THE KELLY FILE for July 27, 2015
Kelly File, The [Fox News] (USA) - July 27, 2015
EXCERPTS
Joining me now, FOX News digital politics editor Chris Stirewalt who is intimately involved in the debate process, as I can attest firsthand working with you at length and already today, we had a lengthy meeting doing one of the most important things you can do in the presidential process which is to come up with questions for these guys and potentially gal, who will stand on this stage this time in ten days.
(snip)
STIREWALT: I gleaned that Donald Trump says a lot of stuff. I gleaned that Donald Trump when he talks about the border, when he talks about all the stuff. When they get on that debate stage, it’s going to be very hard. You can’t fact check it, you can’t do it in real time.
KELLY: Uh-mm.
STIREWALT: Because he makes these claims, like I have journalists call me and say that they’re sorry and that they were wrong. Which journalists? Who? When? Where? Who is this?
KELLY: Uh-mm.
STIREWALT: And he just keeps moving through. He rolls like a free train. And the question is, for him, in a debate, in a one-minute increment of time, with you pressing him, with Bret pressing him, with Chris pressing him, is he going to be able to just bulldoze through or is he going to have to fill in the blanks?
KELLY: My own impression is, if you dodge and weave enough, the viewers will hold it against you. The anchors — the viewers need to understand the debate we have far less opportunity than, say, here on THE KELLY FILE to interrupt the candidate and make them answer the questions we ask, but there are rules that govern this debate. But we’re going to try. And if you continue to dodge, they know, they know when you dodge. So, my advice to these candidates is, don’t make me hurt you.
“KELLY: ...So, my advice to these candidates is, don’t make me hurt you.”
Wow. That creature really DOES have an inflated sense of her own importance, doesn’t she?
Than God someone called him out on this nonsense. Trust Fund Donnie does this all the time: "People come up to me all the time and say they agree with me.....I had a friend who was going to have an abortion but changed her mind and now the kid is a superstar!."
Never any names. Never any details. Just his spouting. Do even his ardent followers believe this crap?
I know being a cultist requires faith... but being a Trumpist pretty much means you have to be Steve Winwood, Eric Clapton, Ginger Baker, or Ric Grech.

I cannot think of a single statement by a journalist that shows more gall than this. If you can Maggie, I'd like to see it.
