Trump *was* treated unfairly
 
A debate amongst Republican presidential wannabees should focus on public issues, not
personal background. The questions asked of Trump should have been part of a
one-on-one interview. None of the other candidates were asked only personal
questions.

Had to get my comment in before reading the stuff which has been accumulating here
over the past three days.

When a guy is running on his business record, his bankruptcies should
be fair game.

Absolutely - in a one-on-one interview. None of the other contenders were asked
questions about their finances. I wanted to know how Rubio paid off $100,000 in
student loans in four years.

However, Trumps latest 'blood' comments about Kelly have cost him any respect I still
had for the guy. Now he's right down there with Krause in the respect department.

I am not as concerned about businesses owned by Trump that declared
bankruptcy. He claims to own about 500 companies, only four of those
filed for bankruptcy. I believe at least two of them were "arranged"
bankruptcies, meaning he bought distressed companies, put them in
bankruptcy to mitigate liabilities and then re-incorporated them.
That's common in the business world. Hell, even the US government did
it with General Motors.

A financial/business background is all that Trump has, so asking
questions about it seems pertinent. As POTUS he would have financial and
executive responsibilities.

Others (the professional politicians) were asked about past positions on
political issues or actions while they held office. Well, except Doc
Carson. I guess Kelly and crew couldn't come up with any questions
about brain surgery.

I haven't paid much attention to anything the media has reported since
the debate. I have enough on my hands discussing it with Mrs.E.

Perhaps questions about his plans for the economy? There are all kinds of pertinent
questions one with his background could have been asked. The name of the game was
'Get Trump'. I think it reflected very poorly on FOX.
