Donald Trump’s feud with Megyn Kelly escalated Friday night when he said the Fox News host had “blood coming out of her wherever” at this week’s Republican debate, resulting in swift condemnation from conservatives and a major political event pulling its invitation to him.
…
Penny Young Nance, the CEO and president of the conservative group Concerned Women for America, told CNN that Trump’s “tantrum was even more enlightening than his original remarks she questioned.”
..
Media mogul and Fox News owner Rupert Murdoch praised debate moderators Kelly, Bret Baier and Chris Wallace early Saturday morning while criticizing his friend Trump.
…
Republican presidential hopefuls – all of whom are trailing Trump in national polls – swiftly blasted the remarks and condemned Trump.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee – a former Fox News host himself – told CNN Saturday morning outside the gathering that he hopes Trump apologizes.
…
Former Hewlett-Packard Carly Fiorina, the only woman running for the GOP nomination, was quick to slam Trump’s comment Friday night…
George Pataki, the former New York governor, called Trump’s latest controversy a “sad but predictable meltdown from Trump.”…
South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham said in a statement that Trump’s statements “are not worthy of the office he is seeking.”
“As a party, we are better to risk losing without Donald Trump than trying to win with him,” Graham said. “Enough already with Mr. Trump.”
But just as he did when asked about Trump’s questioning of Sen. John McCain’s war record last month, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz declined to criticize Trump on Saturday.
…
The RedState Gathering, meanwhile, will go on without Trump. This year, the annual event features fellow GOP presidential candidates Fiorina, Huckabee, Cruz, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Bobby Jindal, Rick Perry, Marco Rubio and Scott Walker.

all the complainers are irrelevant today >>>
agreed.
The 2015 Murdoch bomb entrusted to poor Megyn detonated and killed her instead of Trump. To paraphrase her glee the day before in this teaser:
“.. I mean, one of these guys could be out by eleven tomorrow night!”
May the same fate befall all those dealing treachery.. As well as the horse they rode in on.
Yes, agreed.
When I think of Megyn Kelly a very strong B word comes to mind. I remember what she did in that debate. She is a terrible human being.
Trump managed to evade the electoral threat that his frankly sordid personal history created among white suburban females in the election of 2016 but that history came back to bite both him and our party in 2018, 2020 and 2022.
Megan Kelly did not put words in trumps mouth, he did that for himself, she anticipated Trump's Access Hollywood remarks fully justifying her question in this debate.
For the record, I support Trump and regard him as essential to the survival of the Republic but I support the truth first.
If you bother to watch Megyn Kelly show clips on YouTube notice what she has turned into. But it is media and perhaps she knows which side her bread is buttered on.
