It's not "the left's cause" if it's the truth. Don't want people to draw that conclusion, don't present in such a fashion. Like I've said repeatedly, the right needs the female voters. Shens like this drives them away. Seriously, would you vote for a militant feminist? Quote HistoryQuoted:

Because the vast majority of hard questions were targeted at trump, then Cruz, the rest were coddled. And I don't remember Cruz supporters crying like bitches, slamming Megyn on social media with vicious misogynistic posts (done here as well), etc. And I certainly don't remember Cruz carrying on and on and on like Chump.  Seriously, we're taking up the left's causes and calling people misogynists and woman haters now? It's not "the left's cause" if it's the truth. Don't want people to draw that conclusion, don't present in such a fashion. Like I've said repeatedly, the right needs the female voters. Shens like this drives them away. Seriously, would you vote for a militant feminist? And let's not forget the hispanics. You don't win a general election by pissing off what could be as much as 60% of the voters. We're screwed. Hillary or Bernie will be picking the next group of the Supreme Court Justices. |

Just reading that is not the same as seeing it happen. Tone, inflections, non-verbal cues add to that. She was disrespectful to the leading Republican candidate…and even if Trump said those things, you respect the position, not the man. Cruz 2016. Lol what postion? "Frontrunner status"? lol |

Well, "important" is in the eye of the beholder. To you and me an AWB question is important. To a woman, the fact that a presidential candidate has made comments in the past like "She'd look good on her knees" might be important. Quote HistoryQuoted:

You guys base who you are voting for on what someone said about Rosie O'Donnell? That's important to you? "You said this about so and so 10 years ago, etc." Those kind of questions are "appropriate" in your minds? Well wouldn't you hold it against a politician if it came out in the past that he was for an assault weapons ban? Oh wait.  Is that what Kelly asked him? No. That would have been something important. Instead she brought up him calling Rosie O'Donnell a fat cow. Yeah, real important "tough" questions.
Well, "important" is in the eye of the beholder. To you and me an AWB question is important. To a woman, the fact that a presidential candidate has made comments in the past like "She'd look good on her knees" might be important. Would it be "important" for those "offended" women to read the response from the woman he was referring to? Former Playboy Playmate Brande Roderick said. "I’ve always had a positive experience around Donald. He’s always been encouraging. He’s never been disrespectful to me.” “I don’t condone men being derogatory, but I think he was just — he’s on television. He’s trying to be funny. I don’t think that he meant anything horrible by it.” I hope Cruz mops the floor up with MK tonight. How derogatory... Just doing my small part to contribute to the War On Women.

Quote HistoryQuoted: The problem is that all the questions were like that. It isn't the fucking Megyn Kelly show, it is a debate. You're supposed to get the candidates talking about the issues and differences between them. One or two questions about an embarrassing point is fine, but Megyn's conduct was demeaning and insulting not just to Trump, but to the American voter. This is perhaps the most important election in recent memory and all that ditz wants to talk about his herself. Let me help Megyn out with some questions. "Mr. Bush, Donald Trump has said that he wants to ban Muslim immigration in light of the San Bernadino and Paris attacks. Do you agree with this, and if not, how would you address the issue of terrorists coming in through normal immigration or asylum channels." "Mr. Christie, you have consistently pointed to your experience in government as making you better qualified than candidates like Donald Trump, Ben Carson, or Carly Fiorina. What specifically is it about your experience that would make you a better President then someone with private sector business experience?" Questions should be like that, so the candidates can talk about each other, not debate Megyn Kelly for 3 hours. It's supposed to be a debate, not a show about that bitch. She has 1 hour every night to stand on her own soapbox, and espouse her interpretation of the news. The presidential Debates is not the place for her personal opinions to be aired. |

