you know, donald trump has used megyn kelly as a foil before.ly got a lot of attention for it. so he's seeing a field right now where he is at the very least stopped rising. maybe hit a plateau. in some polls you've seen a little bit of an erosion from him. and i think he's got to keep himself in the news. keep himself, you know, sticking and moving, as it were. and megyn kelly, unfortunately for her, has to deal with being his foil. >> hmm. all right. let's move over to hillary clinton because she's dealing with something that just won't go away, either. that's these personal e-mails while she was secretary of state. and you know, they were previously thought to have been wiped from a computer. but, ah-ha, they have been recovered. any idea what's in those e-mails? >> you know, hillary clinton has said before that this is something about her yoga routine, and her, you know, personal communications with her family. i'm sure there's some of that. but there's a lot of e-mail here. and the question's going to be whether we see it? whether the publi

>> and he knows it. >> megyn kelly, i mean you had this loser on last night this guy lowry.he lost control of himself. it was actually sad. >> working through what seems to be a very co-dependent relationship, a fox news person said fox news chairman and the ceo and donald trump spoke this morning and plan to have a meeting next week to discuss their differences of opinion regarding fox's conference of mr. trump's presidential ca >> people can say whatever they want, but that's not good stuf >> while he remains on top in political polls, our celebrity heat index suggests a slowing in momentum. online sentiment is 62% negative. the positive tweets coming mostly from pe congratulating him on the news that oldest daughter ivanka is expecting her third child due this spring. >> maybe something happens. maybe people fall out of love with me. certainly that can happen. i don't think it will. >> but the donald is still a dream come true for comics. so the people behind "south park" are taking serious heat for their episode last night. >> how did a u.s. citizen get past my wall? >>

megyn kelly, they had this loser lowery on there and he lost control with what he said and i guess you got to take a guy like that off the air. i was actually watching on a plane that came back from south carolina. we had an amazing day in south carolina. it was amazing with the crowds. i will tell you i've never seen anything like it. the level of hatred from him and george will. they said i wouldn't run and after i ran they said he's just doing this for fun and having a good time. this isn't about having a good time. it's about making america great again. the level of hatred is incredible. >> most politicians ignore puit and go their own way. at some point, you know there's people you would term haters out there. at what point do you stop those fights and start focussing on what's happening in syria, with taxes and debt and a lot of the other issues. >> i think that a lot of people would not ignore if they had a certain degree. there's a thing called twitter and facebook which is amazing actually. it's like owning the new york times without losses. if you add all of the different thi

he sits there stone-faced, almost the way that megyn kelly did that night.. >> stone-cased like this. you're looking at him deciding if he's going to get fired or not. the drama, but now he's a contestant himself. >> he has the same face, that scowl. >> yeah. pursed hips, a pursed lips. i am fascinated. i've never seen politics like this, left, right or center. no how long can he keep up this thing? donald trump against the republican establishment? >> how well? i said a few weeks ago anybody who underestimated him was a little short-sighted who counted him out. three or four weeks ago, never thought higher than 20 or 30. >> is this a person or the guy you meet? >> i think for the most part, yeah. he's a nice person, and he's a nice person and he's very gracious in person, but i think after so many years of creating a persona, it's hard to shed it at any point, and somewhere along the lines, someone told him never apologize for anything. this is what success looks like. and i think he keeps that up. >> so many apologies are phony because you're pressured int

and, quote, i think megyn kelly should take another 11 days unscheduled vacation.hat was referring to off she took after the debate. >> i'm clearly talking to cnn. >> reporter: appreciate it. >> this on again/off again relationship with fox seems to be off again, at least for the time being. >> it sure does. it's like he's playing his greatest hits. it's classic for him to go after megyn kelly in particular with highly personal criticisms. trump watches all the coverage, he watches fox, he reads all the papers, he reads owl the web sites and he reacts in real time. that's very different from many candidates or many celebrities. many say i don't watch or read what's said about me. trump is watching. trump said they've had enough, they're fed up with the personal attacks so they're retaliating with a pretty strong statement and to take him off the airwaves. >> i guess the question is, and i'm not sure there's an answer to this, does this help donald trump with his core supporters? does it make them feel like they need to rally to his side or does it make him seem thi

i'm megyn kelly. this rivalry has been simmering for weeks but in the last few days it's erupted as trump continued to go after bush for being low energy, being part of the establishment and even for speaking spanish in response to a question asked in spanish on the campaign trail. bush pushed back first with campaign ads, then remark to the press and tonight in a town hall campaign stop in new hampshire, he made it clear that it is on. watch. >> donald trump has proposed in the most recent past the highest tax increase in american history. donald trump, aspiring to president, still believes that the canadian health care system is really good and works in scotland. this guy is not a conservative. this guy does not believe in the greatness of our country. my belief is that most people are conservative. they just haven't been asked yet. yeah, maybe a little in spanish. >> donald trump says anyone who criticizes him with automatically go down in the polls. are you concerned about going down in the polls?

