“She is totally overrated and angry”, Trump wrote.

NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump always boasted about his ratings for “Celebrity Apprentice“.

But he ratcheted up his emphasis on his conservative views Friday when speaking to a crowd of Southern fiscal and social conservatives skeptical of nominating another governor from a Democratic state in the northeast, as the Republican’s did with Mitt Romney in 2012.

The only woman in the GOP race said she believes women are “horrified” by Trump’s offensive and that Trump may be unprepared for the pressure that comes with being president. “I thought the questions, to me, were very unfair”, he said. In a statement on his RedState website, Erickson said: “I just don’t want someone on stage who gets a hostile question from a lady and his first inclination is to imply it was hormonal”.

Not a single person interviewed by WUSA9 mentioned Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton, who was a popular topic and target during Thursday night’s GOP debate. She didn’t have a choice because I gave. Rival executives and campaign aides also predicted unusually high ratings for the event, thanks to curiosity about Trump and the controversy over the “top ten” candidate criteria. When Wallace brought this up and asked Trump to respond to Bush’s comments, Trump said, “If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t even be talking about illegal immigration, Chris”. Trump interrupted her to clarify: “Only Rosie O’Donnell”. You’ll just have to deal with the New Jersey thing. If you would like to discuss another topic, look for a relevant article.

“There are a lot of opinions about who really did the best last night and I think that is kind of an indicator that no one really broke through”, said Skelley.

“I have said for some time that no one who claims to represent our party should ever be judgmental in tone, vitriolic or angry”, Fiorina told CNN’s Brooke Baldwin on Friday.

He added, “This was not a subject that was on anybody’s mind until I brought it up in my announcement”. “These are not the nice, sweet little people that you think, OK?”

Trump became the focus of Thursday’s forum right away, when Baier asked the 10 candidates onstage in Cleveland which of them would not pledge to support the eventual GOP nominee or run a third-party candidacy.

By Saturday evening, Trump’s campaign announced that he had fired a top consultant, Roger Stone.

“You could see that there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her – wherever”, he said on August 7.
