Megyn Kelly hit out at Donald Trump Thursday morning after he retweeted an unflattering picture of Ted Cruz's wife Heidi.
Kelly, who has been the victim of many a Trump attack herself, posted Trump's retweet on her own Twitter account and wrote; 'Seriously?'
The photo reweeted by Trump showed Heidi next to a very flattering image of Trump's model wife Melania and read; 'No need to "spill the beans." The images are worth a thousand words.'
He posted the photo just one day after threatening to 'spill the beans' on Heidi after a super PAC backing Cruz released an advert showing his wife Melania naked from a photo spread she did back in 2000 for the men's magazine GQ.

I think you're making the same analytical error as Trump. He has run his primary campaign as if how you win is unimportant - that insulting and tearing down other candidates in a primary is just as good as simply out-shining them. And it isn't, because you will eventually need them as allies for the greater fight to come if you hope to win. Trump has been systematically insulting/offending the very people he will need after the Convention. It is utter foolishness.
Rome could not defeat Carthage in the Second Punic War until they converted the Numidians to allies, depriving Hannibal of his advantage in cavalry.
Had it been Donald Trump instead of Scipio, he would have told Masinissa that his wife was fat, his kids were ugly, and the food he served was gross. And he'd have gotten his ass kicked at Zama.
If what you say is true, then why didn’t Cruz IMMEDIATELY disavow the nudie pic of Trump’s wife, condemn the SuperPAC and call for the firing of all involved? That would’ve ended this childish argument, would have earned him kudos from anyone for being decent, and would have made him look more Presidential.
Instead, all Cruz did was to issue a perfunctory disavowal, and proceeded to attack Trump for saying that he’d “spill the beans” on Heidi Cruz. Pray tell, if there were no “beans” to spill, then what was Cruz so upset about? How, if there are no “beans” to spill, is what Trump said an attack on Heidi Cruz?
“And frankly you don’t know the assertions I made aren’t true.”
You also have failed to prove you are not a pedophile, serial killer. Fortunately, we live in a land where the right to a speedy trial, judged by a jury of our peers, innocent until proven guilty are our rights.
Maybe it is you who prefers living somewhere else.
A quick Google search of PO BOX 26141 Alexandria, Va 22313 yields hundreds of results, most of which are political or charity related. A few of the links refer back to YOUR post. Did you conspire to publish that photo of Trump’s wife?
Or maybe Cruz had to return Rove’s weather machine and out of desperation he put together this conspiracy because ONLY Ted Cruz has ANY desire to stop Trump, and only Ted Cruz has the brilliant mind needed to dig up an old embarrassing photo and slap together a nasty ad. This could not possibly have been done without him thinking it up, paying someone to do it, and risking not just the presidential race, but criminal charges because as a Harvard graduate lawyer he would not think about such ramifications.
You have built a giant straw man from the straws you are grasping at.
“Or is there more to this than Ted trying to keep a Mistress quiet?”
You are spreading lies and innuendos about a man in your support of another who is an admitted adulterer. I could easily put together a volume of nasty stuff to say about your preferred candidate, but I choose to support Trump and Cruz as the two candidates I am okay with in spite of their flaws. I am not working overtime to help the left by perpetuating a conservative bloodbath.
But you are.
Try focussing on what makes your candidate better, and reserve the nastiness for the enemy rather than a worthy rival.
I’ll bite. The REAL issue is our national sovereignty is at stake.
All the amnesty money bag pushers are behind Cruz.
Clear as day.
Yes Durbie, be careful. Take stock of who is behind Cruz now, can you say amnesty? I knew you could.
Please cruzettes, buy a clue!
Keep telling yourself that Scott. I’m certain all the feminists detest him but I can guarantee you, ALL my conservative friends who are female, love him.
Too bad they never poll me and my friends. I wonder why
You are correct Jim, it’s so clear a blind bat can see it but to the Cruz fans they HAVE to have something to complain about. Otherwise the topic would be all the amnesty freaks lined up behind Cruz. Gee, I wonder what that portends?!
Of course you do. However, you're not representative of the electorate as a whole. And it's not me telling myself anything of the sort. These are voters' reactions.
So you’re saying I’m not a voter or represent a voter?
Believe the spin, I’m sure it help your dislike for Trump.
That was an article in fr...I simply resent it.
Kelly is obsessed with Trump because she is using him for ratings.
If you just insinuated that I am a serial killer or pediPhone you need to check yourself. And that is that. Done.
Megyn Kelly is an idiot. It becomes more and more apparent each day
She should be getting offers from MSNBC and CNN soon...I’ve given up watching her........
I did not insinuate anything. I just pointed out the hypocrisy of your position in which it is perfectly fine to hurl accusations without any evidence.
Thank God we live in a country where a speedy trial by a jury of our peers with a presumption of innocence are rights. Perhaps you prefer to live without these rights. You don’t seem to think Cruz should have them.
Yes. I understand that. I am pointing out that an addressed shared with many, many entities is no evidence of anything than grasping at straws.
We’re in God’s hands, just like surfing at Jaws at Maui.
Hope springs eternal.
:)
you most certainly did insinuate something. Regardless of each others’ political preferences, thoughts on the candidates behaviors etc. you crossed the line with your base and disgusting insinuation toward me. I am not a public figure running for office who frankly is at risk for all kinds of press good or bad. I am a private citizen on a forum who you have flat out attacked in a manner I neither deserved or expected since everyone else on here seems to know that we do have the right to disagree without being slandered.just because you disagree with someone you don’t have the right to make things up about them out of whole cloth....much like a candidate and his superpac seem to enjoy doing. Enjoycthe rest of the campaign.Thank you and good bye.
Really? I do not know a Conn Yankee. Is that your real name?
Is Conn Yankee a private citizen? I thought it was a fictitious screen name.
If that is your real name, I will apologize for insinuating you rape and murder children, Conn.
Otherwise, get over yourself. And be sure to let us know when you stop beating your wife. And if that does not make sense to you, you need to do a little homework and then come back to the forum to make your point.
Until then, don’t just make up something about a candidate, post it as fact, and then get your feelings hurt when you get called out.
And if I did not make things clear, I do not and never have suspect anything malicious about you or your character.
It was NOT my intention to make anyone think such things about you.
My intention is to simply show that no one should have to get up and dance every time someone hurls a malicious accusation.
I truly assume you are a good person and patriotic American, which is why you are on this forum promoting your candidate.
I also think the same about Ted Cruz AND Donald Trump. Both are flawed human beings, but I will take either as president if it is up to me.
