Normally it would be accepted that you want the tough questions to get them out of the way rather than wait for the general election to be hit with them. But, this Republican party is not normal. An answer now requires all in loony tunes to satisfy the base, which means a bigger shift to sanity later. Trump doesn’t want to be vetted, he wants to be accommodated.
I want someone to ask Trump if he thinks that Kelly was acting for herself or for Fox News. If it’s for herself, then the question is why Fox isn’t letting her go for her, according to Trump at least, outrageous behavior. If it’s Fox, then he needs to explain what should happen next.
“If you’re explaining,you’re losing.”?
Really? We’re now focusing on Megyn Kelly instead of real issues, such as mass incarceration, police killings, etc., etc., etc.? It always comes down to how Miss Ann is treated.
C’mon. Trump is an ass, but anyone who didn’t notice a difference in the negative tone of the questions that were asked of him vs. the questions that some of the other candidates got is kidding themselves. As someone else pointed out, whether that was Kelly acting on her own (doubtful) or at the behest of Fox News (most likely) is impossible to know, but SOMEONE decided to go after Trump.
Not that he shouldn’t have expected it.
Attack? Nien, nien, I vas just following orders.
I have to disagree with you. It was missing calliope sounds. There were no jugglers. The shoes weren’t particularly large. I expected something more to go with the utter lack of any discussion of the real issues of our time.
I feel like it was a deliberate set up to pit the evil buffoon Trumpenstein against the fair maiden Megylicious. This the dumbass level that works in the reality vacuum of Murdochsylvania.
I feel it was a diliberate ploy to pit the evil buffoonish Trumpenstein against the heroic and fairhaired (and balanced) Megylicious. This is the dumbass level that works well in the reality vacuum of Murdochsylvania. The only thing that might have connected better with the target audience, and I’m just offering a creative suggestion, would have been to have had Megyrella sneak up behind Trumpzilla and clock him with a folding chair. Absolute Knuckledragger gold!
And Jeb…
She hit they wherever…they were weakest and they had blood coming out…all over.
" I’m in my sweet spot."
Offering up more ammunition –
No, it isn’t fair. Megyn is not running for president now or in the near future. Only candidates aspiring to the highest office in the world have to answer these kinds of questions.
MeGyn ------trying to emulate RachelMaddow…
“If you can’t get past me, how are you going to handle Vladimir Putin?” she asked.
You could do like GW Bush and gaze lovingly into his eyes.
I wonder if there is any tape of MK criticizing Candy Crowley’s performance as moderator in 2012. Maybe now she’ll have a bit more empathy?
Naaaaah.
C’mon. Trump is an ass, but anyone who didn’t notice a difference in the negative tone of the questions that were asked of him vs. the questions that some of the other candidates got is kidding themselves.
It went something like this:
Trump, tell us why you hate the GOP and women
Gov Kasich, tell us something homey and feel-good
Still, fuck all these people to hell.
Absolutely there was no question that Ailes gave the orders to go after Trump and something else no one else talks about is that Ailes hates Christie and they set Christie up so he was at the end and as a result the camera angle was very unflattering to Christie. I realize that may sound funny given his size, but that angle made him look even worse
Senator Rubio - what’s more important: Apple Pie or Mom? And please go over your allotted time if necessary…
I think we can discern them from her past stories and absurdities such as “Santa is not Black”, “religious freedom is under attack” or mindless obsessions which have been litigated such as the New Black Panther party.
