Erick Erickson Disinvites Trump From Red State Gathering Over Megyn Kelly Insults
The Daily Caller ^ | Saturday, August 8, 2015 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 08/07/2015 10:46:29 PM PDT by kristinn

Red State’s Erick Erickson dis-invited GOP presidential candidate and businessman Donald Trump after he insulted Fox News anchor and Thursday night’s debate moderator Megyn Kelly during a CNN interview Friday night.

I have rescinded my invitation to Mr.Trump. While I have tried to give him great latitude, his remark about Megyn Kelly was a bridge too far — Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) August 8, 2015

“Well I just don’t respect her as a journalist. I have no respect for her. I think she’s highly overrated. But when I came out there what was I doing I’m not getting paid for this. I go out there. And you know they start saying lift up. And you know I didn’t know there would be 24 million people I figured but I knew it was going to be a big crowd because I get big crowds I get ratings they call me the ratings machine so I have you know she she gets out and she starts asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions,” Trump said to CNN’s Don Lemon.

He went further saying, “And you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes blood coming out of her — whatever. She was in my opinion — she was off-base. And by the way, not in my opinion, in the opinion of hundreds of thousands of people on Twitter because it has been a brutal day. In one way a great day for Fox. in another day in the Twitter sphere it’s been very bad because she’s been very badly criticized. She’s a lightweight. I couldn’t care less about her.”

The New York Times is flat out stating that Trump suggested she was menstruating. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/09/us/politics/donald-trump-disinvited-from-conservative-event-over-remark-on-megyn-kelly.html

LOL!

You are a clueless jerk who has no sense, no sensibilities, and probably are chair of your local Hillary! chapter!

Run along you little politically-correct weenie liberal! I’m sure you have a ‘diversity training course’ to teach!

LOL!

Of course they lie. It's their stock in trade.

I just read that Carly Fiorina tweeted “I stand with Megyn Kelly”

Carly is clearly menstruating again.

Kelly acted completely unprofessional at that debate, it was embarrassing. As those two Black ladies said, she ought to be delivering the news on Sesame Street between Kermit and Miss Piggy.

That video had me dying. Screw the RINOs. I never even heard of this Erick guy nor his website. But I see Rove's filthy hands all over this.

Looking at her wrinkles, I’d bet on hot flashes.

Yes, that is what he meant to say.

Carnac The Magnificent strikes again!

Okay Carnac: What am I about to write next?

"TINMOUTH is a no-account RINO liberal lackey scumbag who is a politically-correct freak and a teacher of Diversity Training courses."

WOW! You ARE good.

LOL!

Trump’s best counter?

“I couldn’t have been talking about her menstruating. Look at her. She’s well beyond that time.”

Erickson didn’t like Trump from the get go. He has a drive-time slot on our local AM/FM radio and often fills in for Herman Cain.
And for a Christian, he says some pretty un-Christian things on the air.

redstate “disinvites” The Donanld is a BIG story? Really? Almost no one except die-hard conservatives even know redstate exists: they’re ranked only number 36 for conservative websites by alexa, and I think only about 900 people were slated to attend this event. That the main stream media plays up an organization that “disinvites” Trump that none of them has even heard of before tells you how desperate they are to prevent someone they can’t control from being President. Next thing you know, the media will be howling because Trump has been “disinvited” from the dogcatchers convention.If Trump were REALLY smart, he’d invite all the disenchanted redstate ticket holders to a Trump event just for them and at Trump’s expense AND invite the other candidates to attend to boot.

The press would go wild talking about this for days and the people would go wild for Trump doing stuff like this.

In fact, every time Trump is dissed, he should do something like this. He can afford it and the publicity would be priceless. Not only should Trump say things that are outside of the box, he should run a campaign that’s outside of the box. He can get away with because people are expecting it, the press can’t help themselves from giving it publicity, and the other candidates are stuck in traditional campaign ruts from which they cannot escape.

That would get Erickson’s co-host, Katie Couric, upset.

Trump: “Well, I sure didn’t mean she was menstruating. I mean, look at her. She’s an old lady. She hasn’t sat on a bloody saddle for a decade now!”

Not true, plus you disregard her ability to frame the argument against hostile interviewers, you disregard her abilty to fight and articulate the war between progs and conservatives. You just want to foolishly take out a great warrior on our side.

Meh. But you've done this before with Palin, why wouldn't you do it again?

Well, we do know in the past how the GOP establishment has hijacked the Tea Party movement. So I’m not sure what to make of this.

Very shi++y!

Hmmm.
I don’t recall the GOP dumping McCain after he called his wife the C-word.
