Earlier this evening, CNN’s Don Lemon interviewed Donald Trump about the debate on Fox News Channel last night, and set off another Trump-related tempest. After noting that Kelly pushed Trump during the debate, and that she “pushed a lot of people” besides Trump, Lemon asked, “What is it with you and Megyn Kelly?” Trump’s reply was, er … colorful, to say the least [emphasis mine]:
TRUMP: Well, I just don’t respect her as a journalist, I have no respect for her. I don’t think she’s very good, I think she’s highly overrated. But when I came out there, you know — what am I doing? I’m not getting paid for this. I go out there, and they start saying this stuff [garbled]. But you know, I didn’t know there’d be 24 million people. I knew it was going to be a big crowd because I get crowds, I get ratings. They call me the ratings machine. So I have, you know, she gets out and she starts asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions, and you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her … wherever. But in my opinion, she was off base.
Kelly did ask Trump tough questions in last night’s debate, but she asked tough questions of Marco Rubio on abortion too, and of other candidates on stage as well. As the front-runner, Trump should have expected tough questions, especially given his track record of supporting nearly every progressive idea at one time or another, including Hillary Clinton being President. Kelly also asked Trump about his remarks about women, which appears to have particularly rankled him — and pushed him into validating Kelly’s premise in asking those questions in the first place. After all, it’s not often when a major party candidate takes a shot at a woman by reminding everyone of her menstrual cycle. I’m certain that will really impress women about their place in the Republican Party.
Trump was scheduled to speak at the Red State Gathering tomorrow, in the final slot at the event. Not long after these remarks, event organizer Erick Erickson announced that he had withdrawn the invitation:
I have rescinded my invitation to Mr.Trump. While I have tried to give him great latitude, his remark about Megyn Kelly was a bridge too far
That will undoubtedly anger some Trump supporters, but after last night’s debate performance and his thin-skinned whining afterward, I wonder if that group wasn’t already in decline. This might fire up the die-hard Trump troops, but suggesting that a journalist went after his target-rich record only because she was menstruating should be a disqualifier for most voters. It’s vastly worse than anything Todd Akin said, and will almost certainly have media outlets demanding responses from the other Republican candidates. It’s practically tailor-made for Democrats to hoist up the Republican War On Women banner, especially Hillary Clinton.
Get ready for plenty of Team Trump dog-in-the-manger, sour-grapes quotes in the morning, if not overnight. There may be some legitimate anger among a small group of RSG15 attendees tomorrow who wanted to see Trump at this event, but Erick has a solid case for not wanting to have this overshadow the event tomorrow, with more presidential candidates on hand to make their pitches. Erick will almost certainly address this in the morning, and we’ll see what the fallout is over the rest of the day.
Update: Carly Fiorina appears to be the first Republican candidate to respond to Trump’s remarks, perhaps fittingly so (via Twitchy):
That’s interesting, because Fiorina actually deflected a Trump question at her presser today at RSG15 by asking why the media wasn’t calling out Obama for his offensive comments about opponents of the Iran deal. Not this time, apparently.
But I also think that while Mr. Trump resonates with a lot of people with his bluntness, including me to a degree, there are just real lines of decency a person running for President should not trust.
His comment was inappropriate. It is unfortunate to have to disinvite him. But I just don’t want someone on stage who gets a hostile question from a lady and his first inclination is to imply it was hormonal. It just was wrong.
I have invited Megyn Kelly to attend in Donald Trump’s place tomorrow night.
Well, that would be interesting. We’ll see if she can swing that.

Of course it wouldn’t be the bat sh*t-crazy end of Twitter without at least one conspiracy theorist in the mix: @CarlyFiorina @megynkelly Trump is a plant by the Clinton’s to ensure Hillary wins. He’ll run 3rd party and hand her the White House.
— Ryan Schumacher (@NoChillRyan) August 8, 2015
After how most of the GOPe came after Trump, I would not be surprised if he flips them off now and start his 3rd party run. He knows how long that will take to do.
If the Clintons are that smart and Machiavellian than they deserve the White House. I say this as a Clinton hater.
One again, why did the tax cuts of Bush fail to keep the economy booming and why did Clinton's tax increase not destroy prosperity?
Because Bush did not decrease spending. He expanded social programs along with a huge bill for two wars. Big difference.
When you expand the size of the economy with tax cuts, but expand spending how much government spends, you get disaster. Same principle when you raise taxes and yet spend what you collect and beyond you get disaster. When you have Bush 2 economics followed by Obolo economics you have what we see today disaster.
Clinton raised taxes in 93. The GOP Congress curbed spending by balancing the budget 4 times. Clinton was a tax and spend Democrat. He taxed but could not spend. He needs to thank Newt for this legacy.

If the Clintons are that smart and Machiavellian than they deserve the White House. I say this as a Clinton hater.
Why are not the Republicans this clever?
Lol. Good point. Where are the GOP ruthless operatives?
The answer is quite easy IMO. They don't have the MSM in their corner. The one Obolo pretty much owns. So the Clintons better beware too.

