Death blow from Fox News' Megyn Kelly already taking effect on Trump
The Chicago Tribune ^ | August 9, 2015 | John Kass

There is no cure for the Touch of Death, or Dim Mak as it's known in those cheesy martial arts movies..

Legend and comic books tell us that it is a precise and forceful strike, with delayed yet fatal result, sometimes taking days or weeks to do its work.

It is subtle, quick, almost unseen, and usually delivered by a monk or some warrior priest with a top knot. Uma Thurman used it to great effect in "Kill Bill: Vol 2." When she was done, she flashed a smirk of wistful sadness.

That's what happened to Donald Trump's presidential campaign, which received the Touch of Death from Megyn Kelly, the warrior priestess of Fox News....

Kelly destroyed her reputation.

She is nothing more than a newsbimbo.

Given the crotch shot pics now circulating all over NOBODY can take her seriously again.

The reports of his political death are being constantly exaggerated.

She blew him to death?

Megyn Kelly didn't do anything damaging to Trump - wishful thinking.
BESIDES - in a land with a theoretically unbiased media, since when is it admirable for a dimwitted talking head and moderator to not only take sides, but decide who wins and who loses?

Since when do moderators take sides and choose winners/losers?

The guy is careful to keep his prediction “long range” as Mark Twain termed it. Those are safer predictions to make.

John Kass engaging in wishful thinking again. It’s becoming a habit with this guy.

If The Chicago Tribune told me the sun was out in the middle of the Sahara Desert I’d have a look for myself.

These idiots think if they simply say it enough it will be so.

You know, just keep repeating the narrative and all the lemmings will take it up.

Come next week they will all be wringing their hands again.

They have successfully picked the nominees of both parties for some time now. Make them stop it.

Exatly!

The GOPe is going to war against Trump.

They are unleashing their “sleeper” rats in the media to declare him dead.

I know Goebbels once said if you say a lie long enough, then that becomes reality.

However, Trump has dealt with this his entire life in one of the toughest business cities in the world New York. Moreover, we are in the Information Age. The GOPe is going to have a hard time doing this.

Furthermore, whatever the GOPe says, then it's just the opposite. I would bet Trump probably has his biggest lead ever.

People hate the media, the political class and political correctness.

Anyone on the opposite side, that's a strong Alpha Male like Trump will do well.

I think all these predictions of doom and gloom just keep elevating Trump.

The GOPe is worried that if Trump is successful, then Republican party will become more conservative. Since it will no longer be about political correctness, amnesty and rigid trade deals. Finally, the GOPe monopoly will be finished. This is why they have declared war on Trump.

Every time they go after Trump he gets stronger. Leftists will force his election guaranteeing their demise. This is a leftist suicide mission.

they’re trying to manufacture reality.

I think you've hit the bottom line.

And, which is why people are as pissed off at them as they are the current office holders.

STOP TELLING US WHAT TO THINK !

Establishment, MSM wh◊ŘĘ has no even attempted to hide her bias and desire to take sides - the wishful thinking MSM crows noisily about her 'feat' as if it was her job to remove Trump from the race.

She only made him stronger.

Liberals brains are exploding. RINOs’ too. This is more fun than we’ve had in 6 1/2 years.

By the knowing looks, nods and smirks shared by the 3 FOX moderators, I would say they were just there to get sound bites for use later and were quite pleased with their efforts.

That wasn’t lost on their audience nor was Megyn’s hostility to Trump or their ignoring of Cruz.

Because the audience was aware of all that, Trump should have kept his mouth shut - the moderators had already hung themselves IMO. Now Trump’s extremely inappropriate choice of words is drawing all sorts of fire and once again giving the left and msm the opportunity to screech “war on women”.

I never thought I would be repulsed by Megyn but after I heard about the Stern interview she is apparently a real live low life.

Kiss of Death?

How come Donald’s numbers went up after the debate? That’s one weird kiss of death.

Sorry but Trump sounds like he has taken up drinking...a lot!

I am a very polite person, Reagan was a very polite person and Trump sounds like an angry drunk at a bar
