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.”

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.”

The billionaire added, “You have done a great job, by the way. And I mean it.”

As always, quoting him is the best evidence of what he really is.

[Man from Oz]

You are sure on fire today. Your giddiness is oozing.

Trump didn’t cancel because of Megyn Kelly.
He did bc of Fox’s immature press release.

[McGruff]

I use to like Megyn Kelly also. But something has changed. And it ain't me.

[CrosscutSaw]

Once again Trump is exposed as a phony by his own words. Trump will say anything.

[elhombrelibre]

Thanks, we’re faced with laughing at a fraud or giving in and glossing over of this fraud. If we give in, we’re denying that we really are conservatives. Linking Machiavelli with malleable New York values, is not the answer to how we take back our country.

[elhombrelibre]

Uh huh. That’s what he said. They hurt his feelings by not getting rid of her.

[QuigleyDU]

You’re right, a Brilliant political tactician! By Monday his numbers will reach all time highs.

[elhombrelibre]

If people believe in Trump, and if people don’t really believe in the values of conservatism, he’ll rise.

[elhombrelibre]

It’s also considered bad form, vulgar, to note anything from Trump’s life, his biography. He’s to be considered as unconnected from his very sordid life.

This is trumps weekness, his doublemindedness. The MSM has enough video of trump saying two or three different things about the same subjects. He will be seen as a fool in the run up. The dem will beat him handily.

[goodwithagun]

Kind of like obama.

[Fai Mao]

Does the concept of courtesy and self-depreciating comment used to compliment someone else not occur to anyone but me? What about saying something you know isn’t true just to be nice?

“Really guy, we couldn’t have done it with out you” (Even though you could have)

“Oh Sarah, I couldn’t have made made that cake. You’re such a wonderful cook” (Even though it was awful)

[Maverick68]

So NOW we’re supposed to be worried about contradictory statements from a candidate as if EVERY FREAKING POLITICIAN in the country doesn’t do it?
Seriously, I love Ted Cruz but I FREAKING LOVE what Trump is doing to the system.....tear the freaking thing down, Donald....

[elhombrelibre]

Yes, they're cut from the same cloth personality wise, and until recently they were politically close. See the link.

[ncpatriot]

Exactly. Look at the timeline.

As usual, CNN is also spinning this saying that Trump is not doing the debate because “MK treated him badly”

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

I can see the ads with Trump lavishing the Clintons with endless praise from here. They have enough to fill the airwaves with nothing but Trump endorsing them for the entire final month of the campaign.

[Dr. Sivana]

I use to like Megyn Kelly also. But something has changed. And it ain't me.

Assuming she's the one with longer hair in that picture, she put on weight.

[Political Junkie Too]

You woke up a perfectly good sleeper ID that was last used in 2012 for this?

[QuigleyDU]

Keeping Hillary out of the White House is the goal. Trump is the only R. candidate with any real chance of doing that.
