Donald Trump feud causes panicking Fox News CEO Roger Ailes to call Ivanka and Melania in attempt to get the frontrunner BACK to the debate - but he'll only speak to Murdoch

Donald Trump's refusal to attend Fox News' debate on Thursday night has sent Fox News into chaos The network's CEO has reportedly reached out to both Ivanka and Melania Trump to try and get the Republican front-runner to change his mind He refuses to attend over the inclusion of anchor Megyn Kelly as one of the debate moderators and will only speak to network head Rupert Murdoch Kelly meanwhile welcomed liberal filmmaker Michael Moore on her program Tuesday night who applauded her handling of the Trump feud One Fox News anchor said of Moore and Kelly; 'That would be like Rachel Maddow laughing along with Charles Koch as he trashed Hillary Clinton!' Trump called Kelly a 'lightweight reporter' on Wednesday morning and his campaign manager said she is 'completely obsessed' with Trump

The Fox News and Donald Trump feud is heating up now that the Republican front-runner has announced he will not be attending the network's debate Thursday night over the presence of anchor Megyn Kelly.

And while the network appears to be publicly siding with Kelly, who is still set to moderate Thursday's debate, the network is also reportedly trying to privately plead with Trump the best way they know how - through the women in his life.

Joe Scarborough revealed on Morning Joe Wednesday morning that Fox News CEO Roger Ailes had been trying to contact both Ivanka and Melania Trump hoping they could convince Trump to change his mind.

Trump did BUSINESS with the Saudis too, yet now the saudi royal prince is insulting him and saying he should drop out of the race, explain that.

It’s not like financing a political campaign.

Now FOX will learn what a boycott feels like.
Is it worth it for them just to stroke the ego of one has-been (never-was?) Queen Bee?

If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him.

If Cruz were smart (and he is not) he would drop out of the FAUX debate also.

“explain that”

Easy. The Saudis are still hand-holding with the Bushies.

Only this time, they’re backing the wrong horse.

Jeb is a nag.

100% All warfare is based on deception.

Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.

I turned her off last night, which I rarely do. First she reported with glee on the Trump debate decision, and then she said Michael Moore was a guest. WTF? I guess we can see her true colors now.

Kelly looked stupid last night with that insane Michael Moore. Moore has 0 credibility. Why would she associate herself with such a stooge?

and i'm SURE Trump has read it more than once also

It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.

Thanks; but I’m generally a pretty boring person.

While we’re on the subject, though, I’ve always thought that Catherine Herridge is the most elegant, sophisticated female newsperson that we’ve seen on television in recent years - the other Fox females could learn a lot from her. She knows what works for her, what is appropriate, and she sticks to it and never goes ‘overboard’.

(I’ve always suspected that she has her own dressmaker.)

Catherine Herridge is a brilliant woman.

Megyn Kelly is a low IQ bimbo.

I’m not sure that I believe much in the notion of ‘IQ’.

But I think that where one’s ‘fascination’ lies, is important.

I don’t think that Megyn’s fascination is in the right place.
