Trump reignites Megyn Kelly feud with 'bimbo' tweet
The Hill ^ | 8/24/15 | N.Zimmerman

Posted on 08/24/2015 8:17:26 PM PDT by VinL

Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly returned Monday night to host The Kelly File following a 10-day vacation, but her extended R & R seemed to have no relaxing effect on her loudest critic: Donald Trump.

In a series of late-night tweets, Trump accused Kelly of being “off her game,” and suggested she “must have had a terrible vacation” because she was “afraid to confront” her guest, Dr. Cornel West, on the subject of immigration.

Trump followed up his tweets with a couple of retweets from supporters who called Kelly a “bimbo” and her show “a waste of an hour on Fox.”

“The bimbo back [sic] in town,” said one tweet, which Trump reposted into his own timeline. “I hope not for long."

The Republican front-runner’s infamous feud with Kelly -- sparked in the aftermath of the first GOP debate, which Kelly co-moderated — reached a crescendo shortly before her temporary leave of absence, when Trump made a comment appearing to reference menstruation as a reason for a line of questioning he believed was unfair.

Trump went on to suggest several times that Kelly’s vacation was ordered by higher-ups at the news station as a result of the fallout from their post-debate friction.

Fox News pushed back on those claims, saying the time off was scheduled months in advance.

Unfazed, Trump repeated his allegation tonight on Twitter.

"I liked The Kelly File much better without @megynkelly,” the businessman tweeted. "Perhaps she could take another eleven day unscheduled vacation!"

For every person on Free Republic who thinks it’s cool to call a reporter a bimbo on Twitter (these are the people e-mailing “pwnd” gifs), there are 100 people who are just embarrassed for him.

He’s not going to be President.

Real presidential...going to wear very thin eventually, but for now he gets all the 24/7 free coverage he wants.

You’ve got to wonder why the MSM is so intent on covering him, the first GOP candidate that they haven’t tried to slice and dice, or ignore as long as possible.

There are Planned Parenthood demonstrations all over the country. Maybe if Trump would talk about those for a day or two, the MSM would have to let their viewers know they happened? Or maybe he has and I just missed it.

Let’s see you produce one scintilla of data - or even a credible wild-arsed theory - to support this fantasy that Trump is “going down in flames”.

MeGYN started it, tonight, with this....

Take a look at @realDonaldTrump’s immigration proposals: pic.twitter.com/F3phEpbQ74— Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly) August 25, 2015

She meant it as a slap, but it's backfired.

“He is showing why he cannot win the election”

LMAO. He cannot win the election because of a post about Kelly on twitter?

This is nothing. He watched the show and posted a comment about it. People do the same thing here every day.

Ridicule is one of man’s best weapons. It’s been proven by how consistently the left uses it on us. It’s about time we turned it back on them.

“How Presidential. A real statesman.”

He appears to love a good fight. Somehow this does not hurt him with a “yuge” segment of the party. Probably because it is so dang refreshing to have an unfiltered voice freeing us from the PC chains. However, these are the things that may make it difficult to win over the sensitive types.

Jane, the problem with all ya’ll, is you just don’t understand today’s reality tv culture. OMG, this is sooo easy.

Sometime in January 2017, Trump is going to divorce his wife and marry Megyn. It will be HUGE! The wedding will be televised on Fox, Ted Cruz will be best man, and Hillary will be let out of prison to be Matron of Honor. It will be the new Camelot, the media will lap it up, and Trump will waltz into the presidency.

Wait for it.

-:)

I’m about the same age as her. I remember in the 80s when I would go to dance clubs, I would always think that girls who had their hair looking that lame usually weren’t very smart, in fact quite stupid because it was such a ridiculous looking style, and probably 95% of the time I was proven right. So I see her with that kind of spaghetti hairstyle, it tells me everything I need to know about her intelligence. She’s an absolute moron. Another talking ho which seems to be the only kind of women Fox news seems to promote.

Boortz is a Walker fan. I think he is seething inside right now and Glenn Beck has been making his rounds too. First on Hannity, then on Don Lemon trying to alert people to what they should know about Trump.

Trump needs to stop engaging in these petty feuds.
