Republican frontrunner Donald Trump once complimented Fox News host Megyn Kelly for her performance moderating a GOP debate in 2011.
Trump spoke to Kelly in 2011 about his frustration with candidates refusing to participate in a debate he was set to host with NewsMax. The businessman implied the Republican candidates declining invitations to attend his debate lacked “courage.â€
He then heaped praise on Kelly.
“Do you really think you’re a better moderator than I am?†Kelly asked.
“No,†Trump promptly replied. “I could never beat you. That wouldn’t even be close. That would be no contest.â€
The billionaire added, “You have done a great job, by the way. And I mean it.â€
Yes they do, and lots more.
What he is a loud mouthed bully who is used to cowering people to get his way. Like a bully, when he doesn’t get his way, he runs like the baby he is.
And Trump will have to contend with his recent pro-liberal record.

[Uh huh. That’s what he said. They hurt his feelings by not getting rid of her.]
Did you even take the time to read Fox’s “press release”, or are you just having another fit of TDS??
I did. I read it. And they’re right. Trump won’t be able to pick and choose the reporters or the dictators in the world. He’ll have quit being a pansy, put his big boy pants on, and pretend he’s back on his crack military academy. He needs to grow a pair.

Ouch!!

He didn't say it.
If he said it he didn't mean it.
He was joking.
Everyone knows he was really trashing her.
He's going to build a wall, so who cares?
You don't understand his genius.
2011 is ancient history.
Reagan liked Megyn Kelly, too.
Yeah but this was back when Trump was a Hillary donating prochoice liberal...
That about covers it!
Does the concept of courtesy and self-depreciating comment used to compliment
someone else not occur to anyone but me?
*************
LOL..... Apparently people believe all the compliments they receive or either they
get very few..
Trump's political party. Twice since 2008.

You must not know what “growing a pair” really means. It DOESN’T mean being a puppet after the news outlet you are scheduled to be on blatantly insults you and your supporters.
If Fox or anyone had sent such a press release about Cruz, Cruzers like yourself would be just as pissed, and would be celebrating Cruz if he had been the one to skip the debate.
“The dem will beat him handily.”
That was always his objective.
which only came after Trump started threatened that he probably wouldn’t do the debate with Kelly on the panel. He was making all the noise and Fox called his bluff. Now he is out of the debate and I might have a chance to find out how some of the other candidates feel about stuff. Win/Win.
Well played - Truncated version of the Mega List.
“As always, quoting him is the best evidence of what he really is.”
Um... you mean “...what he really WAS”. 2011 is in the past. Things change over the course of four or five years.
Yep, Trump is not a great debater, yet he won all 6 debates. The politicians are good talkers, Trump is a doer.
