Asked about Ted Cruz's call for a one-on-one debate before Monday's caucuses in Iowa, Lewandowski said the Texas senator's campaign was not the only one to reach out asking if they could participate in the Trump campaign's event

I await Cruz's response. Does not pass the smell test. Cruz is going to the Fox debate, keeping his word.

Trump has reneged on a deal he made.

You should all take the time to read this analysis of what is happening from Dilbert’s creator, Scott Adams:

Oh good for Ted!

Go, Ted, go crawl to the media like a good dog and bark at their command.

All true conservatives support subordination!

How so? He promised to support the eventual GOP candidate but didn’t hear him pledging to attend every debate.

I think this is a good move on Trump’s part. It shows toughness. No one can push him around and the world better know that. Something our present leader lacks.

Ronald Reagan refused to participate in the 1980 Iowa Republican debate, saying he thought it was wrong for Republicans to attack each other.

Can you explain how boycotting a FOX ambush is “running away?” They need him more than he needs them. I won’t be watching if TRUMP is not there.

Cruz said he wanted to debate trump one on one live on Mark Levins show. I thought the candidates were contractually bound to not attend debates outside of the party sanctioned ones?

Speaking of smell tests, isn't it against the rules to have 1 on 1 debates like Cruz is calling for? Wouldn't Cruz know that before he even asked? But let's just assume that it isn't against the rules and Trump answers Ted's challenge by offering to debate him during the time he was supposed to be at the Fox News debate. What does Ted do then? Now that would be a scenario that would make media heads explode.

Personally I would support either candidate if they got the nomination. This is just pre election entertainment.

Fox reneged on their integrity. He saw an ambush and blew it up. Nobody should go to that debate. This is what the District of Corruption is all about. Who do you think is next after Trump?

This debate was not part of the deal. It was set up last minute as a “killshot”

“Trump has reneged on a deal he made.”

Deal?

Nobody promised to attend the debates.

I suppose you think Reagan should’ve stayed in the talks with Soviets the time he walked, thereby letting them win.
