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.

RE:”In the spirit of The Donald: If he can't handle Megyn, how can he handle ISIS, Putin and China?”

Or even Hillary?

It's hard to believe that Trump's whining strategy would work outside of this primary, if it even works here.

Refuse to show up Don. Stop whining and be a man.

Agreed.

Ratings matter, and the ratings will follow Trump.

If Megyn Kelly asks Trump a question, he should calmly pull a pair of dark sunglasses from his pocket, and offer them to Megyn, saying “No one will have to see the blood coming out of her eyes again”. Only then should he respond to the question, if it’s not a childish moronic question like the kinds she asks.

We wanted to hear questions about the country’s problems, and Fox had Me Gyn ask about Rosie O’donell’s feud with Trump. Rosie started attacking first.

Last week Me Gyn had NR panel of Trump haters on.

Me Gyn is a Trump hater. Why the RNC lets this go on I don’t know but I am going to call them and email them

I wish I knew how to get the RNC chair so I could ask him how this is any different than John Harwood.

I know a lot of Cruz people are glad, but the Fox folks are biased against him too. Me Gyn went after Ted’s religious background. Me Gyn is a HO with no religion.

The Ho gotta go.

Watch the Fox election coverage from 2012. You will see that Megyn is actually on Obama’s side. She looked like a blushing bride while Karl Rove was telling not to believe our lying eyes.

I can’t stand the bitch and it has nothing to do with Donald Trump.

I love women, ladies, gals, beautiful creatures all, but I can’t stand bitches. I hold absolutely zero respect for bitches and never will.

Oh, and about that butch haircut she is now sporting, it just makes her look even more like the bitch that she is.

As for Trumps’ comments, he is just playing with her head before the fight. Kinda like a cat does right before he makes a snack out of his prey.

The lib bitch will lose.

Megyn was giddy when Obama won.

I remember that.

Hey...you know Me Gyn makes fun of people that rhyme? She did just that the other night while trying to get Brit to trash Palin after her endorsement of Trump.

I prefer someone that rhymes over a journalist that slimes. LOL

>> Too many so-called Freepers are apparently not so much in favor of freedom.

Don’t be ridiculous. Every candidate enjoys the liberty to select his venue. But most prefer to bend over and accept the MSM’s manipulation of information.

No, we want media from “our side” to actually be on our side. We get enough opposition from the Media as it is. What MK did was unprofessional and totally not on “our” side.

She slammed Trump and Cruz (the Trump stuff got the most airplay)but lobbed softball questions at Jeb and Rubio, imo. I have a problem with that.

” I shudder to think what the White House press corps will look like in a Trump Administration”

A whole lot better than the “most transparent administration” we have now with Obama where the Media covers for him daily.

I think Trump should show up, not doing so is an act of being worried...and he has NOTHING to be worried about...

Plus, if Miss Kelly decided to be the ‘....monger’ she is, it will look bad on her and Fox News Network and Trump can show he is a ‘Gentleman’ to all women....

GO.TRUMP.GO!!!

RE:”I know a lot of Cruz people are glad, but the Fox folks are biased against him too. Me Gyn went after Ted's religious background. Me Gyn is a HO with no religion.”

I have seen Cruz on Kelly's show many times through the end of last year.

He always thanks her for being invited.

In contrast TRump the cowardly lion seems terrified to face her.

Yet he cant see a way out of it in this debate, he will whine but not walk away.

I hope she nails him.

If he cant handle her then Hillary will have him for lunch.

YOU ARE CONFUSED. That is Trump who smeared Cruz on his religion and his citizenship. He is the sleazy mud thrower.

GO Megyn!

I made a point, and you again reply with invective instead of reason. That explains your support for Trump.

Trumps comments guarantee a huge audience tuning in to see if there will be fireworks. Trump will capitalize on that. He knows how to dominate the media.

Yes, you’re right, the hand-picked, totally certified ESTABLISHMENT AUDIENCE are the trained seals to applaud only for the ESTABLISHMENT candidates and to BOO on cue when TRUMP speaks or answers a question from MS KELLY!

How utterly convenient -— the debate takes place 2 days before the Iowa Caucus.
