Trump latest to declare he may not participate in Trump debate

Trump might scrub his GOP presidential debate

WASHINGTON (AP) — Business mogul Donald Trump said Friday he might scrub a presidential debate that so far has drawn only Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum.

Trump, the reality television star who has not ruled out an independent White House bid, had hoped for all of the Republican candidates to join in a debate he would moderate Dec. 27 in Iowa..."I have to look into it," Trump told Fox Business Network when asked whether he would host a two-candidate debate.

Trump was most indignant about Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann skipping out.

"She came up to see me four times. She would call me and ask me for advice," Trump said. "She said if she wins, she would like to think about me for the vice presidency. Most importantly, I did a two-hour phone call for her with her people. ... And after all that, she announced she was not going to do the debate. It's called loyalty. How do you do that? It's amazing to me."

1. 'it's called loyalty'--don't worry Trump, you had little chance of being Bachmann's VP
since she has little chance of actually getting the nomination.

5. Bachmann/Trump - not sure if that or Cain/Trump would have been the most
delusional, ill informed ticket possible.

7. He may be lying about Bachmann also. He lied about Huntsman
calling his office, Huntsman nor his people ever called Trump. I'm no Bachmann fan but she stated from the start that she was concentrating on Iowa. She had stated she'd like to attend but there were schedule conflicts.

8. +1. How much longer will the M$M subject us to this megalomaniac?
This is the guy who thinks the leader of the free world should call him? You'd think by now that the media would just ignore this buffoon, and realize that everything "The Donald" does is to promote "The Donald".

9. That thing he wears on his head isn't going either.
The weasel escaped in the middle of the night and now Trump is naked without it.

20. "The Donald" makes a total ass out of himself - again.
The media needs to stop giving this moron attention. He's an obvious media whore and cares about nothing other than promoting himself.

21. "I didn't know he had the ability to lay on hands and anoint people," said Rep. Ron Paul of Texas
:rofl:

Gotta hand it to Ron Paul. He gets off some good one liners every now and then.

27. 4 times? One was 2 hours? VP for DT?
Trump is pissed because she got free consulting. And his political expertise is far above anyone else. Yeah right Donny boy!!! He figures between all the calls, it was worth about 600K (I'm guessing here). So now she owes him and he's having a hissy fit about it. Let's face it Donald, no one want to talk to you. And no one supports you. Go ahead and run independent. That should help Obama.
