Aloha - I want to meet the kind of immigrants you know. My entire experience with immigrants are the illegal alien or H1B.

Yes, the ones we let in to take the jobs "Americans wont do" or people are "too cheap to automate" and people doing the jobs "Americans are too dumb to do"...

Well their time in the sun is over, Bend over, Trump and Nationalism is here at last.

Megan Kelly made The Donald WET HIS PANTS - so much so that The Donald won't be at the debate on Thursday night.

When you're leading the polls you can do as you please.

Jeb Bush is no good BUT he is better than any commie (D).

Yeah, I don't think Trump's decision had anything to do with Kelly. He's getting 24/7 media coverage and he doesn't have to go thru the brain damage of a debate. Could be a brilliant move. Now he can do something he wants to do without the other candidates present...like hug puppies...and he doesn't have to share the spotlight with anyone. He'll get all the coverage he could ever want.

What's that saying? There's no such thing as Bad Publicity

He's hosting an event same time as the debate. Watch it get better ratings/viewers.

True

BG - You make a good point there.

The Republican debates have become must-see television, in part because of the allure of Trump’s star power and unpredictable candidacy. But he said Tuesday that he thinks Fox and other television networks have been taking advantage of him by selling advertisements for their debates at a high premium.

No doubt Fox is trying to capitalize any way they can.

Trump long has objected to the participation of Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly as one of the three moderators, claiming she has treated him unfairly with both her questioning of him at last August’s debate and her commentary since then.

I don't like the way Megyn treated Trump either, but Trump shouldn't bail out, he should face that bitch down.

“Fox is playing games,” Trump said. “They can’t toy with me like they toy with everybody else. Let them have the debate. Let’s see how they do with the ratings.”

Trump is right about this.

I'm no fan of Fox; they're just a little less leftist than the others. I like the way Trump handles all the media.

No matter what comes of the debate, it'll be "...but what about Trump?"
