Jeb Bush: Trump Should Apologize

FOX News correspondent Megyn Kelly was grilling Donald Trump on the many times he’s insulted women.

Trump had already called out the station’s moderators for asking “unfair” questions. It deserves more, not simply because of what it tells us about Trump’s attitude toward women – who, by the way, account for over half of voters – but about his fundamental fitness for the office he seeks.

“So many “politically correct” fools in our country”.

Republican Party operatives have been furiously trying to improve outreach to women – particularly young, single women – ever since.

Trump has repeatedly mused about mounting a third-party run – a right-wing nightmare scenario that would splinter the conservative vote and virtually guarantee Democrats the White House.

Senator Rand Paul seemed to struggle, and appeared at times to be overly eager.

In a field of 17 candidates, Trump’s poll numbers are impressive.

Kathleen Ronayne reported from Seabrook, New Hampshire. In the national polls, his nearest rivals are drawing half or less of his support.

Trump, of course, doesn’t shy away from controversy himself.

Trump’s anti-Fox tweet storm: After sparring with the Fox moderators during Thursday’s debate, Trump stayed up late and attacked them on Twitter, directing most of his ire at Kelly.

Joining the dubious “birther” movement, Trump fought to get President Obama to release his long-form birth certificate in April 2011. He got a big laugh when, as Kelly quoted his words, he interjected, “Only Rosie O’Donnell”.

Connie Thomas, executive of a health care consultancy, said Trump went “too far” in the CNN interview. Cohen described this as an “insidious” attempt to spread the perception Trump lost the debate.

He could have expressed – if not contrition; it is fanciful to imagine that emotion, feigned or real, in the Trump playbook – at least some understanding that what is appropriate on “Celebrity Apprentice” might not be fit for the campaign trail or, heaven forbid, the Oval Office.

Fiorina was also seen as the clear victor according to a measurement of how often her and other candidates’ names were searched on Google during the earlier debate.

But Ailes-and his prize anchor Kelly-is a different animal all together.

In the description on PCT2Respect’s Chrome web store page, Clark writes that the extension “changes the text “political correctness” to “treating people with respect” on webpages, making the web a slightly better place”.

Former MSNBC host Abby Huntsman, a daughter of the 2012 Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman, tweeted that Kelly “is pretty darn bad ass”. If they’re determined to take him out eventually, there’ll be plenty of time to do that this fall.

Nevertheless, the notion of Fox being at “war” with Trump has taken hold.

“It’s not easy with 10 people debating”, said Jeb Bush, who spent Friday on the New Hampshire coast before an evening town hall.

One of the most memorable moments of the debate was the first one.

Bush, who was less forceful on the stage than some of the others, lacks the freshness of a Kasich or Rubio or Walker.

Walker makes as strong a case as anyone that he is a fresh face, a Washington outsider and a results-oriented politician. That ignited a political brushfire that party leaders struggled to extinguish. You also hurt their children. That’s about all any of them could have expected from the first debate. His campaign said “only a deviant would think anything else” about Trump’s comment about Kelly. They said they stood with the journalist.