she's high he over rated and quote i think megyn kelly should take another 11-day unscheduled vacation, referring to time off kelly had after the fox debate. here is what he said to randi kaye. >> reporter: as cnn, i'm glad you're talking to us, not talking to fox news, is that the deal? >> we'll see what happens. i'm certainly talking to cnn. >> reporter: thank you, appreciate it. >> joining me now is brian. this on again, off again relationship with fox certainly seems to be off again at least for the time being. >> it sure does, anderson. almost as if donald trump is like a hmusician playing a great hit. to go after fox and megyn kelly with high he personal criticisms. it's almost as if there is a direct feedback between trump and the media. he watches all the coverage. he watches us. he watches fox. he reads all the papers. he reads all the websites and reacts in realtime. that's very different from many other candidates and frankly many other celebrities, many who say i don't read my press and don't watch what is said about me. trump is watching and reacting in realtime and today

i think megyn kelly should take another unscheduled vacation. and he defended his recent response by an audience member at a rally. >> here you had a bigot. >> you don't know that. but look -- >> a problem in this country and it's muslims. >> so,io asaid there's a problem in this country and there's muss lms. i love the muslims. people living in this building, muslims but like anything else, you have people where there are problems. we can say there's no problems, there's no terrorism, no anything, they didn't knock down the world trade center. to the best of my knowledge, they didn't fly back to sweden. >> and last night, he appeared on "the late show" with steven colbert. they played a game called who said it. >> that would be you because i would never say a thing like that. >> very good. i think apologizing is a great thing but you have to be wrong. i will absolutely apologize sometime in the distant future if i'm ever wrong. >> that's me. >> nbc's hally jackson has the latest on two gop front runners. >> reporter: under fire for his controve

i've just been handed a tweet he did about megyn kelly. some probably within the last hour during her show. he said, do you ever notice that lightweight megyn kelly con sfantly goes after me, but when i hit back, it is totally sexist? she is highly overrated. >> can i make the point that he watches so much tv? doesn't he have other things to do? >> no, no. he's home in his pajamas eating ice cream. >> that's a lot of tv. >> and joy, the fox dynamic here is fashion nating. -- fascinating. greta van susteren came out and said cut it out. he had a soft interview on her show. >> donald trump seems like the commenter on every youtube video. he is obsessed. i hate to agree with bill o'reilly, but he does seem to be obsessed with anything he sees as an infraction or someone being mean to him or someone just not being nice to them. he literally is almost threatening fox news that they better give him positive, glowing media coverage or else he's going to tweet nasty things at them, i guess? it doesn't make any sense, but it does give you a window

eastern launched another attack on megyn kelly. >> do you ever notice that lightweight megyn kelly constantly goes after me. but when i hit back it is. >> here you had a bigot you could have slapped down. >> you don't know that. he asked a question. you don't know he was a bigot. >> a problem in this country and there is muslims. >> all right. i love the muslims. i have many many friends. people living in this building. muslims. they are phenomenal people. but like everything else you have people where there are problems. we could say there are no problems with the muslims. there is no terrorism. there is no anything. they didn't knock down the world trade centerth to my knowledge the people that knocked down the world trade center you know where they -- they didn't fly back to sweden. >> and last night trump played on the late show with steven colbert and then played a game of "who said it". >> i apologize for being perfect. >> that would be you. >> very good. >> i think apologizing is a great thing but you have to be wrong. i will absolutely apologize sometime in the hopefully in the distan

he's started tweeting negative thing about megyn kelly and a number of other contributors. fox fired back saying the attacks have gotten stale and tiresome. trump and roger ailes are going to meet this week. >> i'm disappointed he hasn't gotten after you, howie. no, i think the worry should be if you're a trump supporter, which is sounding a lot like whining. there's a point where this is crossing over, i think, where it does sound thin-skinned, it doesn't sound virtuous, like he's sticking up for himself. that interview with cbs you showed earlier, c'mon, it's over the top. i think he's in danger of crossing over to a place. >> and it started with the megyn kelly question, where she asked, is this the temp raboerament of president. >> the leader of the country needs to be someone who doesn't speak disparagely of anyone, and he's doubled down on his assault on women when he talked about carly fiorina's face. he does come across as a misogynist. there have been a lot of anti-trump -- i thought rich lowery went to far when he said on megyn kelly's show, he used a crude term t

