#1 Another example of 'guilty until proven innocent' and the escalating transition of Fox.

#2 Seems Megyn thinks she smells Trump's blood in the water.

#3 But a serial rapist like Bill Clintion, and his accomplice and accessory Hillary Clinton are just fine with you Megyn? Really??

#4 She is another Katie Couric. People should not do interviews with a corrupt media. That includes the likes of Kelly at Fox. It is the same as asking someone to sucker punch you as hard as they can.

#5 She closed by saying Newt has anger issues.
I would rather watch the TV Guide on cable than her crappy show.
But, good for Newt, he did a nice job.

#6 I wonder how she would take it if Newt stated he could bring ten men on her show who would call her a slut?

#7 Sexual misconduct allegations against one of the candidates in a presidential election is a legitimate news story. That's not to say the recent revelations of the Clinton corruption isn't. Gingrich was correct that news coverage overall shows both laziness and bias but he totally went into deflection mode. Not surprising really, Newt has always been a phony fuck. The only difference is now he's reeaallly hoping for a cabinat position.

Sexual misconduct allegations against one of the candidates in a presidential election is a legitimate news story.


Except these "allegations" are transparently false. It's not like Trump has been a recluse with no assets up until this moment -- he'd have been a gold mine for these women at any moment. The timing, and the choice of venues, speaks volumes to their credibility. They have none.

#9 "You know what, Mr. Speaker? I am not fascinated by sex, but I am fascinated by the protection of women and understanding what we're getting in the Oval Office."

That is reality-defying. Fascinated by the protection of women? An election is not only about the vaginistas.

#10 So I guess the stories about her being the biggest kellyphile are true.

#11 The funny thing is, Trump spoke like a pig but he did so in private. Nobody was actually hurt by his banter. His actions, if true, never got to the point that anyone went public about it until the final weeks of an election after contacted by Gloria Alred so they couldn't be that bad.

Would it be better to have a non-vulgar candidate, yes. But seriously, this is so transparent its sad.

#14 I think lots of people speak a bit more plainly in private. I don't hold it against him. Trying to impress that Bush thing he was talking to however, well that's just sad.

#15 Sexual misconduct allegations against one of the candidates in a presidential election is a legitimate news story.

Don't you ever wonder why they held onto these allegations until October?

#16 DEAR AMERICA: Has Megyn Kelly JOINED Hillary As A #NastyWoman?

#17 All journalists are fascinated by sex. It sells more newspapers than anything else. It raises ratings more than anything else. That being said, responsible journalists should avoid bias and smut. Further, I think of a sexual predator as a rapist and/or child molester who may even be capable of murder or kidnapping to facilitate or hide the crime and who is unable under any circumstances to control himself and belongs in jail, kinda like that Arab in Austria who claimed he had a "sexual emergency". (BTW, I never heard where that Arab-colonist-sexual-emergency-boy-rapist-child-molester received any coverage by any of the major news networks most likely because of his protected status as a Muslim immigrantcolonist.) The term sexual predator is far more inflammatory than Trump deserves based on any of the accusations we've heard. It is indicative of bias, pandering to prurient interests and yellow journalism of the worst kind. Together with her opening attack on Trump in the first of the primary debates it puts Megyn Kelly in the same category as the yellow journalists who work for ABCNBCCBSCNN. She has compromised her integrity and her credibility.

Gingrich did a great job of calling her on it.

#18 Together with her opening attack on Trump in the first of the primary debates...

Kelly's attack question was;
...how will you answer the charge from Hillary Clinton, who's likely to be the Democratic nominee, that your not part of the war on women.

Looking back, her question was almost...prescient. Except for the fact it was so obvious that if Trump got the nomination his past comments would be used against him. Had he answered with even the tiniest slice of humility instead of cocking off like a Brooklyn wise guy he might have been better off for the predictable October slime.

#19 I bailed on Megyn about two months ago as her attitude began to openly reflect her sense of celebrity and lefties began courting her vanity.

#20 They should play her image with Hannity or O'Reilly's audio. Might be big ratings.

#21 Gingrich the adulterer, defending Trump? Then accusing a reporter of being obsessed with sex? Anyone looking at this neutrall is agape with amazement at how BAD Gingrich looks - and by extention, Trump.

The GOP had self destructed. Thanks Trump. Signed, Every Progressive in the US.

You Trump koolaide drinkers keep on drinking. You're doing a great job of electing Hillary.

The rest of us are going to start digging shelters and laying in supplies. Thanks a lot.

#22 Jolu,
Name that Rep candidate, he brought a pea shooter to a gun fight, and lost to Trump. At one time guys like you said any of the 17 would be better than Clinton. While you and Rubio are digging your shelter stay out of the way of the the movement that some day brings Washington back to the Common Man.

Trump praises Hillary. Trump is a stalking horse to get Hillary elected.
