Donald Trump Remains Defiant on News Programs Amid G.O.P. Backlash
NYSlimes ^ | NICHOLAS CONFESSORE

Posted on 08/09/2015 12:25:13 PM PDT by RoosterRedux

A defiant Donald J. Trump suggested on Sunday that he had been singled out for attacks by the hosts of Thursday’s Republican presidential debate and again threatened a third-party White House bid if he was not treated “reasonably fairly” by party leaders.

In a rapid-fire series of phone interviews with four Sunday television news programs, Mr. Trump defended his record on women’s issues, arguing that his real estate company had been among the first to put women in charge of major construction projects and that he had “always had a great relationship to the women.” He criticized the Fox News anchors who were moderators in the debate, saying that no other candidate had been subjected to similarly tough questioning.

He said Friday that as Megyn Kelly of Fox News questioned him, “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever.’’

And he struck back at critics of his remarks about Megyn Kelly, one of the moderators, saying that his appraisal of Ms. Kelly’s motives for questioning him sharply during the debate — that she had “blood coming out of her wherever” — was being deliberately misconstrued by his rivals as a reference to menstruation in an effort to dampen his surge in popularity with Republican voters. He had made similar remarks, he told more than one interviewer, about Chris Wallace, one of the other moderators.

What backlash? His polls went up. Again.

Or does the Slimes mean the backlash by the GOPe and LSM? That’s not backlash. That’s just the uniparty in action.

Reminds me of something Churchill said:
We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender,

Backlash by the GOPe, not normal people.

I’m a Cruz guy, but my lord the anti-Trump lynchings is outrageous.

Okay, I’m sick of this whole MK/Trump thing. IMHO, I think Donald should have let this go - the viewers saw what happened, and came to his defense. I’m almost on the Trump train, but want him to stop this childish tweeting over every little thing. He has every right to defend himself and fight back, and I wouldn’t expect anything less from him, but there are better words that he can choose when he counter punches. I’m kind of sick of hearing about how rich he is, and how he is ahead in the polls. I want more substance from him, which I know he is capable of - his books are full of conservative ideas -he needs to spend his interview time hammering those to the electorate. A little dust up is ok - it keeps things exciting, but, these twitter wars are juvenile. It’s ok if others disagree with me - we have a country to save - keep that in mind.

“Defiant” LOL

Translation: He is a different kind of Republican. We’re not sure how to deal with one who has a spine.

Finally, we all see the real Erick Erickson, middle name: Hypocrite. Erick has used far worse and more direct terms publicly. He was given ‘orders’ to participate in the hyena take down attempt.

No, that would be Rand Paul - he is a different kind of a Republican who has a curly top.

The Cheap Labor Express is really anxious to get Trump out of the race. They can’t have people thinking that the invasion and colonization of the nation can be stopped.

I can’t imagine how much he will be gloating on Meet the Press later on today.

Churchill also said: “If the British Empire lasts a thousand years they will say this was her finest hour.”

Never surrender! Never give up! Americans love a fighter! Donald may be battered but he’s not beaten.

And believe me, Churchill said some things that would have gotten him in a lot of trouble back then with today’s media.
