Speaking with the TV show “Extra” at Vanity Fair’s Oscars after-party on Sunday night, she said, “I have my questions that I wanted to ask him at the last debate and I just moved them right over to this debate, so that’s my plan”.

Fox News chief Roger Ailes said the “entire network stands behind Kelly”.
Kelly pointed out that Trump University had received a D-minus rating from the Better Business Bureau.
Trump shot back, “Give me break”, he said, adding, “Lets see what happens at the end of a couple of years when this case is over”.
It wasn’t until a half hour into Thursday night’s two-hour program that she finally confronted the reality show billionaire who has behaved so ungentlemanly, indeed thuggishly, toward her. But his post-debate performance on the campaign trail – disparaging Trump with insults about his hair, his makeup and whether he wet his trousers onstage or has unusually small hands – was widely panned.
TRUMP: Trump has dominated most of the debates with pointed barbs at his rivals, but will his seven-state victories on Super Tuesday lead him to claim the mantle of the presumptive nominee and look to the general election in November by directing most of his insults at Hillary Clinton? I feel like it’s getting boring.
The animosity from Trump contributed to an on-again, off-again feud between Trump and Fox News, conservatives’ favorite cable news channel.
As far as the lineup is concerned, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and John Kasich are going to be part of it while Ben Carson will not be part of it. When Kelly asked about his changing positions on several issues, Trump remained calm, conceding his positions had evolved.
Trump responded that he had only ever disparaged one woman – Rosie O’Donnell – and took to other networks in the following days to accuse Kelly of bias and ineptitude. That’s what I want the headline to be on Friday. “I mean I walked out of the room and people were saying, ‘That was really unfair.'” He also retweeted a supporter’s assessment that Kelly is a “bimbo”.
She told the Associated Press in a new interview, ‘It was never personal from my point of view’.

“I doubt the very first question of the debate will be from me to Trump”. “When people are hitting you from different angles, from all different angles, unfortunately you have to hit back”.
