Speaker Gingrich exposed Megyn Kelly as a Clinton supporter.

Some nerve claiming to be concerned about women, yet working as hard as she does to destroy Trump and get Bill Clinton back into the east wing. Let's not forget how she objectified herself by posing seductively in GQ and also engaging in dirty talk with Howard Stern. And yet here she is claiming to be concerned about sexual predation.

She's a joke, not a journalist.

She sure handed Newt his ass. 

Will any Trump symp come out of this campaign with a better reputation than before they went in?  Doubtful.  Newt and Rudy are parodies.

Did you type "dirty talk with Howard Stern" and "objectifying" with a straight face?  LOL!!!

Trump is as big a sexual predator as Clinton.  How many women did he grope who won't come forward? 

This interview will do wonders to improve Trump's standing with women.

Newt couldn't really convincingly defend Trump's poll numbers or convince me that he really believed Trump would win.

==========================

Yes he did.

+, her crappy 'news' coverage is now so crappy, even rachel maddow is beating her in the ratings.

Nobody is beating Sean Hannity though.  He is for Trump, and has the top rating of any news channel show right now.

We remember Speaker Gingrich in 2012 when he slapped down the questioner in the moderated primary debate in Georgia. It was a salacious question meant to damage the Speaker. However, Gingrich brilliantly pointed out the biased questioning with a few choice words, and we all cheered.

Now that Speaker Gingrich is supporting our America First republican nominee, the NeverTrump/Hillary-for-president contingent here throws him under the bus and instead cheers the biased questioner.  I refer specifically to stinkspur.

We're not blind. We see what you NeverTrumpers are doing.

Gingrich looked and sounded desperate.

As far as women not coming forward, I imagine there are many who are afraid to with the maniac trump attack team.
Mark Cuban was on TV talking about two he knows and has talked to on the phone who will not come forward, because of
family concerns.
Of course there is the woman anchor on CNN who personally knows and vouches for another victim who will not come forward.
American cannot elect a certified pervert for president.

It is really a travesty that the American public is stuck with two miserable candidates for the highest office in the land.

A crook and a creep.

LOL!  An honor to get under your thin skin.

I never supported the pretentious gasbag Gingrich for president.  I remember that, while Gingrich was impeaching Clinton in 1998, he was porking his own little lollipop right under everybody's nose.

Newt has ruined his already-pitiful standing in the conservative movement with his throne-sniffing of Trump.

You way overestimate the effect of #NeverTrump, since we are so very small in number.  But you need a scapegoat when Donald is crushed in two weeks, so you'll blame us.

In fact, it is YOU and your Trump leg humpers who foisted this monstrosity on the rest of the GOP and it is YOU who are responsible for his defeat.

We told you this would happen.

Seriously? I thought she was excellent, although the ending when she referred to his anger indicated that he had gotten under her skin. Apart from that, I thought he was exhibiting behavior of a desperate, angry man who finally realizes that he has backed the wrong horse for the past year and that the fruits of his labor are just about to reveal themselves as a colossal crop failure.

If you can prove to me that Megyn wouldn't cover Hillary in the same way for the same type of offense, then I'll retract my defense of her. I think Megyn's one of the best FNC has on its lineup because she's equally tough on both sides.

And to the posters who insist that Megyn's a Hillary supporter, I can't see it. Frankly, I couldn't tell you who her candidate is because I've seen her defend Trump when he didn't deserve defending and Hillary when she didn't deserve it. It's called journalism. As for me, I like it to be tough and thorough. I like what appears to be inconsistencies to be pointed out. I like what looks like hypocrisy pointed out. Then I will assess if the interviewee is truthful, deflecting, spinning, full of BS or any one of a number of other possibilities. I hate when journalists try to lead me to a conclusion. I love it when they pull out the facts (and, in so doing, expose the behavior) I will use to come to my own conclusion. I'm funny that way. I don't even care who her candidate is so long as she is fair in her interviews.

Poor little Newtie. Megyn neglected to put on her kid gloves for him.

You can see what this pathetic campaign has done to him. He looks like he's been rode hard and put up wet. Add to that his unhinged performance tonight. I'm of the opinion that he needs to take extended medical leave until after the first of the year. He'll need that long to recover from this Trump ordeal. I'd recommend counseling for him during that time. He's going to have to learn to function in life knowing that he has lost all credibility as a conservative. He'll be forever linked to the worst candidate the Republicans have nominated in modern times -- probably the only candidate that couldn't beat the very unpopular Hildebeast. Thanks again, Trumpsters. NOT!

