When she is right, she is right; when she is wrong, she is wrong. This time Megyn Kelly is right, and I applaud her for it.
She addressed a feud nine years ago between Rosie O’Donnell and Trump.
They made public comments about each other. Trump during the process made uncomplimentary comments about Rosie and Kelly just had to ask Trump if that was right to do.
I may ot have gotten this exactly right, but it was very close to this.
In addition, I always think of one of her early appearances after Things Went Sideways, when she showed up in that black and red “black widow” dress.
In Kelly’s question she mentioned a number of incidences over time where Trump made what could have been taken as anti-female comments. She then asked him if he felt this could be a problem given the democratic strategy of claiming republicans are waging a war on woman. It was a legitimate question. Trump has gone on to validate the question by making misogynistic comments concerning both Kelly and Fiorina. Trump might have done well listening to the question and doing some introspection. It might have saved him some problems and prevented the current slide he is having in the polls due to his emasculation by Fiorina.
Whoever are Mooshelle’s stylists we need to thank them for years of belly laughs.
“It might have saved him some problems and prevented the current slide he is having in the polls due to his emasculation by Fiorina.”
Are you delusional or did you just fall down? Let me jerk you roughly back to reality. Trump is leading in every poll nationwide and in every state. By large margins. Carly lets fire on Russian fighter jets Fiorina is going nowhere. In another month or two if her handlers can’t tape her mouth shut she will be out.
Isn’t it strange how those large flocks of people keep descending on Trump campaign stops by accident.
10, 20, 30,000 people, just accidentally showing up at the same time.
Most everyone thinks Kelly was a mindless fool by asking the question she did. You you find value in it.
He is beating favorite sons in their home states, and this within recent days.
I’m not sure where you got your perception of things, but try to get your money back.
You are correct that Trump is leading in every poll, with the exception of the IBD poll. But you are delusional if you can’t admit that since the CNN debate he has lost about 25% of his support. In the Real Clear Politics average of polls Trump has gone from over 30% to just over 23%. Even using the Trump favorite on-line poll he has gone from close tp 40% to just over 32%. By all measures he has dropped by about 25% since Fiorina emasculated him in the CNN poll. That never would have happened if he would have heeded Kelly’s question and watched the way referred to both Kelly and Fiorina in his comments.
I personally didn’t even know that the NYT or the WAPO had mad negative comments until Megyn Kelly pointed it out and put it up for debate on her show that I no longer watch....and then it got posted here.
Once I knew a very dangerous bad guy and he had the same technique - “oh I never believed that so and so did ....(fill in the blank”. So by doing that he laid out the possibility that it was true when others may never have known or forgotten about it. Very indirect and very effective.
Try to keep up. The two new moving averages polls out today have Trump at 34% and 35% respectively. Carson trailing at 17% and Fiorina well below that.
IOW, Megyn is vying for an interview with Melania since she burned her bridges with the Donald. And we once said lawyers were the lowest of the low.
First of all those two polls are on-line poll and they do not measure the population but just measure the people who respond to the on-line polls. And by the way in the Reuter’s poll Trump’s support has dropped by about 25% since the CNN debate. Every measure out there has demonstrated that Trump has lost about 25% since the CNN debate. Those are the numbers. You can pretend they don’t exsist but they do. His drop is totally related to his emasculation by Fiorina. He was groveling at her feet. I was so embarrassed for him. That could have been avoided by a tiny bit of introspection concerning the question Kelly asked him. Criticism is how we learn. Trump would be wise to listen once in a while. But Trump and his supporters are totally incapable of understanding anything but their propaganda.
Those weren’t questions from Kelly - they were accusations.
And, the thing with Rosie was old. I’m not sure when the comment was made about Fiorina - do you know? Was it after he didn’t take your recommended instruction from Megyn Kelly on how to run for POTUS?
She was there to take him out - plain and simple and sort of said so - i.e. when she said that “tonight could change the course of history and one of these guys could be out after tonight”.
The comments about Fiorina were published in Rolling Stone 3 or 4 weeks ago. They were recent comments (comments made after the Fox debate). In Kelly’s question she mentioned 3 or 4 different comments Trump made. One specifically to an apprentice contestant. So the question was not just about Rosie it was about comments Trump has made over a long period of time.
From a woman who keeps her husband at home cleaning house and raising the kids so she can feed her massive fembot ego
I bet she commands sex...yuck...I can’t imagine with that abrasive personality
I’ve seen her go both barrels at Huckabee and Santorum over study after study showing kids do better if mom is home in earlier years
Women today are brainwashed over this need to validate or they don’t need a man
She like others live in an illusory world of convenience
We are only one extended power outage away from the real world where women need men to live or not be gang raped
It’s tenuous
And her overblown ego is oblivious
Foolish era
Ah yes, the apprentice contestant. Do you realize how many hours FOX people spent going through past episodes trying to find something they could make seem dirty? And when they brought this up the woman contestant in question denied that it was anything nasty at all. My understanding is that in the full context it is nothing more than a humorous remark.
One thing about Trump that he has made clear - his retaliation is equal opportunity. I see nothing wrong with this and Hillary is on notice.
Fiorina did not emasculate Trump - you may think so, I don’t. We have a country to save - I will not get mired in these side shows.
The first thing in basic training (1966) that was music to your ears....”if you got em, smoke em!”
She’s go “em.”
You sound just like a feminist. And pompously advising Trump what he must do to please the women libbers.
I like Trump’s attitude towards women. He is old fashioned chivalrous towards them while admiring them for both beauty and brains. His very pretty daughter who loves and admires her Dad, now is one of the heads, along with her two brothers, running her father’s business empire. Ivanka sure turned out well, inheriting her Dad’s business acumen.
Melania, Trump’s wife, is beautiful and smart and talented artistically, with her own jewelry line of items she designs herself. Trump obviously chooses women with brains as well as beauty. He’s my kind of man. Ugly feminist types would I’m sure think otherwise.
********************
Wrong.
After the debateds, Rosie and the woman from Apprentice states that they were not offended by Trump.
Seems they are better able to ‘man up’ than oversensitive fiorina.
If fiorina can’t man up, Trump has every right to say, “carly, you’re FiredRino!”
