Fox News hosts appear to be trying their best to sell the first presidential GOP debate to frontrunner Donald Trump, who has suggested he'll skip the event given his significant polling advantage and less-than amicable relationship with the network of late.

“Thinking of the big debate coming up, and I’m not saying this to sell the debate, it’s a great debate and would be great if the president and all the candidates could make it, but if you’re Donald Trump and this is all everyone is talking about and you own all the oxygen in the room, wouldn’t you want to be in that room?” Fox News host Neil Cavuto said during his 4 p.m. show, “Your World” on Thursday.
