I agree with Donald Trump’s decision to bow out of the Fox News debate [“Trump’s latest target: Fox anchor,” News, Jan. 26].
I agree with his assessment of Fox moderator Megyn Kelly. She has an ego as big as he does!
Secondly, what’s another debate going to do for any of the candidates? We all know by now the true character of each candidate and where he or she stands on the issues.
His decision to bow out doesn’t make him a poor sport, as some said, but rather it shows he’s not afraid to make tough decisions, albeit, perhaps risky ones.
The bottom line is, if we keep electing establishment politicians, we will keep getting the same results.
