A war begun at the first Republican presidential debate earlier this month may have seen a cease-fire when one of the combatants left the field. But now that Megyn Kelly of Fox News is back from vacation, Republican front-runner Donald Trump has wasted no time taking aim and firing.
I liked The Kelly File much better without @megynkelly, Trump tweeted Monday evening. Perhaps she could take another eleven day unscheduled vacation!

.@megynkelly must have had a terrible vacation, she is really off her game. Was afraid to confront Dr. Cornel West. No clue on immigration!

Female Trump Supporters Just Feel More Comfortable With GOP Candidate Whos Openly Horrible To Them
MANCHESTER, NHDescribing the current Republican frontrunners frankness on the topic as a welcome change of pace in the crowded race, female supporters of Donald Trump told reporters Monday they simply felt more comfortable backing a candidate who is openly hostile and belittling toward them.
Its actually pretty refreshing to have a candidate whos willing to come right out and disrespect women to our faces, rather than trying to conceal their actual views or spin their policy stances as if theyre beneficial to women, said Trump supporter Laura Coyle, adding that she likes how she knows exactly where she stands with the billionaire due to his straightforward style of calling her gender worthless and disgusting up front.
Sure, I gave Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee a chance. But they just talked in circles like Washington politicians, never offering any straight talk about how they view us as inferior and undeserving of equal treatment or rights. Trumps a straight shooter, though. What he says is what he believes, which in this case is that most women are either calculating manipulators or repulsive animals. When polled, Trumps male supporters indicated their approval for the candidates willingness to express his open disdain toward women as well.

(51,308 posts)I wonder if he is just trying to get men (who often say this kind of crap in private) to cheer him on.
Believe me, men say these things. I've heard them. Usually to goad me, and I ignore it for what it is, but a lot of men like to hear this crap - even if they have daughters, wives, sisters, etc.
Sad, but true.

(89,282 posts)The men think this is how women should be treated if they"get out of line".
And the women agree and accept being a lower class and if they are attacked they brought it on themselves.
