Trump Attacks Megyn Kelly As A ‘Bimbo’

Fox News and Donald Trump are getting divorced. Trump was not happy at being targeted in Fox’s debate last night and, predictably, he’s not holding back. He called Fox's Megyn Kelly a “bimbo” and Frank Luntz a “slob.”

In addition to Kelly’s “Megyn Moderator Moment” of confronting Trump in a debate question about having called women “fat pigs, dogs, slobs and disgusting animals,” (which nobody should be fooled into thinking represented her “independence” from Fox), a Kelly File show immediately following the debate showcased a Frank Luntz focus group “overwhelmingly turned off by Trump at GOP debate.” That was the headline of a Fox News Insider post, not my description. By the way, we have previously found some fishy goings-on with Luntz’ focus groups and that he has deceptively deceptively skewed their makeup.

According to BuzzFeed, Trump told reporters after the debate, “(T)he questions to me were not nice, I didn’t think they were appropriate, and I think Megyn behaved very badly personally.”

Later, Trump took to Twitter where he attacked Kelly as a “bimbo” in a retweet and calling her “totally overrated and angry” in another tweet.

On Fox & Friends this morning, The Donald went after Luntz. “This slob that you have on your show, what’s his name? He does the focus groups,” Trump said.

Cohost Brian Kilmeade defended his colleague, saying, “Listen, he’s not a slob, he’s a good guy, Frank Luntz.”

“I don’t like him,” Trump retorted.

Later, after Trump complained that debate moderator Bret Baier’s opening question about running as a third-party candidate was aimed at himself (which it undoubtedly was), cohost Steve Doocy used that as an opportunity to press Trump on the subject again.

But the Fox/Trump divorce is at least somewhat amicable. And it’s quite possible they’ll kiss and make up in the future. Kilmeade ended today’s interview by saying, “We miss you on Mondays,” and Trump saying he misses them, too.

Watch it below, from the August 7 Fox & Friends.

That’s more than acceptable to me. Look, I don’t know you, you could be a stand up guy with a different opinion of events. I’m fine with that but I have kind of a short fuse, always have and I doubt that at 72 I’ll change. If I perceive an attack, whether verbal or physical I immediately respond. So let us start from square one, call it our beer summit and end this war of words.

OK, I’m going to step in now and ask that you cut out the personal attacks. William Blanke, If you want to comment constructively about the thread or criticize me constructively, fine. Otherwise, we get that you don’t like us and there’s no need to tell us again about your feelings for us, no matter how many different ways you phrase it.

“Do get a fucking life child.” Hey genius, is that supposed to mean something? Your going to lose your school marm rating junior. Lol. Our not that bright but you are entertaining. Such a command of words. Like ALL Liberals if you can’t answer questions or win a debate, resort to your potty mouth. Too funny.

A few years ago Megyn Kelley on the Howard Stern show had zero problem taking about her husbands penis,her breasts,and having sex in the third trimester now she has the Gaul to bring the war on women a non issue into the most important presidential debate in years instead of attacking Hillary or Obama she’s viciously attacking republicans Megyn Kelley is a POS phony

“I’ll post where and when I like, children do not give me instructions.”

That’s a shame, Billy; you sound as though you could use the advice of someone more mature.

To quote W.C. Fields (Google the name and learn something) “go away boy you bother me”. I’ll post where and when I like, children do not give me instructions.

“Go about your business junior, you bore me.”

If you’re so bored, Billy, why do you keep replying?

“You lack independent thought and belong right where you are with your arm raised in salute of your master.”

Anyone who thinks Dr. Carson is ready to be the nation’s VP (solely on the basis of his having scolded the POTUS at a prayer breakfast) has no business talking to someone else about “lacking independent thought” . . .

You need to put on your little starched and pressed brown shirt and line up with the rest of the goose stepping clones. You lack independent thought and belong right where you are with your arm raised in salute of your master. I have no interest in trying to communicate with a brick any longer.

Well, if you were familiar with the technology of auto-correct you would understand that at times the auto isn’t correct. I thought that you might have a point or position to defend, however as is usual for the Lberal mind, all you can do is throw out insults and play English teacher with a computer program. So I can only assume that you are incapable of stating said position and have resorted to typical nonsense. Go about your business junior, you bore me.

“Obama would be, in that case, functionally illiterate. Kind of like you.”

This from the one who started his latest blathering with:

“I he to repeat myself for the leading disabled.”

I’m not even going to try to understand what the poster is trying to say here. It’s probably just a waste of time, as is the rest of this poster’s statements.
Go away, William. You’re only proving the premise of this site.

I he to repeat myself for the leading disabled. Obama was a State official and did nothing. He was in the U.S. Senate and did nothing except run for President. Because you went to the school does not mean that you learned anything. Obama would be, in that case, functionally illiterate. Kind of like you. Dr. Carson not being a politician is one of his greatest attributes. You obviously think that time in a position equates to experience or knowledge, Obama blows that theory away.