Not really.  Depends on your viewpoint.  She maintained a professional demeanor (if slightly condescending) and Newt blustered and accused her of being obsessed by sex.

She won.

Newt wants a job in Trump Admin., as does Giuliani, Chris Christi, Huckabee, and the brain surgeon.

Newt turned off more women by accusing Megyn Kelly of being obsessed with sex.  It is Trump who is obsessed with sex and the media is going to report what Trump says.  Newt tried to push that onto Kelly and that is attacking another woman about sex.  Newt has turned into another Trump.

Trump is a slime ball but hardly our worst enemy.   He's without class, severely lacking in morals, unethical, and a womanizer.   He's shipped jobs overseas and supported corrupt politicians.

The only other candidate for President with a chance of winning is much much worse.   She's sold our nations secrets, abandoned people in the line of fire, covered up multiple rapes, probably been involved in ordering several murders, lied to protect a child rapist, jeaopardized national security, and has plans to escalate what Obama has done.

Worth noting that back when Bill Clinton was dealing more heavily with the accusations against him (which it’s laughable Newt pretends wasn’t covered), the pushback was that Republicans were “obsessed with sex.” And of course Republicans, including Newt, said that was ridiculous and that this was a character issue.

But as is the case with everything else in the Trump orbit, #LOLnothingmatters.

This wasn’t even all the crazy. He also spent the first half of the interview completely denying all polling and sounding like his analysis was given under duress. Has anyone confirmed that his loved ones are safe? Did Trump kidnap them and tell Newt he has 24 hours to turn the tide?
One of the worst aspects of the Trump candidacy is that he has turned many erstwhile reputable conservatives into servile a**-kissers trying their best to cover the stinking messes their slimy master has made.

Dunno, she accused her first husband of cheating on her while she was on TV.  Something he denies.   

You threw a host of insults at Newt (fat troll and so on) and implied she was innocent.    I simply posted that her marriage history isn't perfect.

Nobody's perfect.   Trump is a serial womanizer.    So is Hillary and her husband.   The double standard she is applying is quite obvious.

No they didn't just appear out of no where.  this isn't just a recent problem with Trump either.  There are 20 previous lawsuits he's had to settle over this very issue. That's a pattern of misconduct...not recent revelations by opportunistic trolls.

And besides...he opened the door for all of this to happen with the boats of being able to do what he wanted with women.

@skeeter

Megyn is an entertainer first and foremost.  She does whatever gets ratings.    I used to like her but she's become a hateful troll since she got this timeslot.

Gingrich made that point when he talked about the amount of time she spent on Wikileaks content vs the Trump charges. Regardless of what one thinks of the claims made by those ten women it is a very valid criticism of her show.

I do not believe there would be any difference in public interest in both stories if Kelly and the rest of the MSM would build and hammer them equally.

No one here is defending the Clintons.  That's an overly simplistic and false description.

We're showing they are merely two sides of the same coin.

Then it'd really be nice to see an equal amount of interest shown in the NEW material out there that is critical of either candidate.

Just saying.

Indeed I do.  I'm not one of the ones here saying "these women are either lying or deserved what they got" as some are doing.

   
No they didn't just appear out of no where.  this isn't just a recent problem with Trump either.  There are 20 previous lawsuits he's had to settle over this very issue. That's a pattern of misconduct...not recent revelations by opportunistic trolls.

And besides...he opened the door for all of this to happen with the boats of being able to do what he wanted with women.

Dunno, she accused her first husband of cheating on her while she was on TV.  Something he denies.   

Then you have no basis to try and equate the two of them.

Quote
You threw a host of insults at Newt (fat troll and so on) and implied she was innocent.    I simply posted that her marriage history isn't perfect.

I don't know anyone who is perfect in any aspect of their lives.  It's part of being human.  But, as we see, Kelly doesn't seem to have Gingrich's morally bankrupt history.

As for the insults I threw, sure.  I happen to share Dana Loesch's viewpoint on that kind of thing.  Some people deserve to be mocked, and I don't mind doing it.  If that makes me shallow to some, I don't really care.

Quote
Nobody's perfect.   Trump is a serial womanizer.    So is Hillary and her husband.   The double standard she is applying is quite obvious.

But there are varying degrees of imperfection, or sin, or whatever you want to call it, correct?  And it seems that Kelly doesn't even begin to approach the serial immorality of Gingrich and Trump. 

