The problem is not so much with Fox news but in the eye of the beholder. Trump supporters scream that Megan Kelly is off the reservation because she commits an act of journalism on Donald Trump by quoting his own words back at him.You know, I don't think I'd have nearly as much problem with Kelly's question, if it was asked later in the cycle.
It was, however, the very first question of the very first debate.
If I was Trump, my answer would have been:
"Seriously? That is your first question of me? REALLY??? We have illegal immigrants pouring across the border, voting in our elections; we have an out-of-control President ruling by Executive Fiat; we have a crushing tax burden; a heinious and ruinous Obamacare program; government agencies going after good and lawful citizens and businesses, and THAT is what you ask me? ....(pause for effect)....Yeah. I called a woman ugly. NEXT QUESTION PLEASE."
Laz,
Only a fool would presume to lecture you on the mysteries of the fairer sex a subject on which you are the acknowledged expert. I can only say that these creatures constitute more than half of us, more than half of the voting public and what bestirs them to pull the levers next to the candidate' s name is a mystery that will probably survive the end times.
If Megan Kelly as a woman thinks that other women regard that as an important issue, even an issue to be addressed early (although not first there were several other questions before this one) in the debate then perhaps she knows something more about women voters than I do.
