READY TO RUMBLE?

|| By FITSNEWS || The battle between GOP presidential frontrunner Donald Trump and the “conservative” Fox News cable network is back on … and once again, it would appear to revolve around Trump’s feud with network anchor Megyn Kelly.  To be more precise, though, it revolves around Fox News’ chairman Roger Ailes‘ incessant need to rush to Kelly’s defense every time Trump tweets something critical about her.   Of course we suppose that makes sense considering she’s the lynchpin of Ailes’ bid to “de-conservatize” the network … which is what this “dust-up” is really about.

(Well, that and taking out “The Donald” – a job it has thus far failed to do).

Anyway, the latest feud began on Monday evening when Kelly – who led Fox’s assault on Trump at this month’s GOP debate – returned from a 10-day vacation.

According to a tweet from “The Donald,” the host was “off her game” – and he suggested she ought to be replaced.  Trump also retweeted several references to Kelly being a “bimbo” and a “waste.”

(Ahem).

That was apparently too much for Ailes, who promptly issued a statement blasting Trump for his “crude and unprofessional” comments.

“Donald Trump’s surprise and unprovoked attack on Megyn Kelly during her show last night is as unacceptable as it is disturbing,” he said in a statement.  “I could not be more proud of Megyn for her professionalism and class in the face of all Mr. Trump’s verbal assaults.”

Really? Home girl can’t fight her own battles?

“Donald Trump rarely apologizes, but in this case he should,” Ailes continued.

We would question the political utility of Trump’s ongoing jabs at Kelly (especially seeing how convincingly he won the first round of this fight), but at this point it’s clear he either knows exactly what he’s doing or – more refreshingly – just doesn’t care.

Ailes?  We think he cares a bit too much …

Kelly is rumored to have been talking shit about Donald during her vacation, spreading malicious lies about him. And of course, it got back to Trump. Hence, his attacks. But who cares? Fox has turned liberal.

See? This is what I mean. Donald Trump has taken Ailes’ game and pushed it further out than Ailes wants to play it. Any movement by Ailes to walk it back will result in comments like the above.

Fight fire with fire. Out-crazy Ailes and he’ll fall apart. Trump, you magnificent bastard!

I agreed with Trump’s stand against Megyn but now he has gone to far. I am against the GOP establishment but Trump apologizes or he is off my list! I will support him when I think he is right and I can support him in a lot of cases because he is not in the loop but just to outright attack as this appears has crossed the line and he has let his money and leading in the polls to go to his head. I await his apology and no beating around the bush!

I stopped watching Fox news. This life long conservative watches the news block on CNN (about 15 minutes a day), no TV talk shows and that is about it.

I love not watching that crap. Screw Roger A-Hole and Fox…I can vote conservatively without them!

The ruling class cannot stand the thought of one of their people not being the next President, Congressman, Senator, etc. They will lose control of the peasant class (tax payers, working class). They make promises every election and do NOTHING. They take special interest and lobbyist money for mailings, robo calls, mailings to get the votes of their lemming Dems. and Reps. and then look after the special interests and their friends while the Government’s business and the people’s business goes by the wayside.
people are sick and tired of the elected officials and their BS. They vote themselves outrageous salaries and benefits and perks, that we pay for.
An Anchor baby is born every 93 seconds, illegals commit crimes, invade our schools and jobs and we are paying the price for all! We defend the world, not our own borders. Our schools are over burdened, our jails over crowded, hospitals maxed out and we are paying for it all! This is why Trump is leading in the polls. People are sick and tired and fed up!

Ailes is used to GOP politicians following the Ailes/Fox party line. When they deviate, they are expected to come on and apologize and beg for forgiveness.
Ailes doesn’t know how to handle it when he can’t have complete control of a GOP politician…and, he, no doubt, also has the hots for all of his blondes the way that only a morbidly obese old man can and feels compelled to defend them when attacked.

He’s made his living on slinging propaganda for the establishment, he’s gotten a ton of followers under his belt peddling this stuff for ages. Trump has basically taken that rhetoric to a level beyond what even Ailes wanted, and it’s making Ailes lose control. If Ailes bites back it makes him look weaker than Trump, and people will accuse him and the network of being too liberal.

I wish I had thought of that. Trump is smarter than we thought. It’ll be all the better when he runs as an independent to hand Hillary the win.

Yes, but even liberals know CNN is complete shit. Fox News might be aimed mostly at retirement home residents but few right wingers really denounce how shitty the channel is, out of some false sense of loyalty to the party’s establishment that, really, is completely undeserved.
