Trump, who has clashed with Fox News throughout his campaign, told the network in an interview on Wednesday he would not appear at the event, scheduled for Monday, because he thought the Republicans had "had enough debates." Ohio Governor John Kasich said afterward he would also skip the debate unless Trump changed his mind and decided to come. U.S. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, the third remaining Republican candidate seeking the party's nomination for the Nov. 8 presidential election, criticized Trump on Twitter, calling him #DuckingDonald and urging his supporters to tell Trump to attend. "He's scared to debate," Cruz said in an interview on Fox News. "He's afraid of being challenged." Fox News, part of the Twenty-First Century Fox Inc (FOXA.O) broadcast media and entertainment company controlled by Rupert Murdoch, earlier this week announced the debate, to be held in Salt Lake City, its latest in the primary season. Utah holds its presidential primary next Tuesday. "Ted Cruz has expressed a willingness to debate Trump or Kasich - or both. But obviously, there needs to be more than one participant," Fox News Channel’s executive vice president of news, Michael Clemente, said in a statement. "So the Salt Lake City debate is canceled." After the cancellation, Trump posted on Twitter that he would make a "big speech" the night of the debate, "but I wish everyone well."

The upside is that if Trump attends they make millions off the advertising, Megyn Kelly gets to attack Trump again, and the other candidates get to comment on the size of Trump's hands. Or shoes. Or whatever. The other upside is if Trump doesn't attend, they get to call him a coward. Win- win. misterwhite  posted on  2016-03-18   9:08:45 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #55.

In Carter's era, the Soviet's invaded Afghanistan, and thereby began their trajectory into the dustbin of history. Carter's presidency also ushered in the trajectory of America into the dustbin of history. Carter got the Egyptians and Israelis to sign a formal peace agreement. No other President has achieved that. Big Whoop! I wouldn't care if they wiped each other out. I am an AMERICAN,not a globalist. My prime concern is for America. If Israel is that important to you,you need to move your ass to Israel. Hmmmm,you are obviously a big fan of the Dummy from Plains,and are also a big fan of the Dummy from NYC.

To: misterwhite (#63) We promised Egypt foreign aid equal to two-thirds of whatever we gave to Israel. I bet even I could successfully "negotiate" a treaty like that. It established and kept the peace. Egypt was the only Muslim country that had the population and power to actually defeat Israel - they nearly did it in 1973 - AND they had been a Soviet client. With the Camp David accords, Carter managed to remove the only true existential threat to Israel AND pluck the most important Soviet client card in the Middle East out of their hands. It was a pretty good move. Republicans are blinded with hatred towards Democrats, and blind to their own faults and errors.

To: Vicomte13 (#46) FDR took over a country that was sunk in an economic depression and disarmed in the face of rising threats. He armed the country, thereby bringing the country out of the Depression, fought a world war, and won it. FDR's economic policies were a disaster, the record is perfectly clear on that. The only thing that turned that around was the war. FYI FDR campaigned at least twice (his 3rd AND 4th terms) promising We The People that he would not get into "that war in Europe" while all the time doing the opposite of what he promised. He lied, over and over again. But it seems that you are one of those the ends justify the means type, aka a DRat. потому что Бог хочет это тот путь SOSO  posted on  2016-03-18   12:11:43 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #71.

And the evidence is perfectly clear that Trump lied about why he is not participating in the debate. You had to go deeper up you ass to claim that there was no downside risk for Fox in announcing the debate without having an indication that all three of the candidates will attend. This was an especially risky thing to do for Fox since Trump already reneged on his commitment to participate in an earlier Fox debate. The facts are all before you but you continue to sell out your intellect for your ideology.

He inherited a disaster inflicted by Republican Administrations - a familiar theme, and he stabilized the situation and gave the country hope. FDR didn't drag us into the war. The Japanese bombed us, remember?

I voted for McCain (really, I voted for Sarah), and I voted for Romney. I held my nose and voted for Romney, because he was obviously a fraud, but I still considered him better than an avowed babykiller. At least Romney felt the need to lie about his real position.
