GOP frontrunner Donald Trump argues that Fox News’s Megyn Kelly shouldn’t moderate the upcoming debate on January 28 in Iowa, three days before the Iowa caucus.
“Based on @MegynKelly’s conflict of interest and bias she should not be allowed to be a moderator of the next debate,†Trump posted to Twitter on Saturday.
Kelly was criticized for being unfair to Trump following the first GOP primary debate. And two days ago, Kelly was charged with unleashing “on Donald Trump and Sarah Palin,†who recently endorsed the GOP frontrunner.
“Breaking tonight, a moment with the potential to change the Republican race for the White House — or not,†Kelly sarcastically announced, referencing Palin’s endorsement of Trump.
Kelly also featured the “National Review Against Trump†story, having several of the anti-Trump commentators on her show, which resulted in the National Review being dumped from co-hosting an upcoming GOP primary debate.

Ditto.
Until TRUMP set her up today, splendidly for the debate, I was not going to watch.
He is signaling in the eyes to the debate. The heat will now be on HER performance as an “unbiased” panelist.
Have I said it, that TRUMP is a genius? .)
Nonsense....and as far as Cruz is concerned, he should be a Supreme Court Justice.
Cruz: The truth with a smile.
Did he smile when he explained his Goldman-Sachs loan?
With POWER.
TRUMP 2016
That cartoon must be why she cut her hair.
No Cruz supporters have been zotted, but a few have been taken down.
Trump isn’t boycotting. He’s putting Megyn, Fox and the audience on notice. This is a preemptive call-out.
I think she should just ignore him. That’ll really tick him off. Trump doesn’t like being ignored. It’d be fun to see.
See we Cruz supporters do have a sense of humor.
When you play any game, other players are your “adversaries”. The referees or umpires are supposed to be neutral. They’re there to ensure that the game is played fairly.
When MK is interviewing guests on her show, she can be as adversarial as she wants to be. However, if she’s purporting to be a debate moderator, then she must be neutral.
Exactly. He has a ligit objection and is playing it for viewers to watch her “unbiased” performance.
It is she who will be on the eyes of viewers watching her attempted assassination of him.
It gains him supporters.
He is a genius.
Not true. I say them zotted today for not agreeing to vote for Trump if he’s the nominee.
Actually, after his calling attention to her fatwa against him, she may do just that. Interesting point.
Poor Trump. He’s so picked on.
Could be that.
RNC chief Rinse Prius kick a whole network off the debates because of Gotcha biased questions.
Anyone know how we can contact the RNC Chief or start a petition that moderators must be unbiased.
Me Gyn has been after Trump we all know that why give her a chance at attacking him just before IOWA caucus?
The only difference between Megyn Kelly and Candy Crowley is about 45 pounds. There are plenty of better mods out there less irritating and less biased than Kelly.
Trump is playing this up for the ratings and possibly positioning himself as a target from the media. Trump wants Kelly at the debate. It is good for him and he knows it.
I think we should demand she be removed to the RNC.
There are too many darn debates, and there should at this point only be candidates that poll at least 8 percent at the debate.
We want to have a debate on issues not personal grudges of moderators like Me Gyn has with Trump.
I know Trump can handle her he has won all the debates and is leading by 30 percent in the Reuters poll. That isn’t the point. By the way the FNC debate was supposed to be on the economy, and fewer than 5 questions could in any way be classified about the economy, it was a waste of the talent and knowledge of Neal and Maria who really know finance and the economy.
I read the financial press every day and didn’t learn anything about the candidates plans for dealing with the world and national economy.
Tell Me Gyn the HO you gotta go
I agree. Megyn is just plain annoying, a tad too shrill and truly biased. If the GOPe can eliminate NR for their bias, the same should hold true for Megyn. Jmho
Neil Cavuto et al did a good job with the last one.
