[ So Ailes himself is the author of the stupid press release. ]

It’s no wonder Trump isn’t taking calls from him, and only from Murdoch himself.

[unlike the “debate” tomorrow night on which I will pass in favor with dinner out with some good friends (who incidentally are Black and Trump supporters) ]

Be sure to turn on your TV and tune it to CNN tomorrow night before you go out so you can add to the ratings!

You’re probably right about that. :)

Trump plays the best game on the field. No question.

I prefer the second-best, Cruz, because he is ideologically conservative.

But I’ve got to hand it to Trump. He owns strategy. I just wish he were a stable reliable conservative.

What you’ve said is exactly my thoughts also. Cruz is smart, but I wish he and other true conservatives would learn from what is happening. One doesn’t have to betray who they really are but for crying out loud learn to adapt and modify The Donald’s tactics for future campaigns. Donald has invented a tool to fight the media and establishment — improvise and improve on it, magnify it, make it better. Someone invents something new — make it even 10 times better and run with it.

I agree. The biggest cheer I gave for Cruz was when he took on the CNBC debate moderators. But since then, I haven't seen him standoff against the media once. Admittedly, I may have missed it. I wish he would have kept his foot on the gas.

To me, taking on the corrupt media scumbags should be high on the priority list. I respected Cruz when he called them out, and I'll respect anybody on our side who takes them on.

The difference between Trump, and all the rest, is that THEY aren’t playing with their own money! They are beholden to powerful deep pockets entities for their campaigning dollars. They have to figuratively “walk on eggshells” to avoid alienating any of their donors.

Trump, OTOH, is free to run his own campaign, beholden to nobody but God, for the air he breathes. He can stick to principle and self respect. So when it became apparent on Tuesday that, not only was Fox going to shove Muggin Kelly in his face on debate night; The word was out that they were bringing in 3 hired political assassins to take him out; A raghead, a latino and an Afro; Trump notified Faux that he was declining their invitation.

Don’t look for anything even close to Trump’s actions out of any of the others; not even Cruz, my second choice. They are politicians, one and all. And when the chips are really down, and things really get heated; 99.44% of politicians will automatically default to CYA Mode.

Are you honestly that daft? Or is your hatred so deep that you can’t see clearly?

I guess you only read the stories you agree with and disregard the rest. You must have missed the weekend hate fest Megyn just put on, but hey, I’m SURE she would remain neutral, is that what you’re saying?!

Stay in the bubble Saint, someone will come along and free you from the lying media some day.

Just can’t believe anyone would defend ANY media, they all have an agenda, they are ALL dishonest. Surely you learned that somewhere along the way.
