country away. Trump loves America and the people know it’s our last chance to save her. This time it’s about winning not nitpicking conservative points. The republicans just funded planned Parenthood for God’s sakes. How much worse can he be?

Are you really this silly?

Name one law Cruz has had signed into law since the campaign began. And he’s actually in congress.

Trump has shown the media they are not in charge. That is huge!

He has shown that OC is not what people want.

He has shown that being invaded is not what people want.

He has tapped into middle America like no politician doing nothing but talking has.

“So you had no problem with Beck saying the Tea Party was racist if they supported Newt in the 2012 election?”

I don’t remember that, but I would have had a problem with it.

Maybe I did hear it at the time because I am not a Beck fan and have gained a poor opinion of him. Comments like that probably contributed, but I don’t specifically remember.

I do, though, appreciate and recognize what he and Sarah Palin did in 2010. It was awesome and very important.

That’s why I don’t like seeing Trump break up the coalition.

As far as Beck, I sometimes try to listen to his radio show, but I can never tell what they are talking about, nor do I know which one is Beck. It’s just a bunch of guys blabbing, rather randomly with no coherence who all sound the same.

Thank you. The actual definition of a debate. Nobody seems to get it.

A debate is not the forum for that. A debate should be about substantive issues that all the candidates address.

Trump has just established that rule for the media.

They will obey it from this point forward.

You don’t want a debate. You want the candidates you don’t like tied down and waterboarded.

Every one of the verbs in your post is “shown.” Not “done.”

So, basically, he’s promised lots of things once he gets elected. Now “show” me any evidence that he will go through with any of it.

BTW, speaking of silly, the president “signs into law” in our system of government. Jeff Sessions himself credits Cruz with stopping the Gang of 8 Bill. That is a real accomplishment.

I posted a link about Beck saying the Tea Party was racist and Trump did not break up the coalition of Sarah and Beck.

Beck managed to do that all on his own.

I’m talking about the whole coalition. Us.

Turning against each other.