Brent Wilson Megyn Kelly - Sad that you chose to attack people rather than just ask ask the important questions. You guys tried to set Trump up from the very first que question. What happened to fair and balanced?
After how most of the GOPe came after Trump, I would not be surprised if he flips them off now and start his 3rd party run. He knows how long that will take to do.
It might not work the way some think.
Keep in mind that Trump's show was largely concentrated in Blue states, primarily the eastern seaboard. I've seen audience breakdowns on Trump before, when he was threatening to run.
If conservatives are hungry for a win after 8 years of Obola (and they are), it could be that Trump is mostly capable only of drawing off Dem voters, not GOP voters. But given the Dem advantage in the states where Trump's fanbois are the thickest, it might only reduce Hitlery's advantage, maybe force her to campaign a bit more in those states.
So Ericson invites the homo activist Megan Kelly to speak.
I'm not sure that she accepted the invite. It was on short notice and, as a debate moderator, she couldn't talk much about the debate herself without disqualifying herself for moderating in later debates (FNC will host at least 4 more in the primaries and for the 2016 election).
So I doubt she accepted the invite. Not sure what RedState was going to do if she didn't show up.
I thought it was funny when Erickson tweeted, "I paid for that microphone and this is my show."
Trump might want to think twice about bashing up Erickson who is a regular CNN contributor. CNN could decide to have him as a moderator next month in their debate, for instance.
I knew you were to much of a pussy to see what he said. I guess you don't want the tr the truth. You'd rather bend over and take it up the ass from Bush then Rubio then C then Christie then Perry then Hillary.
You're a whore.
You're probably so stupid you think Trump made a comment on the apprentice ab about getting a BJ.
You have the establishment so far up your ass that it is poking out your front side.
So Ericson invites the homo activist Megan Kelly to speak.
Cuckservatives like Erick Erickson are big on inviting rapists and murderers into America; so one of Rupert's RINO's is actually an improvement. These cuckservatives deal in dishonesty, they've been peddling anti-freeze as wine; that sort of thing takes a dishonest person. I've seen these clowns lie about blood in the eye being about menstruation, that cuckold is a term used to describe Christians. These guys deal in lies; you cannot trust them; they've been liars for a long time, like calling amnesty for illegal aliens "earned legalization."

You think Trump is afraid of the fat boy?
Trump won the first debate and he will continue to win.
You didn't have a clue when you said Trump wouldn't file is financials. Then you showed you were really clueless when you said he wouldn't file his FEC paperwork. Then you showed what a moron you are when you said he was finished af after ripping POS McCain. Then you continue to dig deeper and deeper still.
According to you Trump would have already dropped out before the CNN debate.
I knew you were to much of a pussy to see what he said. I guess you don't want the tr the truth. You'd rather bend over and take it up the ass from Bush then Rubio then C then Christie then Perry then Hillary.

He needs to posture a lot; because what he's peddling is not very popular on Main Street. Carly Fiorina represents just the type of globalist RINO that he loves. Carly Fiorina's McCain tried to sell "The illegals are never going home, the jobs are never coming back; and we'll be in Iraq for 100 years;" and was unable to close the deal with Main Street. TrueCuckservative thinks Main Street will be more receptive in 2016; just need to change the packaging; but it't the same worthless crap they want to peddle. It's not the packaging; it's what's inside the package that sucks.
Carly Fiorina's McCain tried to sell "The illegals are never going home, the jobs are never coming back; and we'll be in Iraq for 100 years;" and was unable to close the deal with Main Street.
Fiorina wasn't even a marginal player in 2008. She was a major Romney surrogate in 2012.
I've never voted for the Stain. Can you say the same?
And I'd never vote for Trump either, for many of the same reasons. BTW, I didn't have anything to vote for in 2014 so I stayed home. I have stayed home or voted third party a number of times when I can't stand the GOP nominee, as with Dumbya in 2004.
It slays me that you guys seem to think I'm on a Republican state committee or something. But then you seem to need to believe that you are "speakin' Truth to Power" on this dusty little forum or some such idiotic drivel.
This broad Fiorina is a hologram. A fake. Wolf in sheeps' clothing. A hedge for Jeb. A totally manufactured candidate who is OBVIOUSLY following a script.
Lib, you.re usually on target. but this time you are dead wrong.
So "marginal" that she was fundraising chair for the RNC "Victory" initiative. That "victory" turned out about as well as her tenure at HP. She may be just the ticket for the GOP based on her track record as a proven loser; she epitomizes the values of the RNC.
The point is the tax increase under Clinton did not send the economy into recession as prophesied.
You should try using Carly Fiorina to make your point. Jorge Arbusto gave here a big tax cut; and she wiped out 30,000 American jobs. She tanked HP; and walked away with a 21 million dollar severance package!
I'd rather insult you and call you names. Because you shill for GOPe.
And he does not even have the honesty to admit. Most of his history is just posturing; because he knows the BS he's peddling isn't too popular on Main Street. Check out what his trade policies have done to your own state. His economic prescriptions are like drinking anti-freeze; he needs to be dishonest and package it as wine because it will not sell when sold truthfully for what it is.
After how most of the GOPe came after Trump, I would not be surprised if he flips them off now and start his 3rd party run. He knows how long that will take to do.
If he does, I'm with him.
If he doesn't, then the GOP will get the benefit of my vote for Trump.
Her NEW image, her NEW words of NEW wisdom are scripted and manufactured. Don't be fooled into buying the Fiorina Fenomenena. Yes, she sounds good...TOO good. Where's she been all this time??
Where's she been all this time?
Taking additional acting lessons. She's starting out her new acting talents with a new script in a role that offers her the opportunity to portray herself as president.
Hey, I get called a DEMOCRAT all the time! Which isn't true.
Also, a "socialist". Which also is not true. Socialists believe in state ownership of the primary means of production. I believe that the state should operate a robust social insurance program, and pay for that through taxation of the private economy, which produces its wealth through the private ownership of the means of the production (though I do think that the federal government should directly exploit the resources on federal land, and that actually would be socialism, as far as it went. But I don't think that the federal government should nationalize land in order to exploit the resources beneath it.
I saw her debate performance and her spanking of Chrissy Matthews. I liked what I saw.
So I said so.
But then I saw her overnight stupidity, piling on Donald Trump to defend Megan Kelley. Nope. Fiorina was an incompetent CEO, and now she's decided to pick the wrong side in a fight that I care about. Therefore she is garbage to me. She coulda been a contender, but she took the wrong side and I no longer give politicians the benefit of the doubt. Especially when they attack somebody I like.
She's a whiny bitch. We don't need a whiny bitch in the White House, especially one with her record of screwing Americans out of jobs.

