The funny thing is, he had every opportunity to talk about those things he wanted to talk about. He CHOSE to use his time attacking her for asking pertinent questions. He could have said "instead of digging in to why I said those things, I want to tell you how my jobs policies will help women in the workplace" or whatever. He CHOSE not to use his time talking about those things though. Don't blame her for that. Candidates frequently answer questions with what THEY want to talk about instead of what was asked.

How long is this nonsense going to drag on? I would think a candidate would be more concerned about telling us what he or she is going to do to solve some of the problems of the country instead of this. No, Kelly should not apologize for anything.

He's supposed to be releasing his policy proposals sometime this week. And I agree that Kelly shouldn't apologize. It would make her look like a victim and that is something she does not want.

He's a joke. Republicans need an actual candidate, not this useless idiot.

I'm starting to warm up to him. He's not a politician, he's a businessman. One that won't hold back.

He is still surging in the polls. Perhaps people are just sick and tired of the same old politicians.

He's surging in the polls because people like to be entertained by clowns. They like going to the circus, but wouldn't bring a clown home with them.

They taste funny.

You're wrong. He is surging because he's not coddling people. That's what we need...

It means she's hoping if she calls him enough names we might all change our minds about him as POTUS.

I sure am. But I am looking for someone who treats the process with the dignity and respect it deserves. If he can't handle some difficult questions from a news reporter who shares his ideology how is he going to handle a world power who does NOT share his ideology - and that world leader may have a finger on the button. News reporters don't.

I appreciate his "say anything" attitude. But I don't think he is taking the process seriously. He needed to answer her questions.

Ok, but why is her 'process" the right one? It's the process that has been followed for a long time, and our political system has been screwed up for a long time. Perhaps it is time to change that process.

Kelley started the debate off on the wrong foot with Trump. Maybe if her first questions were not about his dispute with Rosie O'Donnel, he would have taken her more seriously.

I agree. Fox set the tone with that one. I think it may have been a fair question... that came later in the debate. But not right out of the gate.

I agree. We are sick to death of weak, mealy mouthed cowardly, whiny, sniveling, apologizing men. Geez.

I agree that Kelly's questions were idiotic. I didn't like them. I thought they were stupid questions. He should have just brushed on by and then started talking about what he plans to do if he was Potus and not take the bait. But, the fact that he can be baited so easily is a bit disturbing.

msrock · Guru

It was pretty clear from watching the debate, the post debate and the "focus group" commentary on Fox News last Thursday, that Fox wanted Donald Trump taken out. Someone, somewhere at Fox gave the order, and they really tried their best to accomplish that goal. I'm glad its backfired.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

That's the funny thing about Americans. We dont' like to be told how to March.

Ohfour · Hooker

The ultra conservatives are defending Trump. Savage, Levin...those type of people. The base will listen to them. I like Megyn Kelly, but this is not going to turn out good for her...

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

She did nothing wrong. As I said, the questions were dumb but oh well. Trump will probably move past this and she will too. But, maybe people just like Trump enough to give him a pass.

msrock · Guru

They'll both be fine. This is all pretty much over.

Yes, I watched it too. I hope she just moves on. He should move on. It won't hurt her. She isn't running for office. But, he needs to stop focusing on crap and tell us WHY he would be a better Pres than Obama or Hillary.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

I think we have some really great new non political contenders for office. I think Carson is a breathe of fresh air too. He's not a namby pamby. He's not going to be bought and sold. However, I think this Trump Circus overshadows some of the other really great contenders. I didn't see the first debate but I hear Fiorina did a brilliant job.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

Yeah, you don't accomplish what Carson has accomplished by being a namby pamby.

I would take him seriously if he did that. There's a difference between being politically correct and being a decent human being with manners. Even if he doesn't like a question or thinks it's rude or unfair he should just use it to his advantage. He could have easily said, "I have had my differences with some people in the past, both men AND women, but I don't favor one over the other. I expect you to work hard and do your job no matter what sex you are. And that is a problem with our country today. For example, look at the IRS..." There were so many ways he could have used that question to his advantage. I would actually take him seriously if he quit this name calling and side show and acted like a grown up. And I don't care how much money he has.

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

Well said NJN.

Ohfour · Hooker

I PERSONALLY love Ben Carson. I do not think he would be a good president though...

Thanks. You can send donations to my campaign fund!

See, if he had said that and Megyn had pushed it further he could have answered, "I will say I have very high standards for the people who work for me. That being said, if someone in the past, present, or future has an issue with my behavior or something I have said to them they need to bring it to me for discussion. We will air it out and come to a resolution."

There is not much left for someone like Megyn to say after that. My problem with Trump is not what he says but how he says it. I don't buy this not PC thing. You can say pretty much whatever you like but if you say it with class it will be well received. There's an old saying about something like "A good lawyer can tell you to go to hell and make you say thank you as you walk out." THAT is what we need.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

You know he could have even said, "I'm a tough businessman. I understand that in the course of doing business I make enemies. But that's part of business. I'm okay with that. However, it's that attitude that is going to help lead this country out of debt."

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

I think Trump should hire you!

Won't hold back or can't? Big difference.

I have no horse in this race, it does seem to me tht Megyn was baiting him and he could not contain himself so in essence, she got what she wanted.

Because no one asked what that meant. Your comments were a little flighty...

So, calling him a joke and an idiot wasn't calling him names? Alrighty, then!

It's called an analogy. Look it up. I was calling him a clown. People like clowns, but don't want one in their homes.

It's not rocket science. The other insults by the other poster were very clear. Perhaps if she calls him enough names (a joke and an idiot) you all might change your minds abiout him as POTUS?

Why are you so confused??

I actually think Trump COULD be a good POTUS. IF he buckled down, quit making this all about him and his clown show, quit playing games, and did what was good for the country and not him.

Um ok... but that wasn't the type of circus I was referring to. Although if you want to go in that direction, I thought Zumanity sucked. Worst show I've ever seen. The whole thing pretty much gave me the willies.
