Trump threatens to pull out of next debate.

[MoonRiver]

Doesn't want it to be more than 2 hours. What a whiny little brat. Can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen.

[Wellstone ruled]

1. As forcasted by many,just

greasing the skids for his exit. This fake is not viable only to the really Stupid.

[MoonRiver]

3. So it was all just a big publicity stunt?

Too funny!

[ProfessorGAC]

14. I Think The Opposite

He's letting the tail trying to wag the dog. The rest of them will self-immolate and he'll be there only hope.

He's got no reason to leave. He really thinks he'd be a great president.

[Tarheel_Dem]

2. I'm sorry, but I have to agree with the clown about the length of these debates. Political junkies

love it, cuz they live & breathe politics, but for the Average Joe & Jane, more than two hours is a bit much. That being said, we all know Jeb will wind up being the nominee, despite his miserable standing in the polls.

[MoonRiver]

5. I barely made it through the Dem debate, and I really wanted to watch that one.

Hubby wanted to keep watching the commentaries, but I pulled the plug at 11:30, waaaay past my usual bedtime.

[Tarheel_Dem]

12. The commentaries continue well into the night. Like I said, only hardcore junkies can keep up with

that pace. I'm not hardcore enough.

4. Just looking for his face saving.....

exit strategy.

6. No tRump? No TaliBen? What IS a boy to do?

7. He's afraid the questions will be like they were for the Dems...Scared..n/t

[moondust]

16. ^^^maybe this^^^

The next Republican debate may actually have to cover some stuff of substance just so they don't look ridiculous compared to the Democrats. Substance is not exactly TheRump's specialty.

[DawgHouse]

17. This is what I think too.

[Glimmer of Hope]

20. Carson can't discuss substantive issues either so he is going on a book tour.

[Omaha Steve]

8. So he wants to do everybody a favor and not show up?

[Turbineguy]

9. Tauro defecatum interuptus.

My Latin's a little rusty.

[KamaAina]

13. A fake NY Times story at the end of Bonfire of the Vanities

referred to "a common tauro-scatological expletive".

[2naSalit]

10. He's a waste of

good air that should be put to use by endangered species... among other things that are truly wastful of resources.

[greytdemocrat]

11. I agree with him. n/t

[DFW]

15. WHAT??? NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Please, Donald. Stay in. America needs to know the true face of the Republican Party. People like Kasich hide it. People like you, Carson, Huckaboo, along with the late, lamented Rick Perry and Rick Santorum show it in all its glory (there could conceivably be a better term).

PLEASE stay in there.

Pretty please?

18. I do not know whether the conditions announced by CNBC are good or not (generally, networks are more

interested by their ratings than by informing people), but, if CNBC holds firm, I will be impressed. I am doubtful it will be the case, though.

[trueblue2007]

19. GOOD.
