Female Trump Staffer Dismisses Critics, Says Attacks on Megyn Kelly 'Fair Game'
NBC News ^ | KATY TUR and PHIL HELSEL

Posted on 08/09/2015 6:46:54 AM PDT by jimbo123

The female co-chair of Donald Trump's Iowa campaign is firing back against criticism that the real estate tycoon's comments about Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly were sexist and inappropriate.

-snip-

Tana Goertz, Trump's Iowa co-chair, said she did not interpret the comment in the same way critics have, and was not offended. "I've always been treated with dignity and respect," she said.

"I am a woman. I experience that every month. And it never crossed my mind. So I think people are just looking at pinpointing him as sexist and all these other things," Goertz said.

I mean, we fought to have equal rights, right? So it's fair game," Goertz said. "If a woman attacks Mr. Trump, he's going to attack back. Megyn is no exception."

Just another jab at Trump....

The ‘women’ in this audience knows what Trump meant, and it wasn't anything to do with her ‘periods’...

She needs to put on her ‘big girl panties’ and if she's going to play in the ‘cut throat arena’ of politics, then she best get over her self...

I don't care if it was Trump or some other ‘man’ (meaning not the p.c. sissies we have today) they would have said a lot worse to her...

Grow up, Megan, if your not ‘one of the boys’ don't play in their corral...

Speaking of the re-eruption of the word "bimbo", has The Hildebeast weighed in on any of this?

Isn't she the pin-up girl of The War on Womyn?

My wife (who is a lot more intelligent in every way than Megyn), agrees that the little tramp transmogrified herself into a liberal-like MSM “thing” that evening.

For us, she no longer exists.

Fine job, Fox.

Oh well, informed folks always go to Drudge first anyway.

It is also smoking out the pathetic PC types in the campaign like Walker Bush and Carley who couldn’t wait to dump on Trump

It's interesting to observe The Murdoch media slime balls desperate attempt to make there Paid Assassin Lib Kelly to be a victim in order to redirect the attention away from Murdoch and his hate for Trump and the obvious ambush .

First, You set up a phony smear about the aggressor who is getting destroyed for her actions everywhere and outing Fix Leftists News as just
a DC insider snake pit.
Second, paint her as the victim rather than the ugly hatchet woman she really is and have all your media minions pile on Such as traitor McCarthy at NRO or Erik a third tier blogger.
Third, demand an apology from Trump for not allowing Murdoch assassin to destroy him.
Murdoch and DC donor class want to change the media glare from obvious hit job to mean Trump.

It's not working Rupert and Ailes and Prebius !

Cruella Kelly’s Facebook page looks like a grenade went off. Not one supportive comment last time I looked. If I were her I would crawl under a rock.

Grow up Megyn, if you're not one of the boys, don't play in their coral

Exactly. A whole lot of real women support Trump, I suspect.

That picture is obviously fake, it shows a picture of a White N.B.A. player.

Poor Megyn is just a wittle girl. Donald is so mean to me mommy! He treats me like a boy and I don’t like it.

Meagan Kelly is like a cutsie little brat where her sudden Fox fame has gone to her head. Trump is a man of action and words and doesn't have time for the little girls playing little girl games.

MeGYN Kelly had no right to turn the Debate into a Reality Show. Grilling Trump about his run in with Rosie years ago was totally uncalled for since this incident has been hashed and rehashed. It was not news - the public is aware of it... And Most Importantly it is not related to the serious issues of the day ...For these reasons MeGYN Kelly’s assault on Trump was more than inappropriate it seems intentional to help derail Trump’s run to the White House.. All aspects of MeGYN’s behavior are unacceptable baiting and being a protagonist is not part of debate moderating. The American public was cheated out of a real ‘give and take’ between and among the candidates. It is not FoxNews and MeGYN Kelly’s prerogative to create a fiasco of such an important event with her trivial conduct.

What is this $hit? Some women think they’re ready for Ranger School, but they run screaming and crying over a stupid remark?

Not yet, but Salem Media Group and the cool kids in the alphabet media are willing to help them out.

No he doesn’t have time for it.

Meghan needs to put Yeb’s big boy pants on next time or whatever.

I wouldn’t say that.

He is telling the media to shove their political correctness up their collective ass and do something to help America.

Maybe he was looking for”she smelled blood in the water” but got his metaphors mixed up.
