Did not Newt accuse Kelly of caring only about sex ? And that people in red states are less educated on average than in red states is an established and proven fact not a personal accusation. That does not mean everyone is dumb in those states but it sheds a lot of lights on the average Trump supporter and Republican voter. Makes zero sense to vote for a party that caters to the richest unless you belong to the class of the richest.
''If'' Trump was President . . . ------------ Donald Trump Lies Again About The Iraq War He refused to apologize to Khizr and Ghazala Khan, saying their son would still be alive if he had been president “If I were president at that time, Capt. Khan would be alive today, George, because I wouldn’t have been in Iraq,” Trump said Wednesday. “You did support it initially,” Stephanopoulos pointed out. “Support what?” Trump responded. “Look, let’s get it straight. I was opposed to the war in Iraq. Right from the beginning, I was opposed ... way before the war started.” “From the beginning, I was opposed to the war in Iraq,” Trump continued. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-iraq-war_us_581141b4e4b0390e69ce259d
This is the best take on the Kelly/Gingrich episode. Anderson Cooper Smacks Down Newt Gingrich Over Megyn Kelly Sex Claims “This is a guy who is, what, on his third marriage, cheated on his first two wives, and was having an affair while he was impeaching Bill Clinton.” CNN host Anderson Cooper pointed out Wednesday night the ridiculousness of Donald Trump surrogate Newt Gingrich accusing Megyn Kelly of being “fascinated with sex”. “For Newt Gingrich to accuse Megyn Kelly of being fascinated by sex. This is a guy who is, what, on his third marriage, cheated on his first two wives, and was having an affair while he was impeaching Bill Clinton,” Cooper said. “For a male like him with his record on relationships to accuse Megyn Kelly of being fascinated by sex, just seems like a particularly ironic thing.” CNN contributor Ana Navarro agreed during the panel debate of Gingrich’s bizarre defense of the Republican nominee. “You said ironic. I think the word you’re looking for is hypocritical,” she said, adding that Kelly was reporting on mounting sexual assault allegations leveled at Trump. “Let me explain it slowly,” Navarro continued. “Sexual assault and sex are two different things. One is unwanted, one is wanted, so maybe they need to understand that to begin with.
you know what is the worst thing about those chicken journalists? Nobody holds Trump accountable. The only reason he is where he is today is because journalists let Trump bully them and the rest. Each time Trump speaks a lie or falsehood he should immediately be stopped, confronted with the fact and that should be clarified first before anything else. Even at the risk and expense of possibly aborting the interview or cutting the interview short. Each time Trump gets away with a lie he picks up more of those knuckleheads and clowns who believe anything this con man says. Trump should never have gotten away with saying he did not support the Iraq war. He did support the Iraq war and the video footage is out there. How a journalist can let Trump get away with denial is beyond my comprehension. But hey, I just read today that Megyn Kelly and Bill O' Reilly both earn 15 million USD per year, Bill north of 20 million. They are way too invested in multiplying their wealth that they apparently don't have time to insist on facts and truth. I of course also include everyone at ABC, CNN, NBC,...how can a tv bunny earn as much as the CEO of a multi billion dollar international investment bank, that is systemically important, has a market cap of many tens of billions,and who manages tens of thousands of employees. Can someone explain this to me? I have said it again and again, the ad dollars companies are paying for online, tv, outdoor advertisement is preposterous and enables a mere TV anchor to earn as much as someone who signs responsible for tens of thousands of people, which makes that often over a hundred of thousand humans when you include the employees' families. This is absolutely shocking and shows what is REALLY WRONG WITH AMERICA. Nobody in Europe earns that much working at a TV station and they also read the news and moderate talk shows each and every single day of the year. Their salary is around 300,000 - 400,000 euros tops. Not 20 million. Goodness.
Both candidates should be held accountable by the media. You cannot harshly question one candidate and let the other one slide. To do so demonstrates bias - which gets to the core of what Newt was trying to say (but stated poorly).
If she did, she sold it for a good price. I see she makes $11 Million/yr. Shoot. I'd have sex with her for half that!
CNN plays everything over and over again as a matter of course. That's what it does. As to why it played that particular clip over and over again, it was noteworthy. Gingrich's behavior was bizarre. His defense of Trump's indefensible behavior was bizarre. And then he insulted Kelly by trying to make it about her "fascination with sex" rather than the alleged sexual predation that is at issue. It cost him political capital; he just doesn't know it yet. Kelly gave him a perfect platform to shit his bed and he did. It was all Gingrich.
the cnn contributor... destroys cooper's argument against Gingrich. did anyone say newt made unwanted sexual advances? By their lack of logic Cooper must be disqualified to have an opinion as well because he is gay and never been married at all? Unless he is a celibate gay man. CNN contributor Ana Navarro said ... “Let me explain it slowly,” Navarro continued. “Sexual assault and sex are two different things. One is unwanted, one is wanted, so maybe they need to understand that to begin with.