because she forgot the civil war and she keeps trying to do this give power thing like defending megyn kelly by claiming donald trump was talking about menstration. which i thought was silly. the whole ad is the girl power thing. republicans don't do girl team. trump is winning a majority of women. republican women don't vote because oh you're a girl. that's how the democrats vote. that's why hillary is talking about her mother suffered so much as a child. no men vote for the democratic party. they are relying on the women. >> wasn't it refreshing to see the women's faces and then she said we are the party of conch. she didn't play the victim card or the special interest card. she said women's issues are everyone's issues. >> she played the girl power card. i can't stand it. >> i like when you play the girl power card, but you don't act as if one party has a lock on the women's vote. i think that's cool. >> i think it is cool and i thought it was a brilliant move by her. she took the high road. she could have showed a picture of trump saying imagine this face for the next four years. she did

even know with the megyn kelly thing, there have been other instances where there have been questionsbout trump's attitudes towards women. i think this has a lot of peril. you see leading republican voices, consultants, others speaking out about what he said. and it does make it possible that again, in iowa, this could create a huge gender gap that could be a problem down the road. john: look, this is an issue where you have got, the republican party recognizes it has a problem with female voters to begin with. if trump gets cast as a misogynists by the women of the republican party, that will effectively foreclose the ability he would ever have to get the nomination. i'm not saying he is there yet, but between this and the megyn kelly thing, he started to get close to that territory. so, let's talk about jindal and jeb. what you think about those two fights? mark: i think the jindal thing is going to be chalked up as an attempt to save his campaign. he is doing better. it is going to be fascinating at the debate next week. a lot of times in politics, you see candidates fight in publi

relations between the network and the candidate chilly since megyn kelly asked this question in the first debate. >> you've called women you don't like fat pigs, dogs, slobs and >> reporter: more than six weeks later, trump is still trashing kelly. in a tweet last night, calling her "a lightweight." today, trump speaking to a half 'em tip room in south carolina, turning his fire on another woman. surging candidate carly fiorina. >> she's fighting to raise money. and her business career was a disaster. and nobody wants to say it. they say, you can't say that, because it's sexist. >> reporter: fiorina giving it right back. >> leadership is not about how big your office is, how big your title is, how big your airplane or your helicopter or your ego is. leadership is about service. >> reporter: david, car lie fiorina did have kwind words for hill little clinton today, saying she has empathy for herald would never personally attack her. as for donald trump, his campaign says they have another rally in south carolina tonight. they're expecting 2,100 people. david? >> tom llamas covering every s

he takes on the beloved megyn kelly. doesn't matter. keep going up and up and up. i think people are responding to what they perceive his authenticity, outsidedness and candor. >> jimmy: he is very candid. his secret probably is that he actually answers -- just one of the frustrating things about watching an interview with the politicians is they never really want to answer the question the way you ask them. >> it's the worst. i know this from my day job, and i'm worried about it for tomorrow night a little bit, we're going to be giving these candidates an opportunity to really go at each other on leadership. and you know some of them are going to say, you know, they're going to pivot immediately to their seven-point plan for reforming the department of housing and urban development and that's -- i think voters eyes glaze over. i think that's one of the reasons why people listen to trump is at least entertains the question. he might call it stupid but he entertains the question. >> jimmy: we want to see wrestling. we want to see people fighting. would you consider

i'm megyn kelly. it began in 2012 when an unarmed black teenager named trayvon martin was killed by george zimmerman. the incident inspired the country's first black president to suggest that african americans look at these kinds of issues through a quote different set of experiences. ooh little over a year later a young black man named michael brown was shot in ferguson, missouri, killed by a white police officer who was never charged by the grand jury and ultimately exonerated by the department of justice. by the time that officer's name was cleared, the movement had already accepted the narrative that cops killing young black americans had become an epidemic. and indeed cases continued to make the headlines. eric garner, freddie gray, sandra bland to name just a few. police were found not responsible if most of these cases but those results were questioned and soon the protests took on a confrontation tall tone. the chants of black lives matter began to be mixed with messages aimed straight at the

the first republican presidential debate was i think trump versus kelly as in megyn kelly with the front runner getting sharpest challenge from the moderator. it made tv ratings history. tonight get ready for one hell of a sequel. the first round battle i believe should feature trump versus moderator in this case tapper on the record saying he wants to get the candidates fighting with each other. i expect trump to make him eat those words. 11 republican presidential candidates will take the stage less than an hour from now. center stage so far immovable object himself, donald trump. he cemented front runner status and declared war on the entire field. the attack is on his back tonight. next to trump is the guy with the hot hand, dr. ben carson. the retired neurosurgeon surged into a strong second place. then carly fiorina, the only woman in the republican race rallied into primetime. trump has gone after her looks, believe it or not. get ready for fireworks because she has promised a show tonight. and by the way i think she is in an excellent position to make tomorrow's headlines. expect