Reasonable. You must have missed her reaction when Trump announced.
I'm like you in a way. If they attack Trump they are dead to me politically. At At least they way they are doing it now.
I thought it was funny when Erickson tweeted, "I paid for that microphone and this is my show."
I hope it's a sensitive microphone, then, so we can all hear the crickets.
Except that even if it is, we won't be hearing the crickets, because nobody is going to watch or pay attention. Trump was interesting. You've invited a bunch of boring, useless politicians, and a whiny cunt. Nobody cares about them or you, Erickson. You've jumped the shark.
Carly Fiorina was a crappy CEO. If she failed at running a company, she's certainly not going to do better running a country.
HP tossed her out. The stock took a big jump when she got the boot, just the news she was leaving did that. The US should take a pass on her "talents." Of course her proven track record as a loser is something the RNC establishment types can embrace.
I hope it's a sensitive microphone, then, so we can all hear the crickets.
Erick Erickson fits in with the proven RNC track record of losing; even when they win! The RNC is not about defeating the democrats; they are all about protecting the ruling class oligarchy.
For damned good reason! Since then she has attempted to found a new career in politics based on her touting her reputation as having been a CEO under the supposition nobody would look very closely. She started out as a secretary pounding a typewriter and answering phones then slicked her way upward. HP needs to return to having research engineers as Hewlett and Packard were to run the company who could "walk the halls" instead of empty headed goofs with spicy aggressive personality.
The point is the tax increase under Clinton did not send the economy into recession as prophesied.
The counter point is that is because the GOP Congress did not allow him to raise the taxes higher and expand government spending.
Taking more money from people does not fuel an economy; unless one thinks the Fed gov is a creator of economic growth. Increasing taxes puts more of the circulated wealth in the pocket of government. Unless that money is spent on military equipment and also infrastructure it is producing nothing towards GDP.
Even Obama's "shovel ready" projects did nothing to restart the economy.

That is bullshit and all over the place. Not only did you get your facts wrong about GDP and when the tax cut happened vs the contract with America - contract which was bullshit per the CATO institute no less.
The GOP said those exact tax increases - they did not reduce a higher increase in negotiations - would tank the economy and that did not happen.
How long are you going to believe the fairy tale that taxes affect the economy?
When he was an exec with the Texas Rangers he traded Sammy Sosa in his prime. Warning sign right there:)
Actually, I think we are due for a retired Flag/General Officer for president. Most know how futile these indecisive wars truly are and know how to run larger organizations and tell people what to do.
I would support Raymond Odierno if he ran. Would have to check his position on abortion but probably know where he stands on that as he is Catholic.

Among those who agree with Cohen about the tenor of questioning is … Trump nemesis Lindsey Graham? Huh?
“This was more of an inquisition than it was a debate,” Graham said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Friday morning. “It was a missed opportunity to talk about things that really mattered.”
Graham charged that debate moderators Bret Baier, Chris Wallace and Megyn Kelly were particularly unfair in their questioning of Trump, the outspoken billionaire who is leading many GOP polls.
“At the end of the day, ask the man a question that explains his position and his solutions rather than a ten-minute question that describes him as the biggest bastard on the planet,” Graham quipped.
