Reuters ^ | 1/27 | Reuters

U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump on Wednesday escalated a fight with Fox News, using the word "bimbo" in a tweet about anchor woman Megyn Kelly after he dramatically pulled out of a debate only days before the first votes of the 2016 campaign are cast.

Trump on Tuesday withdrew from the televised encounter, scheduled for Thursday night in Des Moines, Iowa, irritated at host Fox for allowing Kelly to moderate after her questioning had angered him in a debate last year.

He needs to shut his pie hole now. He made what I thought was a brilliant move by bowing out. Even the pundits on CNN this morning were calling it advantage Trump.

Let it lie now.......

I think he wants Kelly to do something stupid and demonstrate that they were plotting against him. Presently, I think Fox has made themselves look foolish enough and ought to clean up their act.

he can’t. It would be a major flaw in any other candidate but he’s Trump. and being that he’s likely the next president of the United States I hope you will change that part a little

He didn't call her a bimbo.

He said he thought of caller her a bimbo, but decided otherwise.

I refuse to call Megyn Kelly a bimbo, because that would not be politically correct. Instead I will only call her a lightweight reporter!

hehe

Trump is the only one running who doesn't need the money.

All other politicians are owned by rich donors. Politicians in
Washington DC are corrupt(NO ONE can deny this simple fact). Washington dc is a den of corruption and evil , socialist evil.

Trump is the only one that can save America from the slide the media and the politicians have put us in , a slide into the abyss of a hell, called socialism.

Well, she is a bimbo. Didn’t bother anyone when Hillary called every woman under the sun a bimbo.

But it’s all about him.

Trump has to have the last word, and he has to be in the spotlight. Fatal flaw? We shall see.

Among the other powers of the President is the power of the bully pulpit. With it he can influence both policy and culture.

Will this be the type of culture that Trump will espouse and lead us toward? Is this “New York values”?

Rather than a bully pulpit, I think that we will simply have a bully not worthy to stand behind a pulpit.

He actually did call her a bimbo after a previous debate. He is slightly backtracking now.

He can't resist and will continue with 3rd grade name calling and infantile Twitter tantrums.

Just checked twitter: he did NOT call her a bimbo. Just a bad reporter.

Just untwittered from Levin because he’s gone nuts. As soon as the nominee is picked, I’ll twit with him again.

The bar for that got set pretty low 7 years ago IMO.

No more Mr. Nice Guy. Keep pushing, be unrelenting.

Liberals and feminists have screamed logic down for so long, right across the western world, it it nice to see someone putting up a front and fighting back.

Did you see Trump's statement? He was very clever.

He called MK a light weight reporter. Bimbo is not PC.

Trump isn't the political savior we need, but he is the one we deserve.
