Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump insisted in an interview aired Sunday that he “didn’t go wild” for refusing to attend Fox News’ Republican debate last week.
Trump refused to participate in the Fox debate after the network released a statement in response to Trump criticizing moderator Megyn Kelly. Trump instead held his own campaign event to raise money for veterans.
Trump said Fox treated him badly, but that the network was nice to him in conversations before his event took place.
“I mean, I was treated very, very badly by Fox. They issued a statement
that was an inappropriate statement,” Trump said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “Now, what happened is, since then, they’ve been very nice. And they tried very much to get me to do the debate.”
CBS host John Dickerson interrupted Trump and noted that it was a press release.
“I didn’t go wild,” Trump said.
The GOP is sinking, sinking, sinking deeper into crazy land.
He’s a rebel. A maverick.
You know, an idiot.
He did not go tame either. Amazing talent he has there for filling space with nothing.
He’s going to be the nominee. He’s going to get clobbered in the general (the anti-Trump voters will turn in nearly as great and unusual numbers to vote against him as they did in '08 to vote for Obama) and he’s going to take Senators and Republican governors down with him.
“didn’t go wild” except he called Megyn a bimbo and tweeted photoshopped images of her.
He bamboozles and blusters, yells and cajoles… yet doesn’t go wild (by his own estimation).
What a sorry excuse for a candidate.
