TRUMP OUT-FOXED FOX – HE WON’T BE THEIR PUNCHING BAG AGAIN….
In November conservative Trump supporters were outraged at Megyn Kelly after targeting Donald Trump during the first Republican FOX News debate.
Twitter exploded with attacks on Kelly, her fellow debate hosts and FOX News for the constant attacks on the Republican candidates.
After the debate Megyn Kelly bragged that – The candidates are in the arena “and so am I.” Liberal media outlets praised Kelly and FOX News for their nonstop attacks against the candidates. The New York Times, MSNBC and Media Matters all praised Kelly and FOX for berating Trump and the Republican candidates.
This weekend Donald Trump called for Megyn Kelly’s removal as debate moderator for the February FOX New GOP debate.
Based on @MegynKelly‘s conflict of interest and bias she should not be allowed to be a moderator of the next debate.

And, Trump campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, indicated that Donald Trump could walk away from the debate if Fox won’t exclude Megyn Kelly.
In November an online petition was started to bar Megyn Kelly from future GOP debates. Over 55,000 people signed the petition. Tonight the number is up to over 57,000.
Sign the petition here and tell FOX News to dump Megyn Kelly.
Enough is Enough.
