Trump escalates Megyn Kelly feud with 'bimbo' tweet
The Hill ^ | January 27, 2016 | Neetzan Zimmerman

Donald Trump wasted no time Wednesday morning fanning the flames of his newly reignited feud with Fox News star Megyn Kelly.

"I refuse to call Megyn Kelly a bimbo, because that would not be politically correct," the Republican presidential front-runner said in an early morning tweet. "Instead I will only call her a lightweight reporter!"

Trump has taken issue with Kelly since the two faced off in last summer's Fox News debate - the first Republican debate of the 2016 election cycle.

Trump's last throw down with "The Kelly File" host was similarly punctuated by the b-word [Aug 24, 2015].

The rivalry was restarted Tuesday night after the real estate mogul announced through his campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, that he would not be participating in Thursday's Republican debate, which is slated to air on Fox News.

In a pre-rally press conference in Iowa City, Iowa, Trump referred to Kelly as a "lightweight" and a "third-rate reporter," and suggested he would be sitting out the debate in favor of a charity event for the Wounded Warrior Project.

Kelly quickly responded on her show by declaring that she would not step down as moderator.

Her network soon followed suit with their own response, accusing Lewandowski of threatening Kelly, and vowing to not to give into "terrorizations."

You are right but, you left something out. Megyan Kelly is a full blown “BIMBO” that adores fat boy moron, America hater, Michael Moore, and, the ego-maniac, insane, lunatic, Glenn Beck!!! You are judged by the company you keep!!! Trump is gonna wipe up the floor with Roger Ailes and FNC!!!

Hat is one interpretation, another is that the last debate before any of the people make their voice heard will be over.

Right. Call her a bimbo by saying he refuses to call her a bimbo.

I just watched his interview with Bret Baier last night. As I said on another thread, “Big boy questions. Big boy anwers.” A good interview on both sides.

But he can’t give up the childish name calling. Again, it is the type of behavior I would accept from my own kids or grandkids. I doubt Trump would accept it from his kids. Why should I accept it from him?

If that pic of Meggers and fat boy isn’t jumping the shark nothing is.

What? Megyn Kelly is throwing a fundraiser for Wounded Warriors? Since when?

She will still be a small minded petty bimbo if she does though.

I disagree. Fox exposed themselves with that snarky release they made.

Trump countered by calling Kelly a bimbo. He took it to grade school insults rather than pointing out that Fox made an agregious error in posting something snarky.

He keeps saying Kelly is a lightweight. Then take on the lightweight at the debates! He is supposedly the better man; much smarter, much richer. He could easily handle this. What’s going to happen if he is President and Russia, China, North Korea, or another power is “Unfair” to him? Is he going to call them names and say “I’m not going to talk to them. They’re low energy, stupid bimbo’s.”. I can’t see that boding well for the US.

We need to cut the guy some slack. He only became a Republican in the last couple years. He doesn't know the nuances of the ideology enough to publicly defend it.

It appears he hasn't learned the subtle nuances of total capitulation that is the chief Republican trait. We have one of those annoying majorities in Congress, so we'll give the demons everything they want, nuances. It's OK though. The retards on the stage thursday night have asked their mothers if they could run and have their wives tap the spigots of their globalist masters.

"Oh, he handled her all right."

Riiiight. He handled her from the safety of his twitter account. He's a coward, running from her, looking for his "safe zone".

“Cruz should abandon the debate and go with Trump.”

I don’t see that happening at this point. Trump has slandered Cruz too much over the past week and a half. Calling him stupid. Saying no-one likes him. He is hated. Etc. I can’t see Cruz jumping on board at this point....

Hannity ended his show begging Trump to come to his senses, but skipped any mention of the press release set started all this.

No, he's going to walk away from the table, say "bye-bye" and tell the world they're stupid people.

Kelly opened her show with it. She was in a flop sweat. At that point she clearly though she had made Trump back down.

So...such a statement begets the question...who are you to get into it?

Are you planning a Stephanopolous moment? It appears that you are. Why are you injecting yourself into this?