@ William Blanke: “While it’s true the VP has to take over in some rare circumstances, Dr. Carson is more qualified them Obama ever was, so I don’t see that as a problem”

LOL — OK, let’s recap:

Carson: no elective office experience

Obama:
- IL State Senate, 1997-2004
- US Senate, 2005-2008
- US President, 2009-present

though I understand why you “can’t see that as a problem”; it’s hard to see anything clearly with your head up your arse.

And Billy, please stop repeating yourself — what you’re saying makes no more sense the second time . . .

Isn’t it odd that the supporters of the “last place media” are always predicting the end of the big dogs in the arena? They are never correct and their liberal/ideological media just keeps floundering and loosing viewers and listeners. Even with Grorge Soros’ money can’t buy them rating. Fox and Linbaugh are still the leaders and will remain the leaders. Soros, Gates, Buffet and the rest of the liberal billionaires have failed in buying viewers and listeners for the losers and never will.

If Fox has a problem it is that too many of its commentators are pushing their personal establishment or racial favorite as opposed to pushing for a tough, outspoken non-PC correct leader to fix Americas problems. All and I do mean all of the Fox talking heads predictions have been wrong. Underestimating Trumps connection to mad Patriots is a mistake. Showing Trump is a mistake as well. The Red State organizers need to tread softly lest they invite a third party run.

Considering that the Democtat/liberal/socialist machine built the community organizer in chief, Republicans building Trump ain’t all that bad

We’ve said for months that the Foxies’ karma was coming. This week, their chickens have come home to roost. A large percentage of their conservative viewers-or former viewers-have tuned them out. Barbie Kelly’s ratings will take a hit due to Trumpster’s attack on her.

Jane, friends of “Fox” will side with the network, others like Rusty the Radio Clown, aka, Rush, and Marky will side with Trumpster. Erickson and others are not going to burn their bridges with the Foxies. They won’t risk alienating the suits by attacking the network.

Conservative talkers and commentators who attack the network and the mouthpieces will find themselves on the outs with the suits.

Grab that popcorn! It’s gets worse for the Foxies.

Coming down the pipeline:

1. Fox “News” in a panic
2. The knives are out
3. Hannocchio forced to take sides
4. Billy is disgusted

Interesting that Erick Erickson just canceled Trump’s invitation to his Red State conference out of indignation, apparently, at his jabs at Kelly. Yet over at the Red State blog earlier this evening, the commenters were all calling her every ugly name in the book. Look like some of those folks have dropped in here, too.

Fox News and Donald Trump are getting divorced.

Damn — it was bad enough Trump couldn’t keep two of his actual marriages together; now he can’t even keep an IDEOLOGICAL one, it seems.

But there’s good news, Donnie: at least this divorce likely won’t cost you as much as the one from Ivana did ($25 million)

@ William Blanke: Don’t you think that it’s about time we had a president who isn’t afraid to tell people like Putin to take a hike?

I dunno, Billy; I’m not sure that’s what Fox sNooze wants, given the numerous times they’ve gushed over Putin — whether it’s during his actions in Syria (http://www.newshounds.us/great_american_hannity_and_buchanan_heart_vladimir_putin_s_syria_actions_09102013), Donald Trump claiming Putin is “clearly the better leader than Obama” (http://www.newshounds.us/donald_trump_gushes_over_vladimir_putin_04142014), or even admiring his riding on horseback while shirtless (http://www.newshounds.us/hannity_mocks_obama_s_fitness_routine_slobbers_over_putin_as_rocky06052014)

Barbara S. and Wm. Blanke — according to Snow Snookie the Quitta From Wasilla… the VP’s job is to hang around the senate and open the hood and get in there and make policy if he so chooses.

Uncle Ben Carson ready to do that —?

Can Teh Donald cause Faux’s rating to dip?

If so, Megan Kelly better watch out.

Ratings are king. One can only stare up at so many ceilings in life, but ratings equal dollars, and they better stay put or heads will roll at Fox.

Can Donald turn the viewers against the Master?

When it comes to Trump — finally, something the republicans can say, “We built that”.

@william Blanke: If Carson isn’t ready to be POTUS, then he surely isn’t ready to be VPOTUS. One of the VPs main functions is to be ready to take over if necessary.

I don’t believe that Dr. Carson is ready for the a White House “yet”. How ever, he would make an excellent V.P. Right now. With 8 years experience in the political arena he would be a great President. Right now he is too easy going, with experience dealing with the political class, he would understand that tough talk and quick action he could take on the Sharks.

If any one finds support for Ben Carlson as anything other than a Fox commentator and/or abrain surgeon is obviously absent any idea what “thought” is!

Uhhhhh, it seems that some of the Fox base are a bit confused as to the intent of this article.
The only things that Trump has said in his whole campaign that make any sense at all are his comments about Megyn and Luntz.
