Donald Trump goes on raging tweetstorm about Megyn Kelly and the 'total disaster' debate
Business Insider ^ | January 28, 2016 | Brett LoGiurato

Real-estate mogul Donald Trump called the coming Fox News-hosted Republican debate a "total disaster" and shared a Twitter user's post that called Fox News host Megyn Kelly a "bimbo" during a raging series of tweets hours before he was set to boycott the Thursday-night debate.

"The 'debate' tonight will be a total disaster — low ratings with advertisers and advertising rates dropping like a rock. I hate to see this," the Republican presidential front-runner wrote.

The real-estate tycoon had told Fox host Bill O'Reilly on Wednesday night that he hoped Fox did "well," even though he said the network would "make much less" money without him on stage.

Trump also continued his assault on Kelly, with whom he has feuded for months.

One tweet, which Trump promoted on his account Thursday morning, attacked Kelly for a GQ Magazine photo shoot and labeled her a "bimbo."

"And this is the bimbo that's asking presidential questions?" the tweet said. The user attached two photos from the shoot with text that read, "Criticizes Trump for objectifying women ... Poses like this in GQ Magazine."

The candidate shared the post a day after he had said he wouldn't refer to Kelly as a "bimbo," a term used to insult women, because doing so would "not be politically correct."

Trump drew some backlash last year when he twice promoted tweets calling Kelly a "bimbo." One of the times Trump retweeted the insult was after Kelly, a moderator at an August debate, confronted him about past comments he had made about women's looks.

He’s going off the deep end. Trumped by a petty feud.

Does Trump hold grudges this badly? Let it go, Donald. She’s a reporter, what did you expect?

Donald your inability to let this “insult” is very troubling.

In two days He’s insulted Michelle Malkin and Megyn Kelly two solid conservative woman and obsessively keeps it up to the cheers of his fanboys. When did it be cool on this forum to demean conservative woman?

This may be the meltdown people warned about. Then again, it may not. Either way, his most rabid supporters will have no trouble explaining it.

No, he is negotiating. Brilliantly I might add. Not saying I am in full support but this is classic business deal making. Trump owns the media and they are in a snit about.

And what happened to Cruz after Trump carpet bombed him on Twitter? He crashed in the polls. Sorry.

There are real issues in this country that deserve to be discussed. Instead. Trump is orchestrating this circus. he’s acting like a Democrat. It’s a pathetic disgrace.

wow its like a 13 year old that found out that not every one liked him... If he was a 13 year old doing this at a school they would put a watch on him for possible “incidents” in the future.
