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I have rescinded my invitation to Mr.Trump.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.”

You're the one who has dissembled, not me, and I've described how and given evidence to back it up.
The media including FoxNews thinks we are to stupid to pick the next President, they will do it for us. All politically correct, dressed in the pretty little suit they picked out. Trash Trump and you get politically correct Hilliary or Jeb.
The PC media, the GOPe and the Dims are mouthpieces of those few who own our political system and political correctness is their leash. They have just barely started on Trump and some FReepers are helping our enemies tear him down. Do you really think they are going to let sweet Cruz be prez?
Trump is a firestorm, burn their stinking house down now or live under them another 8 year’s. Next we will be having ISIS over for tea at the White Hut negotiating our future.
The whole rotten system is about money/Mammon, Trump threatens that.....trillions of dollars are at play here. Satan has bought millions with cash, sex and power. Nothing has ever changed, man is a sinner. I don’t like Trump because he is the perfect conservative, I like him because we need him, need him to burn the whole stinking system down, he is a fighter who will burn their house down or go down trying.
I can see the shaping already happening, and the end being Hilliary on her knees before satan in the White House. And the morons on the right and the left wondering how that ever happened.
You’re nuts.
And you're calling me nuts.......this might get fun soon.
Fiorina is a Big Government Statist! — Jim Robinson (5/25/2010, 5:21:20 PM)
She’s [Fiorina] an abortionist. I’m dismayed that Sarah lowered herself to endorse her. — Jim Robinson (5/14/2010, 5:21:20 PM)
Bye.
That was my take also. It never occurred to me that he was referencing a woman's anatomy. It seems to be quite a stretch and requires someone whose mind is already in the sewer.
BREITBART.... EDITOR ALEX MARLOW:
FOX NEWS ‘TRYING TO TAKE OUT TRUMP’ FOR GOP ESTABLISHMENT
“Fox is positioning themselves as a centrist network, as an establishment Republican network. They’re not interested in Donald Trump and his supporters. His supporters are grassroots conservatives”
( My take is I believe this true...especially since they pushed Carly immediately ahead from tier two....she is most definatly establishment and a favorite/coached of Karl Rove...then Fox’s auduance took Trump further down...so who came out on top everybody is talking about? Carly Fiorina who wants the VP poisiton and the RNC wants her there as well.)
YOu know, about three weeks ago, I thought, damn, Trump will run as a third party and Hillary will get in.
I think right now, he could win as a third party.
He knows they’re trying to screw him. We’ll have to see what the polls are showing in the next day or two.
Anything except Time and Drudge out there yet?
Erick Erikson is complicit in trying to bring Trump down, I hope people realize this.
CNN MSNBC AND FOX are running with this as if it`s a Trump scandal , and Erikson made it all the more easy for them
I hope Rush chews him up spits him out and never has him on again as guest host
that’s obviously what he was saying but any chance they get they’re going to try and take them down. Republicans & Democrats are the same (No matter what Rush says).
Boycott everything EE does. That site is a dump anyways
I don’t know anything about Red State or Erick Erickson, but to disinvite the GOP front runner a few hours before their meeting seems really unfair to the people who paid good money to be there and hear Trump speak.
If you don’t like Trump or don’t like what he says, then don’t vote for him.
But to encourage a civil war within the GOP and conservative circles seems like you’re just playing to the hands of the Rats and other lefties.
That's pretty much our only hope, since the GOPe candidates will work hard to insure Hillary wins... much like what happened with McCain and Romney. ALL of the GOPe and the media (Fox included) believes it's Hillary's time.
Thanks, caww!
And people wonder why I say that the so called ‘conservative media” heroes are as leftist as MSNBC.
Well on July 14 you were saying us evil purist conservatives that refused to vote for Romney should be shot, “Every . One”, so yea, you are nuts.
Hillary will never get into the White House. She has been going down, down, down.
Just saw on Twitter:I’ve confirmed last week’s rumor that @EWErickson is leaving @RedState, likely announcement next week http://t.co/qB6v10DcKb
Should improve the place considerably.
Which section of the GOP leadership will he now be interning for?
