Trump: 'I've been viciously attacked' by women ('When attacked I fight back')
The Hill ^ | 08/09/2015 | Mark Hensch

Posted on 08/09/2015 2:08:10 PM PDT by nhwingut

GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Sunday that he will strongly defend himself from critics, regardless of gender.

Trump rejected claims that he treats females who disagree with him unfairly.

“When I’m attacked, I fight back,” Trump told host Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“I was attacked very viciously by those women,” he said of female opponents his detractors say he has demeaned.

“What they said about me is far worse than what I said about them,” Trump added. “Am I allowed to defend myself? I want to get back to the country. We have such problems.”

Trump then said he will not apologize Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly.

“I consider an apology a big deal,” Trump said.

“I will apologize if I’m wrong about something,” he said. “But I don’t like apologizing when I’m not wrong.”

"Yea but you mistakenly assume that “conservatives” want an actual conservative leading the country. Clearly Mitt Romney proved they do not."

No, I know many of them don't care. Like we keep seeing, as long as he's better than Obama...

Megyn Kelly learned a life lesson about equality courtesy of Donald Trump: regardless of whether man or woman, if you take a swing you should expect a punch in the mouth. And now "po widdo Megyn" is crying foul.

I hope Trump never apologizes about it. He should have (VERBALLY) kicked her fanny so hard she'd spend the rest of her life having to part her hair to break wind. Make an example out of her for the other equality hags.

"This is what you wanted. You can't have it both ways. So shut up and take your lumps, or get your fanny back to the kitchen and make me a sammich."

Trump is sucking all of the electrons and ink out of the atmosphere.

It's fun to watch.

It isn’t just Kelly. The moderators were all juvenile, the questions were pretty shallow and smirky.

Fortunately most of the candidates refused to take the bait, and most of them presented themselves well. Whatever the stupid question was, they generally managed to use the moment to talk about what they believed in. The difference between the quality of the candidates and the quality of the moderators was striking. This was true in the first debate, but it was especially true in the second prime-time debate.

And thanks to Donald, the people who favor amnesty had to at least pretend to oppose it.

In future, though, we need a better class of moderators. These were an embarrassment. Not just Kelly, all of them.

Can you imagine how he'd submit if he ever had to negotiate with Putin?

Very original. Jeb! said this yesterday. Followed today by Karl Rove, Brit Hume, and the rest of the FOX News clowns

How could they know he would say something today? You say that Trump copies those guys on his comments a day in advance? I call B.S.

Trump defends himself but he can’t defend
conservatism. He hasn’t quite figured out
what conservatism is just yet. If he does
and shows it he just might pique my interest
even though his history is all over the map.

Must have been so painful.

Donald trump must have bled a lot from that “vicious” attack.

Right now we don’t have that luxury to play the game of “Who is more conservative.”

We have to get that wall built, stop this invasion by illegals, and get this country producing things again, then we can worry about who is more conservative.

I agree with you. And the problem is that most of the candidates running are squishy on the border, the ones who aren't openly for amnesty have all spoken up for it at one time or another. There are only a couple of people on that stage who can be relied upon to actually secure the border. Out of seventeen, only maybe two. Cruz, and Trump. The rest have spoken for amnesty, though at the moment they are all suddenly against it. Even Jeb was pretending to be for securing the border, and we all know where he stands on that issue.

Trump has forced everyone to pretend to be against amnesty.

I use the analogy of Solidarity in Poland.

It was a very wide coalition of people with all kinds of different political viewpoints, who united for the common cause. Then once Poland was free again, everyone went back to their corners and started anew.

And how do you suppose that happens without a conservative at the helm?
