Real-estate magnate Donald Trump fired off multiple furious tweets Wednesday night after a crude remark was used against him on Fox News.
Rich Lowry, the editor of the conservative magazine National Review, declared that the Republican presidential front-runner is attacking rival Carly Fiorina because she emasculated him at last week's presidential debate.
"Part of what's going on here is that last debate. Let's be honest: Carly cut his balls off with the precision of a surgeon and he knows it," Lowry said during a Fox News interview, according to video posted by Mediaite.
Host Megyn Kelly was shocked.
"What did you just say?!" Kelly said. "You can't say that."
But Trump, who has fiercely feuded with both Fox News and Kelly, wasn't satisfied with her admonishment.
He trashed Lowry on Twitter as "incompetent" and "clueless," demanded an apology, and suggested that the Federal Communications Commission should fine Lowry as a result.

It’s always a good morning to start off with Upper Class Twit of the Year!!!! :)
I was wondering what Trump was mad at Lowry about. I haven’t been watching that much Fox anymore. Now I know. Trump was right to be mad. Lowry is a disgrace.
Well, first off, she didn’t cut anything off anywhere. She responded as a woman who was insulted. She should have fired back at the questioner “That is not a question for this debate. Give me a tough question because I don’t care what any man thinks of my face.”
Lowry is a pussy ... cat.
Buckley was old and not all that far from death when he tapped Lowry. It’s truly sad. A fine publication for many years, but diminished to GOPe gibberish by Lowry.
My father gave me a subscription when I graduated high school. It became my Christmas present from him in the years that followed.
But national review is not conservative. They are the g.o.p.e.
I saw that segment. It had the scent of Kanned Ham.
Not one who can always think on his feet, Trump's follow-up response of "She's got a beautiful face and blah blah blah" was so ill advised, if I'd been his handler I'd have slapped him around (figuratively) after the debate was over. It was right up there with, "I wasn't talking about her looks. I was talking about her persona." These statements are proof that he thinks the American citizens are stupid beyond measure. Although he's right about that in many cases, most of us see him for the flim-flam man he is.
More like...leave out the "mone".
Trump continues to out the RINOs.
“I quit paying any attention to National Review when (prissy) Rich Lowry was elevated to editor.”
National Review is now GOPe central. Weekly Standard too. And Redstate. A lot of our own pundit class have put themselves out of business and don’t know it.
Yes, he penned an absolutely true and brutal response to the ‘Talk’ BS narrative. The truth is exceedingly hard for RINO’s and Democrats to handle.
Everything that Derbyshire said about the black ‘community’ was verifiable fact, yet Dick Lowery dumped him, even though he was suffering from cancer.
He pulled the full RINO surrender on that one.
Here is the piece in TAKI’s Magazine that got him in such hot water.

So FOX says they have canceled Trump as he is so immature or whatever, and then their employee Lowry goes out and uses vulgar language on live TV. Both Kelly and Lowry were giggling like 2 immature children.
Way to go Lowry! Doubt he will be suspended.
I am glad Trump is fighting back. He had been insulted non stop on FOX since that first debate.
Trump should do radio and avoid TV. No-one is watching anymore.
1994 was the year I officially became a conservative. One of the first things I did was to take out a subscription to National Review. I haven't looked at a copy for over 10 years.
Lowrey making his contribution to our classy political discourse and culture. I wonder if he ever read Buckley. Nah — probably too thoughtful with too many big words.
“but after this subscription runs its’ course I will not be renewing.”
Even better would be to go to the trouble to cancel your subscription along with a request for a pro-rata refund, explaining that their continuous attacks on Trump and continuous shilling for the GOPe are the reasons why you are cancelling.
My Dad passed away in 1996. I kept it up until Buckley died in 2008. It changed a great deal during those years as Buckley’s guidance and control over it gradually diminished.
The hypocrisy is pretty blatant too. Lowry is one of the dweebs that was criticizing Trump for being crude. Perhaps it makes a girly guy like Lowry feel manly to talk about nuts. Trump was never as crude as this sissy is.
