Trump Says That Megyn Kelly Should Not Be Allowed To Moderate Next Debate
Young Conservatives ^ | 1/23/2016 | Andrew Mark Miller

Posted on 01/23/2016 5:37:20 PM PST by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Unless you live in outer space you probably heard about the controversy between Megyn Kelly and Donald Trump that stemmed from the Fox News debate where Megyn asked Trump a question he didn't like and he made a comment about her that a lot people were upset about. The jabbing has continued and recently Megyn Kelly said in an interview that Donald tried to "woo" her before the debate by calling her and sending her letters. Trump responded and basically called her ugly.

If you thought the feud was over. Think again.

Donald J. Trump/ @realDonaldTrump "Based on @MegynKelly's conflict of interest and bias she should not be allowed to be a moderator of the next debate."

There is no way that Fox would allow Donald Trump to boycott a debate and miss out on the millions of viewers he brings and they aren't going to ditch their rock star Megyn Kelly either so not sure what effects this stance will have. However, it is a pretty shrewd move from Trump to play up how unfair the media is which allows him to basically dismiss any question he doesn't like as unfair. Regardless of what side you are on in this feud we can all agree that we will be tuning in when they square off next.

He will make them mad. Just like he does you by his mere presence. Then he has the edge. You tilt, you lose.

Very poor judgment by Mr. Trump.

He can’t handle a woman? Not even one with blood coming out of her whatever.

This is a golden opportunity for Trump to man up; treat Megyn graciously and answer he questions truthfully and with all the charm he can muster.

He would come out looking good.

Now with this whining to Take the Mean Woman away, he just looks like a petulant sissy.

I don’t think Trump really likes women unless they marry him or fawn over him. He’s been extremely insulting to women before.

Not addressing this just to you but I cannot believe the people on this thread.

Just cannot.

It isn’t about being afraid of anything. People wanted to hear a queston to Trump on the economy or foreign policy, and Ms. Good Journalism wants to talk about an inane event on a reality show, misrepresenting the event she was asking about. She lost millions of fans at that point including me. Remove her from the event. Her interpretation of good journalism belongs on some Hollywood gossip show.

I think you should be more worried about The Don’s continual bullying.

He thinks he can dictate who the moderators are. I never like the moderators but he’s the only one who whines.

You may love the Donald but this clinging to a petty feud with a Fox News personality is neither adult nor presidential.

I would be embarrassed if I supported him.

And, yet, everyone here on this thread is all about how much they hate Megyn and nobody is noticing what an ass The Don is looking like.

Don’t worry, he’ll trot along to the debate and like it. He’s not quite THAT sure of himself and anyway, he loves to her himself talk. Maybe he can BE MEAN to her. What fun!

Lets see Trump show us examples of that tough negotiating like he claims he will do with Mexico, China, ... and make them cave with a phone call.

Lets see him get Kelly removed from the debate

Why is he so scared of her?

Not mad at all. Just having a little fun. Trump attacks everyone, yet one little jab at him gets multiple defenders calling foul!

Trump has served up the “if you can’t handle ... then how will you handle ISIS, Putin, China?” a couple of times. He should get a chance to taste it, too.

So, if Trump is going to lay waste to the DC establishment, don’t ya’ think it might have to deal with people who are biased? He can’t handle one lady who he likes to belittle on Twitter?

Maybe the establishment just need to hire Megan as their negotiator...

That’s another thing. Trump tweets more than a teenage girl.
How many nasty tweets did he sent to Megyn?

And that’s who you want?

Well, allrighty then.

>>She has been wearing tops with high necklines and has cut the sexy locks. Trying to clean up her “slutty” image?<<

Getting right down there in the gutter with your precious leader, aren’t you.

People need to come to their senses and realize what Trump is doing to his followers, because if elected he will be dragging the entire country down to the same level.

Who benefits?

Fox.

Americans are not served by this debate, only Fox. They want a spectical for the ratings. People will watch for that.

Is money going to wounded warriors?

Meghan needs to be replaced with someone credible. Trump needs to don his presidential persona. Show us that he is wise enough to walk away from a set up FOX debate spectical. People know what his political positions are.

Intra-party debates are a stupid idea. I’d do away with them entirely.

The RNC needs to cancel the debate.

She’s been pimping on his behalf lately. What the heck is his problem?

All they do is give the Democrats fodder down the road. Notice during the Democrat debates all the candidates play it pretty close to the vest.

Donald Trump should man up and stop all his whining about everything.
Concentrate on what you will do to help fix the economy and protect the USA from our enemies like the democrats and the terrorists and Iran etc.. Megan Kelly is not a problem except for a man who is thin skinned. I can’t imagine his whining for 4 years like this.
