Banned Donald Trump says: I was talking about Megyn Kelly's NOSE! Tycoon declares war on 'politically correct fools' who kicked him out of GOP conference for his 'sexist' attack on Fox host ...
His campaign said in release: 'Only a deviant would think anything else'
Donald Trump has lashed out after he was banned from one of the biggest gatherings of conservative activists over controversial comments he made about Fox News host Megyn Kelly.
In an interview with CNN on Friday, the GOP frontrunner appeared to imply that Kelly, during a televised debate, 'unfairly' grilled him on his history of insulting women because she was menstruating.
He remarked that there 'was blood coming out of her... wherever', sparking outrage and causing RedState's Erick Erickson to boot him off the high-profile Georgia event's line-up.
But now, Trump has taken to Twitter to hit back at his critics, writing: 'So many "politically correct" fools in our country. We have to all get back to work and stop wasting time and energy on nonsense!'
In a later post on Saturday morning, the presidential candidate added that his remarks about Kelly were not made in reference to her menstrual cycle - but were actually referring to the host's nose...

I’ve always thought the way FoxNews focuses the cameras on the women’s legs with short skirts is sexist. They also show a lot of cleavage. I don’t think it is appropriate in a business environment.
I don’t know how many times they played that Miley Cyrus segment with her twerking and such.
They only have a few real women journalist on Fox. Two that impress me are Catherine Herridge and Jennifer Griffin.
“the GOP frontrunner appeared to imply that Kelly, during a televised debate, ‘unfairly’ grilled him on his history of insulting women because she was menstruating.”
Not really unless one things menstruating entails blood coming out of eyes.
This report is particularly deliberately misleading in omitting Trumps full statement (about blood coming out of her eyes - implying anger or hatred).
How about a chair ?
(Or Britt Hume's lap)
I thought it was eye:
“Don’t forget that the only two things people read in a story are the first and last sentences. Give them blood in the eye on the first one.”
- Herbert Bayard Swope quotes
Meghan - used by the elites.
With the cocktail party before the event and Trumps intolerance of the use of alcohol and drugs. It was suggested that the bloody eye and nose may have been a message to MK that he recognized her bloodshot eyes and coke nose.
Wonder if there are picture or selfies people have taken
Whose nose is that, Joe? LOL!!!!
If your co-worker accused you of the same things Megyn accused Trump of, you might feel like saying something like Trump did.
I looked up the incident Megyn was talking about and found it was completely out of context. It was a setup line on the “Apprentice” show. The Playboy Apprentice said she wasn’t offended, can’t even remember the incident, and thought Donald was a good person. If Megyn really was bothered by it, she could have asked her about it before going on television with it.
I think Trump talked about her as he would a man. I guess that was his mistake, thinking she would take it like a man, and not play the victim. He said the same thing about Chris Wallace. I don’t hear anyone complaining about that.
They didn’t ask Don Lemon what he thought about the incident. It was his show and he never asked Trump what he meant by it.
Just went to her FB page.
I remember her followers numbered over a million.
Number now down too 800k
I just find his choice of words strange. I would have cheered him on if he just said she’s a bitch and be done with it :-)
The women are the majority of those supporting him.
I am amazed at the ratio. I would say at least 60% positives are from females.
Obama has lowered the bar on that one. He says and does anything he wants to do, so why can’t Trump as well?

Id feel like it and then edit myself because Im subject to rules in a work environment. Unless I didnt like my job and wanted to be fired.
Chris Wallace as far as we know is not subject to bleeding every 28 days.
Overall I like the Donalds bluster but if this is where hes going to end up at I dont see him being part of a social contract among citizens. I want a leader with humility and with the kind of respect that Dr. Carson talked about last night and that our forefathers dreamed for us. A leader tending towards that kind of abuse could be a frightening despot.
Let me start by saying that I do not trust Trump completely. I think he could still turn out to be sailing under a false flag.
“Explain, Trump, why acting as such an egotistical blowhard who crudely insults just about everyone who offers any criticism makes you worthy of the office of POTUS?
1. An egotistical blowhard may be just what we need. Many egotistical people are very competent, and many major historical figures have been blowhards. It’s just not a disqualifying fault.
2. In today’s atmosphere of more-or-less veiled insult, an open, honest insult is like a breath of fresh air. Besides, what has he said that isn’t true?
I want a president with the stones to say, to the ayatollahs, for instance, “You are a pack of murderous whackadoodles, and you will not remain in charge of a country. Here’s the new ‘Iran Deal’ for you: look out your window and see if you can spot the Tomahawk before it hits you in the nose.”
3. Does he really react to every criticism with insult, or does he return insult for insult?
If he is who he says he is, he’s the best candidate. But is he?
I call it a smear campaign. When they start making stuff up like this, it's a smear.
