Trump dropped from major event over blood comment

Donald Trump’s disinvitation marks the third day of controversy and fallout from his arguments with Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, following what Trump called “biased” and unfair questioning from Kelly at Thursday night’s Republican presidential candidate forum.

Trump contended on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that it’s former Florida governor Jeb Bush who has the problem with women, thanks to a comment Bush made that last week when discussing cutting off federal money for Planned Parenthood. Do we want to insult 53% of all voters? Erickson is hosting the RedState Gathering in Atlanta, and he revoked Trump’s invitation to speak.

He said Mr Trump’s comment about the journalist was “a bridge too far”.

“I have tried to give a great deal of latitude to Donald Trump in his run for the presidency”, Erickson wrote.

He pointed out that Erick Erickson had had to retract or apologize for some over-the-top statements of his own in the past. “Stand with @MegynKelly”.

Unfortunately for Progressives, Trump’s utter despicable personality is catching up with him, and the GOP is turning on him. He said 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 cross”.

WERTHEIMER: Thank you. First of all, let’s listen to what Donald Trump said on the cable show “CNN Tonight“. She gets out and she starts asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions.

Trump was expected to address RedState attendees on Saturday. “The point is women understood that comment and yes it is offensive”, she said.

Both Fiorina and Trump have marketed themselves as business executives, not politicians, but Fiorina said Trump is crossing the line.

Don’t worry about Rosie O’Donnell-apparently she can take it. She has before, and it all just seems more of the same for her.

Dulcy Forte of Austin, Texas, countered that Trump’s bigger sin was his refusal in the debate to pledge support to the eventual GOP nominee if it’s not him.

As for Trump, he told CNN’s Jake Tapper on Sunday that his comments were not intended to imply Kelly was menstruating. “Quit being who everybody wants you to be, and be who you are”, Staver said.

Some other candidates have at least tacitly acknowledged the tightrope they must walk with Trump’s supporters.

Unlike the Fox News debates that divided the 17-candidate field into two groups on crowded stages, the RedState Gathering in Atlanta offered several of those seeking the Republican nomination a half-hour all to themselves.

Other Republicans hit Trump on Saturday. “So I’ll say it, OK?”

Meanwhile, the flap has reached into Trump’s campaign operation. Friday (Aug. 7) he dug in deeper with CNN’s Don Lemon, relentlessly criticized Kelly’s handling of the debate.

Today, the question is how did Stone actually stop working for the Trump campaign.
