Trump and Fox said to be in talks over Monday interview
CNN ^

Posted on 08/10/2015 6:59:32 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Donald Trump and the Fox News Channel are in talks about Trump possibly appearing on Fox on Monday night, according to a source with knowledge of the talks.

Trump has been lambasting Fox for days, ever since he was challenged in last week's GOP debate.

It is "highly unlikely" Trump would appear at 9 p.m. with host Megyn Kelly, the source said, and that's probably an understatement. Trump has repeatedly and personally insulted Kelly in recent days.

But talks are underway about a Trump interview with another prime time host, like Sean Hannity, the source said, adding that nothing had been confirmed as of Monday morning.

In the meantime, Fox has dramatically ratcheted down its coverage of Trump. It hasn't covered Trump's criticisms of Kelly and the two other debate moderators, Chris Wallace and Bret Baier.

Trump's most recent tweet about Fox came on Sunday afternoon: "It amazes me that other networks seem to treat me so much better than Fox News. I brought them the biggest ratings in history, and I get zip!"

This is a true clash of titans. Fox News is the favored network of Republicans, and Trump is the Republican campaign front-runner.

Wowza!

He should start out his stump appearance with Petty’s ‘I won’t back down’.

“Mr. Trump, surely you can understand why womens are upset that because you said that Kelly had blood coming out of her eyes, you obviously meant she was on her period right. You can understand that right?”

So what if he did? What’s your point?

I hear Belling is in for Bill O’ this week. It easily could be him, too. They just did a sit down a week ago for the Saturday show.

I suggest Alice Cooper’s “Only Women Bleed.”

Before the non-debate, Chris Wallace was asked about his questions. He pointed to a folder on his desk and said, "There are some doozies in there!"

Made up my mind then and there to skip the debate as it would be a certain hatchet job on everybody on stage except for Fox's "Chosen" one(s).

Moderators don't need doozies. They need to get the core beliefs of the candidates to come forth.

I actually watched the Don Lemon thing with Trump and am definitely going to watch whatever dweeb is opposite Bloody Megyn tonight in protest. They all have the same colored blood-green, coming from wherever.

MK alone lost over 200k twitter followers. I think Fox now understands the definition of the word bleed.

He said the same thing bout Chris Wallace. He said he meant “nose”. No way do I believe he was referring to her period, unless Chris Wallace was having one as well.

I would stipulate that Megyn Kelly be fired or suspended first. If not then screw you.

I think he should go on Hannity as well, or Greta. But once there do not let them linger on that stupid Megan K disaster. Simply say if asked "What we have had there was a failure to communicate". Now lets talk issues.

It would be a hoot if Clint Eastwood was to bring his CHAIR out and say have a seat Mr. Trump.

Depends on whether O’Reilly and Hannity are big enough to tell their bosses they are not going to trash Trump.

The Megyn Kelly thing seemed to overshadow the way Bret Baier actually was trying to LECTURE Trump on the first question. Idiotic and arrogant. Moderators should be neutral and stay in the background.

I wrote that and I think it was taken wrong. I was trying to convey the way the MSM asks questions. “Are you still beating your wife”.

Trump should insist on an apology by Fox first - not for him, but for all of us. We were entitled to a legitimate debate and not just a hack job.

I totally agree. Fox was way out of line and if they want to keep their ratings they better apology or they just might loose millions of Republicans. They have joined the wrong side of the war.

Trump should ask for a do-over debate with the moderators asking grownup questions.

Tough questions yes, but not BS gotcha questions about things that aren't important.
