I didn’t even see this event, but I saw her “performance” in the debate, and I believe you completely. She is an evil beitch.
It’s not necessary to deport the children. Deport the parents, and the parents get to choose if the children go with them.
I think all Republican candidates should have long ago stopped playing these games with these reporters who are just trying to make a name for themselves.
Kelly only thinks about Trump 24/7.
Its a liberals question for sure.
Well, I have a slightly different take on Cruz .. and I didn’t see the interview tonight.
I think Ted is taken aback by Kelly’s about-face regarding the conservatives. I say that because in the beginning, before Donald got into the race, she had him on her show many times, and she’s always treated him quite nicely.
Now, all of a sudden she’s coming across as an attack-dog type of interviewer .. and I think it has some people really confused by the change.
I’m not concerned about Ted. He’s drawing larger and larger crowds all the time; proving to me that he’s gaining ground and support. His recent summit regarding religious liberty was extremely good - I was shocked to see it on C-SPAN - and they didn’t cut away even during the prayers.
“My question: Is it me or did Miz Kelly come off (and look like) as a snotty b***h towards Ted Cruz?”
That’s because she’s IS a snotty bitch!
Wrong. You people don’t understand Megyn Kelly. She asks the toughest question possible of any person she’s interviewing. In the next segment she asked Christie why should illegals get to sneak over the border and have a baby who gets instant citizenship.
Too many of you Kelly-bashers don’t understand what a journalist is. They’re not supposed to be there to be a propagandist for your side.
Cruz dodged the question. She knocked him back a bit. Fair or not fair, he could have answered more clearly. She didn’t ask him about his personal life, she posed an hypothetical about a very real issue.
Yes she was snarky. But he looked like he took a jab to the chin.
I’d vote for him in a heartbeat. I just wish he’d answered more directly one way or the other.
Cause it might explain the inexplicable. Why is she acting like this. Why is Hume. Bair too. It makes no intellectual sense. Kraut I get. Will too. These three... they don’t make sense. I heard the rumor, and well that made sense. I am a person of logic.
Hume gets her the time slot. Rupert gets marching orders. Bair is a pup by Humes side. Kelly thinks she is invincible because dear Hume and Rodge will protect her. That other guy, well his dad was good and because of that he has a show. A win win for all. Except it was not. The whole lot of them got Trumped.
I don’t need to draw a chart of how I see that being reasonable do I?
great post! I agree with your assessment completely.
My disgust is that he was on her “show” to begin with.....any serious candidate needs to ignore and shun the creature.
She doesn’t “attack” anyone, she challenges them. How can she challenge a conservative by not presenting them with the opposite, liberal point-of-view?
I’ve seen similar attitudes from people on Facebook.
The fact is there is no way Cruz could have answered the questions the way Megyn framed them. He was exactly right to pleasantly go back to a solid plan for dealing with illegal immigrants.
Megyn actually expected him to deal with a sad little scenario in which she pictured two innocent but illegal parents with two anchor babies. Was mean old Cruz going to send the illegal parents back without their babies? Or was he gonna send the whole family back even though two are American citizens.
She did not want a sensible answer and this was obvious to Cruz, so he pleasantly kept to his theory about how to handle the big picture of illegal immigration.
It was a “gotcha” question to stir up contrived controversy between Cruz and Trump. If she truly wanted to know his stance on deporting illegals, then ask him! Don’t bring up what Billy O asked Trump! Or, what Trump said! Cruz knew exactly what she was doing. He even said she was acting like the liberal media and Obammy. Good for him for not playing her inane game.
It’s possible to question Cruz using conservative arguments, not just liberal arguments, which a few here seem to think is the only way to question a conservative.
Don’t you think a journalist needs to publish something to earn that moniker? What has Kelly ever written?
