He added that Trump needs to accept that major presidential candidates face tough questions. Trump tried to wave off the question and dismissed Kelly during a raucous debate performance.

Trump’s Kelly criticism infuriated a number of prominent conservatives, however, during a Friday night CNN interview. “In an attempted clarification, Mr. Trump’s team tells me he meant “whatever”, not “where ever”. “It just was wrong”, Erickson wrote on the RedState website. For all of the people who were looking forward to Mr Trump coming, we will miss you. Late Friday night, RedState founder Erick Erickson announced that he has withdrawn Trump’s invitation to appear at the annual RedState Gathering here in Atlanta.
Yesterday, Trump touted the buzz generated by the televised event.
“For the record, it was well beyond Rosie O’Donnell”, Kelly responded before continuing her question. He also criticized Kelly’s fellow debate moderators and Fox colleagues Chris Wallace and Brett Baier. “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes”.
The campaign claimed that the 900 activists who had wanted to hear from Trump on Saturday evening were contacting the campaign to complain about Erickson and others who “are trying to be so politically correct”.
Trump’s response focused on how people worry too much about political correctness and how if Kelly didn’t like it, he was “sorry”. And you know they start saying lift up.
When doing so, he has repeatedly targeted women and their physical appearance.
However, Rosie O’Donnell was not so impressed. You once told a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees. “She talks like a truck driver”, he said in 2006 during an interview with “Entertainment Tonight”. I don’t think he’s a bad guy.
Trump, who was leading in polls going into the debate, thought Kelly was unfair in asking him about his previous comments on women.
The move received mixed reviews from conservatives on Twitter.
“I feel like it’s another one of Donald Trump’s reality TV shows”. She was in my opinion – she was off-base. “She’s disgusting“. Republican strategist Matt Mackowiak said: “This is the first time that a significant figure in the conservative movement has stood up to Trump and it’s cost him anything”.