when he made those comments about megyn kelly. this guy seemingly is able to escape everything in the past would take out another type of candidate. how is he able to do that? >> he's really defying conventional political wisdom. the rules of political physics don't seem to apply to him. i have a footnote on that. bloomberg politics, we do the iowa poll. i spent the first half of my week sort of looking at the trump phenomena and writing about the i i electorate. what they like about him out in iowa is he's rich, he's independent. those are all things that normally would be, you know, negative for at least a republican candidate. so it's -- you know, he's defying -- he's just defying conventional wisdom at every turn. today's moment, it's not a real contract. that said, mr. trump workings in the real estate industry, so i bet he's got some very good contract lawyers who could help him with this. >> yeah. i believe we have sound of trump saying what happens when people attack him, how they go down in the polls. can we play that? >>

in the first debate i predicted a battle between him and megyn kelly because they both have the same approach to a debate. this time around i think trump is going to be smart and grab ahold of jake tapper's comments. tapper says he wants to get the politicians into a fight with each other. he is going to say what is the moderator's job to separate us and not to get us to fight each other. we have a moderator trying to get us into a stupid side fight. i would say the big news will be fight with tapper. then you see a fight with fiorina to get her in the head lines. these guys don't understand. jimmy carter tried to attack reagan. you don't attack the other guy. you wait for him to tag you and then in your counter attack your spontaneous reaction in the heavyweight division or not. these guys can't go in with big tanks rolling into the room with them. trump will make a fool of them if they try to do that. they will see it and he will be laughable. this idea they are going to take him on is such a joke. it's not how you win a debate. you win a debate by being quick on your feet. they ha

he took to twitter writing, wow, megyn kelly really bombed tonight.ld on twitter. funny to watch. any of tonight's moderators could be trump or any other candidate's newest victim if they don't appreciate a certain question. tonight's debate moderators are cnn's chief washington correspondent jake tapper, cnn political correspondent dana bash, and conservative talk radio host hugh hewitt. trump's already attacked hewitt for asking him so-called gotcha foreign policy questions in a recent interview. so tonight's dynamic between trump and hugh hewitt should be real interesting to say the least. we'll be right back. >>> republican candidates for president will face off in just a few short hours but the democratic lieutenant governor of california said he is ready for a debate right now. gaven newsome is taking on donald trump's immigration policy. >> this week california will be hosting a republican presidential debate. that means donald trump will be paying us a visit. it's a perfect time to show you a truth behind his immigration ideas and how they wil

>> i think the difference between what happened with hugh hewitt and what megyn kelly did, megyn kelly was asking trump about his own statements. which is legitimate. on foreign policy there's actually a difference. not to defend donald trump who i think for a lot of different questions should be questioned on everything he says and does. who is the leader of iran and who is the leader of the quds forces. i doubt most journalists could. most people know who zawahiri is. do they? i don't know. most will dismiss this as smarty-pantsism on the part of mr. hewitt who is a harvard guy and intellectual right winger host. i don't think it will hurt trump at all with his fans. >> today marco rubio told cnn that trump's response to hugh hewitt's questions is a red flag. >> i think if you don't the answer to those questions, you're not going to be able to serve as commander in chief. it should be part of the reason you're running is you understand the threats that the world is facing. you have a deep understanding and an understanding of what to do about them. and if someone doesn't, i think it'

carly fiorina responded on megyn kelly's news show. >> i think those comments respond for themselves. and the voters helping me climb in the polls. >> what do you take that to mean? "look at that face, would anyone vote for that?" >> i have no idea. honestly, megyn, i will not spend a single cycle wondering what donald trump means. maybe i'm getting under his skin a bit. >> then ben carson running second to trump in many recent polls. at a campaign rally, carson shifted his strategy taking a personal shot at trump questioning the authenticity of his faith. >> by humility and the fear of the lord our riches and honor in life. that's a big part of what i am. i don't get that impression with him. maybe i'm wrong. i don't get that impression. >> trump fired back overnight in a tweet saying wow. i'm ahead of the field in evangelicals and other groups. and ben carson just took a wipe at me. >> going after carson directly and now carson gives him a reason to. one candidate still playing nice with donald trump and getting the same in return. ted cruz. they shared hugs at the rally on the iran