There was no doubles standard.  Bill Clinton isn't running for president, and there was no reason for her to accede to Gingrich's spittle-flecked demands that she parrot what he wanted her to.

I liked Newt last go round, enough to phone bank for him. Still respect his knowledge and his brain - there are few sharper practical Repubs out there.

He did get his ass handed to him, neatly sliced and wrapped, this interview.

It's really interesting how differently people see that interview.  I thought he very clearly got under her skin -- she obviously grew more angry as the interview went on.  She made two somewhat contradictory statements: 1) the massive time disparity is justified if Trump is a sexual predator, while conceding Newt's point that  2) we don't know if he is a sexual predator.  Well, if you don't know it, then the time disparity it not justified.

As much as Trump deserved to be hammered as a consequence of that first Fox-moderated primary debate, I also think Kelly has diminished herself by making a "Womyn's Crusade" the most important thing in this election.  I thought Newt's observation was generally correct, though he'd have been better off phrasing it as "gender issues" rather than "sex".  For Kelly and some other women, it at least seems that this election has morphed into venting about pent-up gender frustrations, which seems somewhat irrational to me given that who is elected likely isn't going to affect any of those underlying issues one tiny bit.  Kelly, at least, seems pretty obsessed by that, to the point where the "Womyn's Crusade" is not only the most important issue in the election, but actually more important than every other issue combined.

As a matter of politics, that may even be correct.  Pissed-off women likely will decide this election in Hillary's favor.  Though I think Newt is correct in pointing out that assigning such primacy to those issues shouldn't be the route for rational people.  And no, I'm not saying that means people should vote for Trump.  I'm simply saying that not voting for him solely on that basis seems rather messed up.

Wow.  I watched that interview three times and it is crystal clear that Newt was the one who lost his cool.  She responded very methodically to him and he responded emotionally.  Worst interview he's ever done, outside the one 20 years ago where he was bellyaching about having to sit in the back of a plane.

Look, I'm not saying that Newt didn't get angry.  But he's the interviewee, and is supposed to be partisan.  It's her job as the interviewer not to get emotionally involved in the subject matter, which she very clearly did.  At least in my opinion.  If his goal was to show that she has taken "a side" (and I think that was his primary goal), I think he succeeded.  If he comes across as angry, I don't think he much cares.

I don't think anything Gingrich, etc., can do would make Trump look better.  I think it is possible for surrogates like that make the media look worse by suggesting it is too heavily biased towards Hilary, and that makes her look worse.

Also, I do think there are some voters -- I'm one myself -- for whom the feeling that it is the media and Establishment deciding our elections is deeply disturbing.  It was actually the ganging up on Trump, and (to me) downplaying of Hillary's foibles that moved me from NeverTrump to NeverHillary.  The message Gingrich was trying to send was that "the fix is in", and hoping that has some appeal.  I  think it probably does.  Not enough to actually win the race on its own, but about the most you can ask/expect a surrogate to be able to do on behalf of a candidate.

In other words, Gingrich is making an appeal to the "vote for Trump just to stick it to them" crowd.

of other misdeeds by Bill.

Newt is not trying to appeal to people who have already decided how much they hate Trump and will not vote for him.  There's no point in it.  He's trying to appeal to people who are undecided/persuadable by pointing out to them how biased the media narrative is.

If you judge newt by the metric of "he didn't do anything to convince me that Trump isn't a scumbag who doesn't deserve my vote", then you're not whom Newt was targeting anyway.  So in terms of what I think Newt was aiming to do, and who he was trying to reach, I thought he did well as possible in the face of a journalist who is so openly opposed to a particular candidate.

Along those lines I heard a report from a non-Brietbartish source (can't remember exactly who but it was mainstream) that Trump currently has about 44% of the likely independent vote now, while Clinton has something in the 30's.

Dunno how significant this voter block is now but I was kinda surprised to hear this.

Well, if you fall into the category of people for whom whether a candidate cheated on their spouse is the most important issue in an election, Newt isn't trying to get you to vote for Trump anyway.  Trump's own record in that regard would make his surrogate's irrelevant anyway.

