Dear Donald Trump: For Next Time, Say This.
Original Content | 8/10/2015 | By Laz A. Mataz

Here's how I would have handled MeGynocology Kelly's question. I feel it was a missed opportunity for Trump:

KELLY: Mr. Trump, one of the things people love about you is you speak your mind and you don’t use a politician’s filter. However, that is not without its downsides, in particular, when it comes to women. You’ve called women you don’t like “fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals.” Your Twitter account has several disparaging comments about women’s looks. You once told a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees. Does that sound to you like the temperament of a man we should elect as president, and how will you answer the charge from Hillary Clinton, who was likely to be the Democratic nominee, that you are part of the war on women?

TRUMP: (Pauses) (Glares at Kelly)

TRUMP: Really? *THAT* is your first question for me? REALLY??? We have Iran about to get a nuclear weapon, and Obama helping it along... we have a massive invasion by illegal aliens who kill women on piers in Sanctuary Cities... we've got a crappy economy where jobs are being lost by the millions, Obamacare destroying the medical profession, China owning us in trade agreements, Obama bypassing Constitutional laws and restrictions .... and your main concern is if I called a woman UGLY???!? (momentary pause)

TRUMP: Yes, I called a woman ugly. Next question please. And lets make the next one actually one that affects Americans!

(WILD APPLAUSE)

I’m with you. I don’t support Trump, nor do I believe he’s “gone conservative”. However, I would have responded with, “Thanks for the question Ms. Kelly, but I have a question of my own. When did Fox begin to do opposition research on behalf of the Democrats and Jeb Bush...?”

But Trump is not capable of forming a response that doesn’t include himself.

Laz, you are right on target.

I have supported Trump because he is upsetting the DC Cartel’s plans to have a Bush v. Clinton rematch, wherein, Bush loses handily.

It has all been scripted for us.

My money goes to Cruz, but I realize Trump is performing a valuable service—the list of RINO casualties grows longer each day, thanks to him.

I can’t fault Trump for his answers Thursday night.

Within the first few minutes this is what he was hit with, on live TV before a national audience—an audience that was huge, thanks to him:

1. Brett Baier opens with his ridiculous pledge request. The ony person who answered honestly was Trump, and he gave his reason—if I am untreated fairly, why would I give up my leverage? The pledge question was designed to box Trump in. If the question was, if Trump is the nominee, would the rest of you support him? Few hands would have gone up. THAT would have been the news.

2. The yapping chihuahua Rand Paul starts in on Trump like a little kid in the schoolyard, pointing his bony finger at Trump. Trump looks at him like he would a fly, but does not lose his cool.

3. Megynocology Kelly starts in with an accusatory question about Trump and women, and unilaterally resurrects the War on Women, with a question we all know why fully vetted and approved by Fox management.

This question was also designed to take Trump out.

Trump answered it again honestly—that was Rosie O’Donnell—and the crowd roars in laughter.

Sustained laughter.

The laughter went on long enough, that as the camera pans back to Kelly, you can almost see the smoke coming out of her ears and eyes-—a discharge which is usually almost always followed by blood(OK—I made that up).

This all opens within minutes of the opening.

I admire Trump for being in the arena and taking the blows.

I admire that he answered so well.

I also know how hard it is, when you are in that position, with a multi layered accusatory question laid on you, and you are trying to formulate your response in your mind, how hard it is to get the right words out.

Trump is performing a wonderful service for America right now. I don’t really care how liberal he is—he is still a man of accomplishment and a businessman, and we could do far worse.

Cruz is my ideal nominee, and it is plain to see that everything Trump is doing, while benefitting Trump, is also benefitting Cruz.

Because if Trump is no longer in this race, the long knives are coming out for Cruz.

You can bet on that.

Anyway, Laz, all this does not take away from yet another brilliant, insightful article. Thanks.

Standard Trump Disclaimer: I don't support Trump as the nominee, I am suspicious of his former leanings. I *do* however, support Trump upsetting the Elitist Applecart.

That's where I am as well. I would suspect half or more of his support falls in the same camp.

I’ve been say that since he entered the race, was blasted for saying so from the beginning, yet and still the cannon fodder is getting worse, I like what the guy is doing turning the status quo inside out and shaking it up, but it is true that loose lips sinks ships, his switch clicks left and right and is worn from over use.

Excellent! That would have brought the house down and it would have put a stop to all the other nonsense questions.

I’ll bet Trump has kicked himself a hundred times for not saying exactly what you said.

He would have wrapped up the Presidency right there.
