In reply to the discussion: Scoop: Sen. Kamala Harris Will Not Appear On Fox News For A Town Hall [View all]LiberalLovinLug
(14,164 posts)One of the best decisions Sanders made was to go on a Fox townhall. Which is much different than a one on one with some interrupting sycophant host. Millions of Fox zombies that watched, and were exposed to the truth, either because the TV was simply always on Fox News, or because they wanted to watch the "socialist" go down in flames, or perhaps were genuinely interested in hearing a candidate on the other side but only on Fox News, as to them it would be in a 'fair and balanced' environment.
It says to me that they do not have confidence to answer questions from Trump supporters. That they are afraid of looking like fools. They are proving to the Republican base that they have nothing. And that point will now be hammered home by a lot of the Fox News hosts when they describe their decision.
So instead of sowing at least a few tiny seeds of truth and doubt in Trump, with a captive Trump audience. (As well as supporters who would be clapping for her), her and other Democrats look like cowards with their avoidance of speaking in the halls of the enemy.
Even if only to get kicked off the set by using her time to pontificate on how Fox News is supporting a traitor. That would be fricken awesome! I'd love one of the Democrat candidates to accept an invitation and then be removed making Fox News the ones that are intolerable. But none of that is possible now.
