This Is How TSF Intimidates The ABC Debate Moderators

This is his quote ;

"I’m going into very hostile territory shortly on a debate with ABC, George Slopodopoulos [sic] and that group. And ABC, I think, is the worst of everybody. I think they’re the worst, they’re the nastiest. They’re as bad as you can be," he said. "They’re worse than NBC, which is saying a lot."

He is trying to bully them, he games the system.

George always wants access to politicians so he is always Mr. Middle.

but I think it's more about lowering the expectations of his cultists for his performance.

Hell, them ABC fellers had it in for him all along. No wonder he looked like dog shit and sounded a loon.

3. David Muir is very experienced and most highly regarded nightly news anchor now. He is also gay.

Linsey Davis, I have only seen on weekend news, but she is apparently quite experienced as well. She is also a black woman (mixed race).

So, given the above, I'd suggest TSF's handlers smack down any plans he as to pull his usual biogted, misogynistic, and homophobic attempts to intimidate.

5. And, so far, they've all been dumb enough to fall for it and bend over backward to prove him wrong.

quaking in terror.
this is just more - and typical - Trump twaddle. I'm sure it is getting about as much attention - as is approximately due ...

whether it's elections or debates ... Djt needs to pre-plant a 'reason' he loses: 'it was rigged, the moderators are biased, the opponent was told the questions prior to the debate'.

He sounds like a 5-year old constantly calling people names (George Slopodopoulos). How can anyone think this guy is mentally fit to even dress himself?

the very idea that someone could vote for a guy who name-calls like that - it is deeply disturbing

...the other creature is a tapeworm - he sucks the life out of whatever or or whoever he attaches himself to.

If I say childish or infantile, I feel like I'm disparaging kids and babies.

it's worked SO FAR, on the gullible, cowardly and easily manipulate MSM, so why stop?

He's pulled that sht at one time or another on just about every news outlet he's noticed, including FUX.

Calls the news media enemy of the people - then USES them at every opportunity.

Plays em like a country fiddle.
