Trump to Boycott Fox Debate

ETcallhome said:
ha,ha, you are no better than the media who needs to hear logic and specific programs. Trumps ideas are not logical and can't be spoken. He already has controlled the message. Everybody now only talks about what he talks about. Now it's time to control the media. And that is what we want. We're tired of the media deciding who should be treated Presidential. Listening to critics of Trump is like listenening to atheists discuss the Bible. The "Wall" isn't a physical wall. China is not a real country. Muslims are not real people. For him to subject himself to a media that is lost in the past is purposeless. The more serious they take Trump the sillier they look. They just can't comprehend republicans are not serious. "How come when a democrat promises pie in the sky you always ask how much it will cost? And when The Donald makes unrealistic promises you just agree that it should be done?" They just don't get it.

Apologia?
 
compare Trumps Wall with the parting of the Red Sea in the Bible and I think you will find many similarites. It means one thing when you are a child hearing it for the first time, and something else when you start understanding the language.

no, it's simply a code word for let's stop talking and fix the illegal alien problem and I'm just the guy that can actually do it even though they have been talking about it for decades.

The only two people on earth who still don't want a wall are me and Gary Johnson, but in my mind, even a free border could have a beautiful wall.

That statement was issued before Trump withdrew from the debate. Trump toyed with the idea of not participating in the debate because Megan Kelly has repeatedly likened Trump as a sexist, woman hater. THEN, FOX released that statement, which openly mocked him. THEN Trump read that statement and withdrew. That's totally understandable, considering the circumstances. Each politician is looking for a fair shot at presenting themselves and their agenda to the voting public. While the network hosting the debate openly mocks and ridicules a candidate prior to the debate. What are the chances of that candidate enjoying 'fair and balanced' exposure by that network?

Not sure why you think Trump controls the stage and production? He doesn't control the stage or production of any of his interviews. Print or TV? This is the first debate he boycotted. Who cares. Everyone knows where he stands by now. Polling 40% on Reuters and CNN/ORC.

Polling 40% is great and fine for the candidate Trump. I'm confused how you think this will be a great thing for someone who will have to show the maturity and levelheaded behavior of someone who is going to run the top country on the planet. I get that everyone is pissed at the establishment. So am I. I get that everyone is pissed at Wall Street. No one is more angry Wall Street and demanding justice than I. No one is more anti-Fed, or against lobbying, or RINO republicans, or Congress or the current administration, or fed up with the economic bumbling of this - or previous - administrations than I. No one a more ardent 2nd amendment supporter than I.

But running the country is going to require a good plan and a lot of ability outside the ability to point at someone, or some group and say "it's their fault". It's going to require more than just tweeting snark and (semi) witty insults at people that don't get along with you or agree. It's going to require diplomacy, the ability to reach across the aisle. The desire to want to heal.

The fact that 40% of the people in the poll vote for Trump is no more comforting than the statistics that show 43% of people still approve of Obama - or that 40% of people think jersey shore is a great show. None of these statistics necessarily bode well for the future of the United States of America.
 
I will also say FOX is stupid to try to make a stand on this. THEIR reporter was the one who caused this. She's a flake.

sorry, I forgot you don't speak American, but I must confess I don't speak puncuation. In your box where you do all your thinking and posting, could you give me a hint what "?" means? If it means you don't understand, don't be ashamed. So if I am really pissed off which one do I use? ! or *?

It means just about everything you said was so convoluted and devoid of consistent thought or related to the quote you were speaking to, that I thought it wasn't English at all, but more a language designed by large consumption of Wild Turkey.
