Donald Trump goes on raging tweetstorm about Megyn Kelly and the 'total disaster' debate
Business Insider ^ | January 28, 2016 | Brett LoGiurato

Real-estate mogul Donald Trump called the coming Fox News-hosted Republican debate a "total disaster" and shared a Twitter user's post that called Fox News host Megyn Kelly a "bimbo" during a raging series of tweets hours before he was set to boycott the Thursday-night debate.

"The 'debate' tonight will be a total disaster — low ratings with advertisers and advertising rates dropping like a rock. I hate to see this," the Republican presidential front-runner wrote.

The real-estate tycoon had told Fox host Bill O'Reilly on Wednesday night that he hoped Fox did "well," even though he said the network would "make much less" money without him on stage.

Trump also continued his assault on Kelly, with whom he has feuded for months.

One tweet, which Trump promoted on his account Thursday morning, attacked Kelly for a GQ Magazine photo shoot and labeled her a "bimbo."

"And this is the bimbo that's asking presidential questions?" the tweet said. The user attached two photos from the shoot with text that read, "Criticizes Trump for objectifying women ... Poses like this in GQ Magazine."

The candidate shared the post a day after he had said he wouldn't refer to Kelly as a "bimbo," a term used to insult women, because doing so would "not be politically correct."

Trump drew some backlash last year when he twice promoted tweets calling Kelly a "bimbo." One of the times Trump retweeted the insult was after Kelly, a moderator at an August debate, confronted him about past comments he had made about women's looks.

One Michelle Malkin is worth more than ten Trumps.

You are all just upset by the fact that he WAS going to come in 2nd in Iowa (as recently as a week ago) and now it looks like he is going to come in FIRST.

Megan Kelly is a solid conservative? She is a b—— and I don’t mean bimbo. Although she may be that too.

yep, having Husk and Santorum basically endorse him in Iowa is a game clincher.

I have awakened from my Trump drunk stupor and am becoming more disturbed at the ever growing nuttiness surrounding him and his tweeting. Will he embroil us in useless conflicts constantly when he doesn’t get his way or gets insulted over pettiness?

“She started it.”

How long has it been? Why is he still bothered by it? This dude holds grudges like this over a little criticism, yet some people think it’s a good idea for him to occupy the most criticized position in the world?

"Megyn Kelly ... solid conservative woman"

So says Michael Moore.

“She’s a bimbo, what’s the issue?”

The issue is that Trump is afraid of a blonde bimbo. World leaders are getting a chuckle of this.

Because she had Michael Moore on her show that makes her a liberal? That’s crazy talk.

Kelly’s a Feminist.

That always cancels out any conservatism.
