Fiorina on Trump: ‘Women understood that comment’
Trump’s Saturday statement also took Erickson to task and attacked him from all angles.
And several of Trump’s Republican rivals pounced. As it turned out, they would see only nine. “The female, it’s not antithesis, or it’s not competing, it’s a complementary role”, he said.
Despite Thursday night’s debate having solidified Donald Trump’s standing as a GOP frontrunner, he’s not backing off of a feud with Fox News host and debate moderator Megyn Kelly, who he calls a “lightweight” who is “highly overrated”. By Trump’s reckoning, the questions were evidence of an anti-Trump bias – and perhaps something else. But, she added, “If he did something wrong, he should be allowed to come and answer for it in person”.
After playing the video, Erickson continued his explanation.
US presidential hopeful Donald Trump has been barred from a major conservative event for implying he received hostile questions from a journalist because she was menstruating.
But on Sunday, Trump said only “sick” people or a “deviant” would have concluded he was talking about Kelly´s period.
“At this point, I mean, we’ve got to focus on our message”. This year, the annual event features fellow GOP presidential candidates Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Ted Cruz, Carly Fiorina, Mike Huckabee, Bobby Jindal, Rick Perry, Marco Rubio and Scott Walker.
And the letter from Stone, a former Richard Nixon aide who helped the campaign with debate preparations, also highlights concerns similar to those national Republican leaders have expressed over how the real estate mogul’s rise in the polls has proven a distraction from the 2016 race’s key policy debates. He described himself as a fearless warrior for traditional values, an alternative to the entrenched politicians he calls the “Washington cartel”.
Obama’s failures in defense are seemingly endless-Trump’s reminder of the Bergdahl prisoner swap seems like an eternity ago, followed by so much more-but warnings on donor influence resonate most deeply after the GOP’s handling of Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) for the White House. But somebody said, oh, you – you know what? “It could have worked in a different age, which is the age you’re talking about here”. “I’m running for president”.
Trump has flirted with the idea of a third-party run that would split the right-wing vote and potentially blow up its prospects of defeating the Democrats next year. Every subsequent question was about Donald Trump. Erickson uninvited Trump from the upcoming RedState Gathering, instead inviting Kelly to appear in his place.
But Renee Duffy was disappointed.
Trump took exception to Kelly’s line of questioning during the debate, when she asked him to justify calling “women you don’t like fat pigs, slobs, dogs and disgusting animals”.
From the stage on Saturday afternoon, Erickson asked Bush about the decision.
Kelly wasn’t deterred. “You once told a contestant on “Celebrity Apprentice” it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees”, she persisted. “When somebody hurts you, just go after them as viciously and as violently as you can”. “I’ll take your side on that bet”.
After the debate, Trump told reporters that he felt the moderators treated him unfairly.
“Eff your liberal Red State joke of a conservative group”.
“Due to Donald Trump’s unrelenting and offensive attack on Megyn Kelly and others, we are at a crossroads with Mr. Trump”. But look at what this guy said.
