Carly Fiorina said Donald Trump's comments about Megyn Kelly "were completely inappropriate and offensive" and were clearly meant to imply the Fox News host's tough questions were a result of menstruation.
"Women understood that comment. And yes, it is offensive," Fiorina, the former Hewlett-Packard executive, said in an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper aired Sunday on "State of the Union."
Trump is under fire for saying Friday night that Kelly, who pressed him on his previous attacks on women during Thursday night's GOP presidential debate, had "blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her -- wherever."
"I started out as a secretary. And as I made my way up in the business world, a male-dominated business world, I've had lots of men imply that, um -- I was unfit for decision-making because maybe I was having my period. So I'll say it, OK?" Fiorina said.
"When I started this campaign, I was asked on a national television show whether a woman's hormones prevented her from serving in the Oval Office," she said. "My response was, can we think of a single instance in which a man's hormones might have clouded his judgment?"

Does botox affect the effects of menstruation? If so, Carly is home free now.
Actually...He’s used the phrase before....Blood from eyes....blood from nose....were the orifaces previously mentioned.
Trump would disagree with you Carly. He told all the networks you have to have a sick deviant mind to think what you do.
She’s right. I’m female and this wasn’t something I was okay with. Mr. Mercat is a vet and he was POed about the attack on John McCain even though he doesn’t like McCain. I don’t like Kelly, never have, don’t watch her. I find it creepy that she’s on because she’s glamourous.
But Mr. M and I both can get back being POed about things Trump says. I’m still interested in him.
The women I know did not even have the thought enter their mind that is what Trump meant. PC run amok. I think Donald says enough to object without going there. If Fiorina goes there oh oh.
Carly had been on a steady rise...now she is dead to me and many others through this pandering to the corrupt media that would pick our leaders for us. Beneath contempt...just like Megyn Kelly who was exposed by Mark Levin. Bye-bye...take me off the mailing list.
CF negated her gains of Thursday night, Friday and Saturday with her Sunday morning remarks today on TV. She largely parroted GOPe-driven comments against DT. Piled on with the Trump-bashers. Also, the way she dressed and bobbled her head around made her appear...weird.
She’s lost me totally this morning, even as Veep.
Go home Carly.
It was a “dog whistle.” Only feminazis can hear it.
Carley, I’m really beginning to not give a rat’s arse what you think or say........have a nice day........;)
2 minutes further into the interview, he said the same thing about Chris Mathews. Was Chris menstruating too?
Fake outrage by candidates is perhaps the most annoying characteristic they can have..
Carly, you just lost a chunk of your support.
I’m a woman and when I heard it, my first thought was “So Trump said Megyn Kelly was on her period?”
BS. You are off my list Carly.
If you don’t like menstrual references, why do you end every sentence you write with a period?
It’s always about PC. The Dems can rob, loot, cheat, etc...but with Republicans it’s about being nicey nice.
I wish Carly was the CEO of Disney. That’s a corporation I’d love to see ruined, and Fiorina is just the gal to do it.