I read the interview and watched the first 5 minutes; where Kelly immediately tried to contradict his statement about the GOP may win PA.  Right away she tried to put him on the defensive. Secondly, Gingrich is correct ... where is the media coverage on Wikileaks revelations on Clinton.  Instead the MSM and FOX have focused on Trump and his sexual misconduct. Kelly is the one who got fired up; Gingrich was defending his point that the media is biased. Being a female, I certainly understand the concern of electing a sexual deviant, however, where is the focus on Hillary's sexual deviant husband and where is the coverage on her numerous scandals?   

IMHO Kelly continues to show her bias against Trump.  Anger issues?  Kelly is the one with anger issues.  She came across as a complete BIT**.

I do believe that the reality is Trump is behind in the polls and there is nothing that's going to boost his numbers.  We all knew he was the most likely to lose to Clinton. Unfortunately the Trumpsters wouldn't listen.  Not only are they going to be responsible for losing to Hillary but they will also be responsible for losing the Senate.

Newt Gingrich dares Megyn Kelly: 'Say Bill Clinton, sexual predator'
By Anna Giaritelli (@anna_giaritelli) • 10/25/16 10:46 PM

"If Trump is a sexual predator," Kelly asked Gingrich, referring to the 11 women who have come forward with claims he sexually harassed or assaulted them.

"He's not a sexual predator," Gingrich shot back. "You cannot defend that statement. I'm sick and tired of people like you using language that's inflammatory that's not true."

I told them vote their conscience.  From things they've said they are going to leave the presidential pick blank.  Which is probably the best option this year.

Michael Moore gave Donald Trump a full throated endorsement on a 2-3 minute video. It's on YouTube. It's one of the pieces of evidence that tells me Donald Trump will win this election with millions of unlikely first time voters carrying him over the finish line.

Will any Trump symp come out of this campaign with a better reputation than before they went in?  Doubtful.  Newt and Rudy are parodies.

Did you type "dirty talk with Howard Stern" and "objectifying" with a straight face?  LOL!!!

Trump is as big a sexual predator as Clinton.  How many women did he grope who won't come forward? 

This interview will do wonders to improve Trump's standing with women.

One of the things that "bugs" me about not supporting Trump is the lengths to which nevertrumpers will go to claim any Trump supporter was wrong and looked like a fool.

Gingrich absolutely destroyed Kelly. He exposed her as a hillary supporter, a tool of the establishment and a hypocrite. The final nail in her coffin was when she wouldn't call Bill clinton a sexual predator.

We remember Speaker Gingrich in 2012 when he slapped down the questioner in the moderated primary debate in Georgia. It was a salacious question meant to damage the Speaker. However, Gingrich brilliantly pointed out the biased questioning with a few choice words, and we all cheered.

Now that Speaker Gingrich is supporting our America First republican nominee, the NeverTrump/Hillary-for-president contingent here throws him under the bus and instead cheers the biased questioner.  I refer specifically to stinkspur.

We're not blind. We see what you NeverTrumpers are doing.

Jeez, I hate lining up with trump supporters, but on this you are right.

It's too bad that Trump supporters can't see how they were manipulated by Fox News during the primaries. The candidates that could beat hillary were largely ignored and Fox was all in for Trump 24/7. In the general that coverage has shifted to "growing concerns" about Trump's flaws, none of which they warned primary voters about before.

In their emotionally altered universe, NeverTrumpers have thrown every single lifetime, solid conservative supporter of the REPUBLICAN NOMINEE under the ....  under the bus888

For their part, it's an astounding alteration of reality.

You don't think she's pissed off when she mentions his "anger issues" at the end?

Look, I'm not saying that Newt didn't get angry.  But he's the interviewee, and is supposed to be partisan.  It's her job as the interviewer not to get emotionally involved in the subject matter, which she very clearly did.  At least in my opinion.  If his goal was to show that she has taken "a side" (and I think that was his primary goal), I think he succeeded.  If he comes across as angry, I don't think he much cares.

Good points.

Also, his anger was well justified by her bias and initial claim that Trump is a sexual predator, which he got her to retract and qualify with the word "if".  Her refusal to call bill clinton a proven sexual predator proved Gingrich was correct about her bias and establishment support.

Gingrich made that point when he talked about the amount of time she spent on Wikileaks content vs the Trump charges.

He was addressing the huge disparity in the amount of time the networks spent on the two stories. On that he has a point. But he can't paint all the media with the same brush. There are media outlets -- or at least individual journalists -- that are balanced in their coverage. IMHO, the tougher the better. My exception would be if the interviewer didn't allow the interviewee the opportunity to answer questions. Otherwise, I like tough interviews.

