Trump on Don Lemon
CNN ^ | 8/7/15 | Interview

Posted on 08/07/2015 7:31:07 PM PDT by proust

Trump was on Lemon's show, which runs opposite to MK's show. As he said, he's not complaining and is on the next thing.

I tuned out of MK’s show tonight for the first time. I wasn’t happy to do it. After last night, it was clear that she is more impressed with herself than informing her viewers.

Bingo! Fox is not what it claims to be. Aside from the veneer of “fair and balanced,” they are still pulling for the establishment rhinos.

Yep. I turned on CNN to watch Trump during her show and sent out a tweet that Megyn Kelly was doing a hit job on Trump tonight just the same as she did on Gingrich in 2012. I know the routine.

Does anyone actually think Trump didn't want to be asked that question? Insulting people and acting diva-like is Trump's thing. I thought people liked Trump for, "saying what he thinks?" Now we are supposed to believe his feelings are hurt to be reminded of this. Fox set Trump up with just the kind of questions he wanted.

Would you believe Trump's reality TV colleague Kim Kardashian would get huffy if asked about selfies?

Trump and the media are playing a large swathe of the public like a violin.

Kelly will end up with 3-4 times the ratings Don Lemon gets.

You’ll be able to check tomorrow on the ratings sites.

So I’m really not sure what your laughing about.

Has it occurred to you that CNN’s gayboy Don Lemon might be kowtowing to Trump because he knows “the Donald” would give the Democrats (whom he supports) their best chance to win?

He should go on his show twice a week. Don’t do anyone but Hannity, who treated him (as Sean does with all candidates) with respect.

Hey if Snooki and Jwoww “evolved” into conservatives tomorrow and “said whatever they think”, do you think the Trumpsters would consider either for President?

Don’t think Trump is thin skinned. He is fighting back. There is a big difference.

He is doing the counter spin so that whatever they tried to portray about Trump is negated by is counter spin.

He is very shrewd and definitely not thin skinned. e is a very very tough man and knows media very very well and knows what he needs to do to keep his image intact.

“Don’t think Trump is thin skinned.”

Me neither. Anyone that can do a brutal comedy central roast can’t be called thin skinned.

Much like Hillary has a war room to respond to what is said as a counter spin operation, Trump has a counter spin operation to set the record straight so that the media, in this case Megyn Kelly, do not define Trump in ways he does not want to be defined.

Here is a very specific case in point. Kelly accused Trump of making derogatory remarks about Rande Roderick a woman on the apprentice. It had something to do with her being on her knees. The next day Rande is interviewed I think on MSNBC and asked about this. She said she did not remember what it was. MSNBC played the clip where this happened on the apprentice. She then said that Trump had always treated her well and not at all in the way that was suggested.

End of discussion and the counter spin operation worked and made Megyn Kelly look like a lying presstitude who made the whole thing up to make Trump look bad.

What Trump did in response is not thin skinned. It is very shrewd counter spin and it worked to Trumps advantage and to Kelly’s disadvantage who now looks like a dishonest lying media whore.

Here is the MSNBC link:

That was a really good interview. Trump cracks me up. He straight out doesn't care what people think of him or his style and pulls no punches when it comes to how people treat him.

I think we've all gotten so used to the "game" of politics. People pretend to be mean to each other but then they go off and golf together. Trump takes it personally. It's not a "game" to him when he gets attacked. And in real life if anyone got attacked like Trump has our first instinct would be to fight back. We might not do it, but Trump understands that we want the people that represent us to fight for us and so when he fights back it's a pretty good bet that he'll fight..go to the mat...for the things that he believes in.

From the youtube link posted at comment #3, I copied this;

and then transcribed further, the following;

Trump has done gone and turned 'em both into horny toads.

...Or else

???

No.

It's more like a frog firing wannabe apprentice, or else "attendant" toads, former TCU student body members, or no.
