Anddddd the further down the rabbit hole we go, lack of non-bias in media continues to rear its ugly head. Trump (who should debate) can blame realistic unfairness in coverage just like actual Fake News provides cover for his fake Fake News.
Ahhh it is to reminisce to the days when Romney was going to kill 47% percent of the US with his Baine Capital Binders full of wimin...

Realistic unfairness thats funny.. you suggest he has done nothing to garner the attention he gets
I doubt he would debate with questions taken from a Hat or a computer . He would still wave the bias flag .
The man just can't answer hard questions . Hes good at pointing fingers and lying

didn't he actually say he wouldn't care about 47% of Americans if he got elected. Think about that statement and what it means for the president to say that.

Oh he absolutely has done plenty of things to garner a sizeable amount of attention. Probably half the time it is justified. But he, like any other Republican, will not get a fair deal from the media. This is why we not have a Trump. Remember, Romney was going to be like Hitler, after the Bu#^&#^&#^&#^&ler of course, and now we have Trumphitler.

No, he said that 47% of the population were not going to vote for him no matter what because, his quote:
"There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what," Romney said in the video. "All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what."
But remember, he had binders full of women qualified to run various departments that were going to be part of his administration. But the media ran with that to cudgel him. And that he was going to steal everyone's money, make grandma homeless.

so what do you call the hugh percentage of Republicans who still to this day think Obama is a Muslim and born in Kenya w/o ever having the slightest bit of evidence? Aren't they deplorable? And didn't Hillary apologize for saying that? So there's a false equivalency between constantly using that and sitting quietly on your hands not saying anything about Trump's constant insults. Hipocracy at its finest.

I call them idiots, Paul. they’re idiots. I also don’t think it’s a HUGE percentage.

I’ll make my feelings known at the voting booth. I’m pretty sure throwing hissy fits on a fishing board’s political forum is not going to change the world.

So you call them idiots and Hillary called them by another name. What's the difference? It was like 40%. Don't you think that's a huge percentage.
So don't continue to throw hissy-fits on this site if you don't want to.

he said 47% americans would
vote for obama because they feel entitled to have the government take care of them, and they feel like
victims. it was a stupid comment. I don’t think he said he wouldn’t care about them. Romney was a good
guy, not very exciting, but not what you were told
he is either. They made a big deal
that he had resumes if i
pressure women in a notebook, for god’s sake.

Democrats can’t debate ideas anymore, all they have is personal
attacks.

"You do know whos in the White house. The king of personal attacks."
Agreed. But there's a lot more to the GOP, than Trump. I watch CNN and MSNBC all the time. You rarely hear rigorous debate about the merits of each side's ideas. All you hear, is smear.
When liberalism has the track record it has, at least in terms of the economy, that explains why liberals don't want to talk about results and empirical evidence - because the evidence makes it very clear that their ideas are bad ideas. So they create a diversion by screaming racism with every breath,