Newt wet his pants in this interview. I just saw Betsy McCaughey on CNN and thought she was going to hyperventilate. She stuttered and said wacky things (the brother of a white woman might be black) to justify why a white woman was holding a "Blacks for Trump" sign.

Both Gingrich and McCaughey are smart people, yet they look out of control when trying to defend the loser who is the Republican POTUS nominee. I honestly don't believe the Republican party can rebuild after this. So many have chosen to take a hit to their integrity for the sake of supporting Trump. They'll never be seen in the same light again.

Most of us reading TBR are uncomfortable with Trump's background and campaign strategy, and any support is lukewarm at best.  However in my view, Kelly made a fool of herself in the Pence interview preceding the Newt blowup.  She was disrespectful to the VP nominee.  Listen to her questions and watch her facial expressions.  It was like she was just itching for a fight!  As one would expect, Newt was not having any of condescending attitude and gave her more that she bargained for.

One thing a lot of people do not realize is when a guy has billions of dollars as well as a reputation of a womanizer he does not need to chase women and impose on them rudely. They literally come out of the woodwork, all either wanting their chance at fame or fortune. Most see lots and lots of dollars, gifts, jewelry, cash, trips, fancy jets and more, all for the chance to notch their belt so to speak.

I for one do not believe Trump is guilty of all these instances. He may have gotten "signals" from some of these gals, maybe denying them their chances at fame. I for one hope he does sue the snot outta these women and put them on the stand under oath as some of their stories will change when the risk of lying under oath rises.

I just hope our representative republic can survive either 4 yrs. of this meglomaniac or 4 years of absolutely the worst woman in history.

Mark Levin just led off his show trashing Megyn Kelly. As somebody who's not particularly a fan of Trump, Kelly, or Gingrich, I will say that it seemed pretty obvious that Gingrich lost his mind and came off looking pretty agitated and uncollected.

Why is it that everybody who is otherwise a "conservative" seemingly has to sacrifice all intellectual honesty once they jump on board the Trump bandwagon? I listened to a woman on Beck's show this morning and, like them, felt as if I must have been watching an entirely different interview. I simply don't get it.

My life is getting awful quiet without any intellectual radio. I used to treasure my time in the woodshop with evening talk but there's nothing left that doesn't make me want to throw things.

I thought Megyn was unbearable..

Agreed.  I've never been able to watch her. 

Two unbearable people arguing with each other.

I should have added: it's unbelievable how the media is avoiding saying anything about Clinton.

It all depends what you think the purpose/focus of the interview was.   If you think the focus of the interview was Trump's own behavior, you probably think Kelly came off well.  If you think it was media bias, you'd think Gingrich won.  Kelly and Gingrich themselves were viewing it from opposite perspectives, which is why it was a trainwreck.

I don't think so!  I think Newt gave as much as he got and I STILL can't stand HRC or DJT! Won't vote fore either of them and I'm sick of stupid voters allowing the media to pick our candidates for us as well.

It is really a travesty that the American public is stuck with two miserable candidates for the highest office in the land.

A crook and a creep.

On that I completely agree but we likely disagree on how we got them!

I agree it was a trainwreck, but I don't agree as to why. Gingrich immediately tried to stifle the line of questioning and when the failed, he got angry and tried to deflect. That too failed and he started coming unglued.

Bringing up Bill Clinton makes no sense to me for multiple reasons. One, the exact same lines of attack used by leftists to defend Clinton and smear his accusers are being used now by Trump supporters. Two, Bill Clinton isn't running for office. We know he's a shitbag. He was impeached because of it. This isn't news. What would be news would be a story where Hillary enabled his behavior or something along those lines. I'm not saying she hasn't (and she has certainly attacked his accusers on her own), but Bill's actions have only minimal relevance in this regard. I don't think bringing up Bill helps Trump at all.

Of course, in my ideal world we wouldn't even be having this discussion as Cruz would be up 10 and Rubio would be up 20. Instead we're stuck with this, and I am not putting myself in the position of defending somebody accused of such things.

The point of discussing this is, regardless of who the two individuals are who are representing their party in this election, the press, which enjoys a special place in our governmental system, are massively and openly abusing the trust put in them and the special privileges allowed them by actively and in concert working to overturn the will of the people.

To be fair - overturning the will of half the people.  :shrug:

But I do agree. The press should be information providers. Not gatekeepers.

Kind of a metaphor for what goes on here. Both sides have been talking past each other for weeks.
