Second Debate: Fox’s Disgusting Game of Thrones

Nobody Flashes

What we witnessed tonight in the GOP debates, was one of the most unconscionable  displays of democracy and journalism ever witnessed. It was supposed to be a “Fair and Balanced” questions from journalists…to ask the candidates their positions on the issues.

But the FOX reporters went beyond that. They were out to destroy the front-runner, Donald Trump, and they did it right from the start: They went for his jugular. They punched him on the very first question, and him alone. It was clever, a frontal attack, and a brutal one.

The first question, was not a question, it was a demand of allegiance to the GOP Party:

“Gentlemen, we know how much you love hand raising questions so we promise this is the only one tonight,” Fox News’ Bret Baier opened the debate by asking. “The only one. Is there anyone on stage—can I see hands—who is unwilling tonight to pledge your support to the eventual nominee of the Republican Party and pledge to not run an independent campaign against that person? Again, we’re looking for you to raise your hand now, raise your hand now if you won’t make that pledge tonight.”

It was a strategy they hoped would paint Donald as a traitor. But you could tell, by the look in all their eyes, that right after they did it, the whole country must have exploded on social media. Their eyes told it all.

I’ll find out if I am wrong tomorrow. They took the front-runner and symbolically tried to cut his throat.

The attack is that basically, Trump would divide the republican party and Hillary would be President….and so, don’t even listen to him tonight.

I have NEVER been so disgusted at FOX News in my life. It was bad enough when they had the utterly incompetent Jeb Bush standing next to Trump for so long so that everyone would see Jeb was taller….it was pathetic that they had to stoop so low, trying to give Jeb every opportunity to win some points. But they can’t.

What FOX news did tonight was repeatedly, try to destroy Donald Trump.

Afterwards, they did their audience survey to vilify the man for saying he would run for a third-party. It was staged. Trump to his credit, was honest, but that first blow I do believe even threw him off.

Fox tried to twist it afterwards into the audience hated Trump, but that’s not true, the audience reacted with boos to the QUESTION, to the demand that was made. Everybody heard it, but afterwards they spinned it to make everyone think it was Trump that they were booing….not them.

Bull.

The questions were always loaded with attacks, and not just on Trump, although he received the worst of it.  The Democrats don’t do this to themselves, why in the world is FOX doing it? They get around Obama and they are sooooooooooooo nice.

They will say, “Well we have to ask tough questions! ” Do they? You can ask a tough question without getting nasty, and vicious. Megyn Kelly was especially vicious.

As far as the rest of the candidates: Ted Cruz always does a great job, Huckabee was good off the cuff, Rand Paul is still angry but right. And thank god for Ben Carson who was the smartest one of the whole bunch. Ben has held life and death in his hand, and you knew, that he sort of floats above the fry.

But then, none of them are getting attack like Donald. The way they treated Ben Carson tonight— was like he was just the “token” by the GOP and the network.

They all had a few good lines….but the first debate went much smoother. I was expecting attacks, but NOT from the three FOX amigos.

Trump came back, as best he could. But this first debate showed one thing:

Fox news is “NOT” fair and balanced. It’s pure Rino/corporation propaganda. And instead of Jeb having to destroy Trump, they are going to let their reporters do it.

It was…disgusting. And Nobody Wonders if the America people were smart enough to see through FOX trying to tear Trump to pieces.

They must fear him above all others.

Really…fear him.

And guess what? On the Drudge Report, the people say Trump won the first debate. Thank God we still have Drudge. I didn’t see a clear winner simply because the FOX moderators were so atrocious.

All they really did, was piss a lot of people off.

If the American people are smart, then what they did to Trump is not only going to backfire on the GOP, but FOX News is going to lose millions of viewers. He IS in first place.

But then again, this was predictable. I just thought they’d dig up a scandal, not put their reporters reputations on the line for an election.

It was FOX that lost tonight.

That’s money. No matter what you think of Trump, that was unconscionable.

The propaganda is strong on the radio…”Trump is going to divide the party! OH NO!”

Let him. The republican party is dead, and sooner or later the American people are going to wake up to the brainwashing that has been going on for years.
