Trump Proposes Insane Ransom for Showing up at CNN Debate, but There’s a Good Reason for It

The front-running GOP presidential candidate, who often has crowds laughing during his rallies, threatened to change his jokey style because it results in him being misrepresented — both in the press and in attack ads from his opponents.

“They take two second snippets,” he exclaimed before settling back into his usual style, comedy included.

But that’s not the only threat Trump levied. In a chilly arena that was transformed from an ice rink into an event space by laying down plastic tiles to cover the rink floor, the businessman put a price on his participation at the coming CNN Republican debate: $5 million.

“How about I tell CNN, who doesn’t treat me properly … I’m not gonna do the next debate, okay?” The demand garnered tepid applause from the crowd.

Trump zeroed in more on his idea: “I won’t do the debate unless they pay me $5 million, all of which goes to Wounded Warriors or goes to vets.” (Read more from “Trump Proposes Insane Ransom for Showing up at CNN Debate, but There’s a Good Reason for It” HERE)
