Donald Trump: Erick Erickson Is A ‘Loser,’ Megyn Kelly Was ‘A Mess’
And I’ve been very sympathetic to Donald Trump because so numerous people who have led the party astray refuse to even treat him as a legitimate candidate.
“I think Donald Trump is going to be an independent and spoil a lot of the races”. “That the first reaction of a candidate for president, when you get a tough question from a lady, is well, it must be her time of the month – and that was the clear implication, despite what they’re now saying – is kind of insane, actually”. “It just was wrong”, he said.
He fielded questions about how Southern conservatives can connect with his boisterous Jersey personality and said that Americans from all regions care about a sound economy, national security and individual liberty. Another candidate, Senator Lindsey Graham, applauded Erickson for revoking Trump’s invitation and said, “Enough already with Mr. Trump”.
When Wallace asked about Donald Trump’s bankruptcies, the billionaire had these nice words to say about his company’s lenders. “Blame Erick Erickson, your weak and pathetic leader”, according to a campaign statement.
Trump had bragged that he could buy politicians, including those on the stage with him. One of the most-replayed clips from the evening is an exchange between Trump and Kelly over Trump’s use of demeaning language to describe women with whom he disagrees. You know why? She didn’t have a choice because I gave.
Trump also took to Twitter to defend his statement, adding that “political correctness is killing our country”.
All eyes are on the next opinion polls to see if this will halt Mr Trump’s momentum as the improbable Republican front-runner.
“As much as I do personally like Donald Trump, his comment about Megyn Kelly on CNN is a bridge too far for me”, Mr. Erickson wrote on Red State late Friday night.
“Only Rosie O’Donnell”, he said before the crowd’s boisterous reaction.
All political campaigns are vulnerable to reverse-bandwagon effects: You lose points in a poll, or a primary, and you start to look like a loser.
“Are (the candidates) relieved?” she said.
During the debate, Trump acknowledged making such comments – but only about O’Donnell.
A review of Trump’s writings, televised interviews and Twitter feed show he’s long used harsh language to describe women – and occasionally men. Trump was then called out by moderator Megyn Kelly for his offensive remarks and tweets about women.
Repeatedly asked what he got in return for his donations, Trump said: “With Hillary Clinton, I said be at my wedding and she came to my wedding”.