Framing this as just a one question issue is disingenuous. She has been all over him and Cruz from the very onset of these debates. For what it's worth I thought Trumps answer to her question wrapped it up. Its on youtube. By not taking part he's simply calling Fox out on playing this debate process the same way liberals do to try to frame elections. Using feelz. Labeling people as misogynists or sexists or racists and then arrogantly ending all conversation. It's WHY people love him. Fox and MK are simply falling for it hook line and sinker.
I wonder how many times Donald Trump will be said in the coming debate. I should start a pool up for a friggin PMAG or something. |

I wouldn't say that's going in to an exactly "fair" debate. Very true. Kelly was a moderator and should have done her job. But she just couldn't resist inserting herself into the debate. 
Trump came down on her pretty hard and handled it well IMO. Regardless of whether the question was appropriate, I'm not sure how you can possibly characterize Trump's reaction as "handling it well". Which part was well handled, the "bleeding from her wherever" comment or the juvenile Twitter war? His answer at the debate. Watch for yourself Eric.  https://youtu.be/1Y9_LJj7A68
The hell of it is, I think Trump handled this question very well and came out looking good. What the hell is the problem? |

In either case he ends it by saying "I'm very confident that the electorate can know the difference and this won't be an issue"...the you let it go. Instead, after the debate Trump instantly jumped on twitter and started talking about Kelly "bleeding from the eyes, and bleeding from everywhere else". We might not believe that there is a war on women, but I assure you there are A LOT of voters that do believe that...so it's an important question when trying to gauge how a nominee will do in the general election and it's very instructive how the candidate dealt with being asked such a question. |

The reason Megyn Kelly hates and is unfair to Trump is simple. Megyn Kelly is Catholic. Donald Trump is Presbyterian, not Catholic and is the main non-Catholic GOP frontrunner. Number 2 on her GOP hate list is Ted Cruz because Cruz and his parents converted from Catholic to Southern Baptist and then to rub salt in the wound Cruz's father became a evangelical Southern Baptist preacher. Ben Carson is too low in the polls for her to waste air time belittling him. Carson is a 7th Day Adventist. Marco Rubio does not know whether he is a Mormon, Southern Baptist or Catholic because he goes to them all. Rubio is also too far down in the polls for her to waste air time trying to belittle him. Chis Christie is Catholic but too far down in the polls for MK to spend air time slobbering over him. So who is Megyn's pick for the White House? It is Jeb Bush who converted from Episcopalian to Roman Catholicism in 1995 and is sticking to it because his wife and her family are devout Roman Catholics just like Megyn Kelly. Do not take this reply to mean that I dislike any religious group because I do not but Megyn Kelly will do everything possible to help the front-running Catholic candidate win the WH.

The question was legit. Guess the should have had a male moderator ask it
Trump is opting out tonight because I'd guess he feels the risk of a screw up is less by not attending than having to answer the hard questions. If nominated the witch is going to confront him with all that he is not wiling to deal with now. She will eat his lunch. |

He does, and he's right. These are questions Trump should be prepared to answer, regardless of what the other candidates are asked. Especially if he's going to try to earn female votes. He's dug himself a deep hole with regards to his attitudes toward women, and it's a liability now. He needs to figure out how to address the issue if he wants to succeed. The Clinton campaign started the same old shit "war on women" before Trump threw his hat in. He is the perfect person to play that upon with his lack of finesse/rudeness and political training. |

I've asked this question in several other post, but no Trump supporters have bother to post a response...so I'll start a thread. This is the question from the FoxNews debate that started the bad blood and has led to this whole issue. I've posted the text of the question and as Trump supporters and others bashing FoxNews to tell me why this question was unfair to Trump. The line of questioning assumes that it is inappropriate to be disrespectful to any woman, no matter how she behaves. It is to say that women are above criticism, shaming, and mocking due solely to being women, and no matter how they behave. It was not a question, it was a call to lynch him for heresy. You missed the point. Being sexist means that the screw up is because the person screwing up is a female rather than human. IE: It must be that time of the month sort of dumb-ass comments. When any presidential candidate resorts to mocking, shaming, and innuendo rather than gunning at the content of the opposite sides argument, stance, or beliefs that candidate belongs in the sewer of the GD not in the office of the president. This is rhetoric 101 stuff taught in freshmen year. Trump is bringing in stuff taught on the 5th grade school ground. The sort of poo slinging Trump does pleases his audience but pisses off those caught in the splash - like Latinos, blacks, and women that I've counted so far. That's way over half of America ... way. You can speak the truth, you can argue, debate, hell even fight, without using the school ground antics of Trump. |

