Pot, meet kettle.
Refusing to face a few (what he perceives will be) hard questions makes him seem like a weak crybaby. I wish he would just take his ball and go home.
Not really. It is a demonstration that Trump does not need MSM-contrived exposure or intermediation.
Willingly walking into a hostile venue,
as the GOP candidates have done for decades, makes little sense if you can manage to get your message out
and drown the other guys' message without showing up into the jimmy-kicking zone. Drowning their message by the controversy itself sucking up all the MSM oxygen...and drowning their message by not providing them with millions of new viewers.
[Think about it: some of those new & curious viewers Trump brought to the debates saw
another candidate and liked what they saw. I think Cruz benefited most from this.]
Hopefully the fallout from this transcends Trump and blazes the path for future right/con candidates who will not get a fair shake from the MSM.
Besides, it is hi-freaking-larious to see folk who generally would holler "Heck yeah!" [fist pump] to a Republican growing a spine and telling the MSM operatives-with-bylines to go pound sand...call Trump a crybaby for telling the MSM operatives-with-bylines to go pound sand.
