'Nolte: Donald Trump Is Wise to Skip the Fox News Debate'
Snip
'Someone who is up 41 points should not participate in a political debate.
In the RealClearPolitics poll of national GOP primary polls, former President Donald Trump is 40.9 points ahead of second place.
What's more, nationally, Trump sits well over the magic halfway mark with 55.8 percent support.
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is waaaaaayyy behind in second place with 14.9 percent support. The rest are in single digits.
Only a madman who's up 41 points would risk that lead by participating in a debate with a half-dozen other candidates who'I'm sorry, but this is true'do not matter.
We have a long, long way to go to the GOP convention. All I'm saying is that for right now, Trump appearing at the Fox News debate would be a dumb move. There's no upside for him, and the upside is all that matters in a political campaign.'
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/08/21/nolt...Methinks if Trump were to show up for the FOX debate, it would be nothing more than a pile on from the other candidates and Trump defending himself.
All the candidates would end up looking bad.
With the Tucker Carlson/Trump interview, the spotlight will be on Trump and no one else.
Trump will easily get his messages across without interruption.