Because the vast majority of hard questions were targeted at trump, then Cruz, the rest were coddled. And I don't remember Cruz supporters crying like bitches, slamming Megyn on social media with vicious misogynistic posts (done here as well), etc. And I certainly don't remember Cruz carrying on and on and on like Chump. Seriously, we're taking up the left's causes and calling people misogynists and woman haters now? “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.” If you don't know what the left is going to throw a Trump you just haven't been paying attention has they've brought of the War on Women over a year ago. If you don't know how political vetting works the folks on your side - your staff - research and prepare to attack you surrogate for the opposite side. You practice and hone your responses knowing what's coming in the real battle. Trump is such a bully it makes it appear that he lacks the political training. He's not going to be able to throw his personality around forcing his way into the office. |

No because if Hillary gets the nomination she's going to ask him the same question. What's he going to do then? Refuse to debate her? 'ya think? Of course she will and if that's the first and only time he's ever had to address it he's going to get slaughtered. If he comes at Hillary with his "time of the month" line it will be the biggest landslide for the Democrats ever. |

This is the problem, Megan Kelly took cheap shots at everyone and turned what was supposed to be a debate into her own reality TV show. She fucked it up, Trump is the only one not afraid to walk away from that shit. All Fox had to do was replace her with any one of the hot Fox girls or competent guys, but they wanted a rematch and sold tickets to advertisers. The Fox Business debate was great, they could have used that crew again. Quote HistoryQuoted:

The Fox Business debate was great, they could have used that crew again. Why because trump demands it? Fuck him and the liberal past he rode in on! This is the FOXNEWS debate not the Fox business channel debate. They are using the crew picked from their top shows. Why the hell should they switch because someone is throwing a tantrum? |

How come they don't ask Hillary or Bernie questions like this in the Dem debate? Gee maybe because the DNC refuses to let fox host any of their debates.

It's not "the left's cause" if it's the truth. Don't want people to draw that conclusion, don't present in such a fashion. Like I've said repeatedly, the right needs the female voters. Shens like this drives them away. Seriously, would you vote for a militant feminist? Quote HistoryQuoted:

Definition of a debate: a formal discussion on a particular topic in a public meeting or legislative assembly, in which opposing arguments are put forward.
If it was a real debate question then why didn't the other candidates get to comment on that same question and Trumps response? What if she had asked Cruz that question first and what he thought about Trump calling Rosie a fat pig. Now that would have been a good start to a debate. I don't know why people get all worked up over these so called debates as you really don't get much out of them. I wish they would just ask a question and then let the candidates have at it. |

It's undeniable that bimbo is a sexist and offensive insult and not appropriate from a candidate for president. It's demeaning, degrading, and demonstrates that Trump is a rude bully. He's identified his button for Clinton to push repeatedly and Hillary won't be constrained like Megan Kelly is. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Has Trump never insulted a man before? The question makes his insults out to be sexist, when in fact they're just insults. It's undeniable that bimbo is a sexist and offensive insult and not appropriate from a candidate for president. It's demeaning, degrading, and demonstrates that Trump is a rude bully. He's identified his button for Clinton to push repeatedly and Hillary won't be constrained like Megan Kelly is. So Trump needs to make his insults more gender neutral? You take issue with his crude language and bullying. Fine. Her question, in that debate, may actually have demonstrated those things. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
She was not an impartial moderator and she specifically targeted Trump. She didn't confront anyone else about any other statements they'd made at all. Unfair moderation leads to an unfair debate platform. That's a load of crap. Re-watch the first 30 minutes of the debate. They all got tough uestions about their past, recent positions and/or statements. |
