Oh that’ll be riveting.

Omg - are his 15 mins over yet?

Actually, Fox is a kitten compared to The Mark Levin Show.

😳

Waste of time that could be spent appealing to Independents.

fox groveling.

Good for him , instead of only 'home' games on cnn and ms13nbc. He has a 'away' game on Foxnews. While the other Democrats dont have the guts.

Working with these hacks to stop progressives.

Maybe they will ask him about his horrible record with black and poor ppl.

Why not go on the top-rated news station? Smart move. No one would see it if it was on CNN

When will he hold a Town Hall in Brunei ?

What do you have to negotiate? Questions to be asked? Do you get questions before hand? That’s not a town hall meeting it’s a controlled safe question and answer session

🤣Dems are beginning to see that Bernie got my viewers on FOX for his townhall meeting than any of them got on CNN. More exposure.

Real fox debate or like his idea of Medicare for all he will have an option to purchase but not for everyone sooooo wait that's confusing.

Buttigieg, is he a fascist? Pete loves to attack a great person our VP Mike Pence based on false info and hatred for Christianity. His life style is not my choice but I do not attack him.

Dems are taking the fight to the Presidents house fake Fox News

That's the difference between a crazed Democratic Socialist and an educated Liberal...

Must have been because of James Murdoch's contribution to his campaign.

Smart move, if someone can't walk out of FOX with their head held high, they would never stand up for a Trump lashing.

This is great. More Dem candidates should follow suit.

Golly Pete- why demean and soil yourself? Fox “News?” Maybe you oughta rethink that one.

How long before your fellow dems start releasing the dirt on you, I guess you might want to enjoy this week, because anonymous reporting says next week will be the week of mayor pete scandal

PeteButtigieg Just fair warning....if you do a televised Townhall with FoxNews you will lose my support, and a lot of support you have so far enjoyed in our Democratic Party. They are the enemy along with realDonaldTrump

Do it. Please, do it. Show those morons that there is nothing to be afraid of.

Will he bring along his husband and the baby they want to use as a campaign prop?

Why? To appeal to their voters? Hate to tell you Pete but they will not support you no matter what you say.

Good for him ....👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

everyone is bailing on the dirty left wing media

It’s the gay beto

He has already done a morning show there.He is the first of all the democratic candidates

Good for him, CNN is a dead network.

This guy should be selling ladies garments!

Pete talk to some people of color

Lol i fine is childishly amusing his name has Butt in it.

They will be extremely nice and overly sensitive to him. Lions den would be having a Democrat Presidential debate on Fox but Perez is far to scared to let that happen, someone might be asked a difficult question. Fox will pitch underhand to Buttigieg at a town hall.

This will surely piss Captain adderall off!

They got Sanders to admit he benefitted from the Trump tax cut and that his so-called free health care means everyone’s taxes will go through the roof. This guy will be destroyed

Electoral College will come up that you want to do away with so states like 'INDIANA' your state will not have a vote They don't understand this, Democrats will kill their own just to have Control. VOTERS WAKE UP!

*fakenewscnn goes into high gear trying to defeat journalism...* wait...what did I say but..but..that's what they do... & we're supposed to believe your BS?

Dems are finally manning up, leaving their comfort zone. If ElizabethWarren , JoeBiden and Bernie2020 would be kind enough to EXIT and let the leaders of tomorrow battle it out, and/or offer themselves as running mates, like mentors. .... That would be swell, as well!

Every Democrat candidate should go on Fox News...... They need to tell the truth to ppl who only listen to Fox news. It may not change viewers minds but at least they tried.

Nobody likes FOX and boycotts them till they find out they have the highest rated news show and nobody watches CNN

Detect a shift away from lying Donald Trump from Fox, he shouldn’t have a propaganda TV Network

I guess foxnews is for anyone as long as it isn't Trump. Guess they think they have what it takes to pick up the pieces after they take a ride on the back of the alligator.

He should get Illan Omar to be his Running Mate! Yeah! That's The Ticket!!

Oh shit !!! Does that sting just little? Fox News rating are going up, they’re getting all these town halls, and now you’re reporting on the town halls you’re not getting?

Brilliant. Need more of this.

Bad idea

That should go well

Let's hope he wins on 2020.

Tell 'Sneaky Pete' to release the tapes...

goonna bring his husband and show us how they plan to have a child?

Good the truth about the electoral College will come up that you want to do away with so states like 'INDIANA' your state will not have a vote. This guy has a snowballs chance in AOC's global warming of being president.

Good job Pete 👏

Fox News must be on survival mode for some reason - NO MATTER WHAT they come up with to save their A$$es, they will forever be doomed and cemented in Trump Shi%

Ambitious candidates want to test themselves for bigger crowd.

Bernie Sanders gets support for 'Medicare for All' proposal from Fox News audienceThe Vermont senator gets a surprising response from the conservative network's viewers. Bernie Sanders got so much botox. It's making him look worse. Of course everybody wants Medicare for all. The question is and always will be how do you pay for it. Greater minds than Bernie have failed to come up with a solution. If you expect Bernie to solve it, than you might be interested in a bridge I have for sale.