i'm megyn kelly. take a look at what is happening on the other hand with dr. ben carson, carlie fiorina and senator rubio. bold moves have led to significant gains. we also have dramatic new numbers on how everyone did at that debate. we want to bring in fox news digital politics editor who served under george w. bush and also co-host as the five here right on fnc. donald trump is still the front runner and hasn't lost any. in fact, gained a point from our last poll. but the line for him looks like this. and what does it tell us? >> well, it tells us that actually, it's the exact same vote share he had before. so for seven weeks, donald trump has sat in the front of the pac of the republican party. he looks to be short of doing what mitt romney was doing in the 2012 election was. he got out to a lead and he's trying to hit on it. he's trying to run out the clock. but he's got a lot of clock to run out. now, as jeb bush continues to -- low energy -- he's sliding to sixth in the poll and now trump has a

megyn kelly was not debating with donald trump she was questioning donald trump. she was constrained by her role as journalist. but carly fiorina does not have those constraints. and she is a very tough and well-informed debater. bill: cnn has a poll out to show trump is the first candidate to get above the 30% side. >> we heard all this talk about the summer of trump and the unusually high poll ratings would begin to go down. the summer hasn't ended in donald trump's poll numbers are the measure of that. he's starting with some big rallies. he has a big rally in dallas, then of course the big debate that could restructure things like the fox news debate did in august. bill: he's the most photographed guy. byron, thanks. martha: before those comments became the talk of the day trump was at a rally to kill the iran deal. he said his only focus is to win the election. >> it will change. we'll have so much winning when i get elected you may get bored with winning. i agree, you will never get bored with winning. we never get bored. martha: peter who is jindal suggesti

i'm megyn kelly. hours ago a judge unexpectedly ordered the release of kim davis, a county clerk in kentucky. she left the lockup flanked by her lawyer and presidential candidate mike huckabee. five days ago a federal judge ordered davis behind bars after she refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. today thousands of supporters turned out at the carter county detention center where governor huckabee brought mrs. davis to the stage and for the first time in days we heard directly from the woman at the heart of a new political fire storm. >> maybe you would like to personally express your thanks to the person who had the courage to cause a lot of people to start standing up, a person whose courage exceeds that of 99.9% of the politicians in this country and exceeds a bunch of even the pastors of this country. i believe her act is going to people. the politicians, the would you please help me welcome kim davis? ♪ ♪ rising up back on the street ♪ ♪ went the distance now i'm back on my feet

do you think he meant to disrespect megyn kelly? >> no, i don't. -- at that forum, i'm not sure that question should have even been brought up by her. but, you know, we all put our foot in our mouths sometimes. you know, we've all been there. you know, when he becomes president, which he will, hopefully he'll tone it down a little bit. you know, you look at his children. look at all of his kids. have they ever made the news with negative publicity? no, so he must be doing something right. ivanka -- call me ivanka. >> ivanka is pretty amazing. barbara, thank you for joining me this morning. appreciate it. >> thank you so much. bye. >>> and good morning. i'm carol costello. thank you so much for joining me. republicans have made no secret of the need to broaden their tent to win back the white house. in particular, score big with hispanic voters. now jeb bush is debuting a new ad that not only spotlights his ability to speak spanish but also has someone he refers to as his secret weapon. his mexican-born wife. >> i have my life here. i agree we all h

he sits there stone-faced, almost the way that megyn kelly did that night.. >> stone-cased like this. you're looking at him deciding if he's going to get fired or not. the drama, but now he's a contestant himself. >> he has the same face, that scowl. >> yeah. pursed lips. i am fascinated. i've never seen politics like this, left, right or center. no how long can he keep up this thing? donald trump against the republican establishment? >> how well? i said a few weeks ago anybody who underestimated him was a little short-sighted who counted him out. three or four weeks ago, never thought higher than 20 or 30. >> is this a person or the guy you meet? >> i think for the most part, yeah. he's a nice person, and he's a nice person and he's very gracious in person, but i think after so many years of creating a persona, it's hard to shed it at any point, and somewhere along the lines, someone told him never apologize for anything. this is what success looks like. and i think he keeps that up. >> so many apologies are phony because you're pressured into it. >> he did

on twitter @megyn kelly. we'll be back live at midnight with fair and balanced coverage of the gop debate. frank lutz and his focus group with ben carson, marc thiessen, ann coulter. it goes on. i'm megyn kelly. this is "the kelly file." >>> welcome to "hannity." tonight 2016 gop rivals squared off in the second republican primary debate at the ronald reagan presidential library in simi valley, california. joining us live from the spin room is campaign carl cameron. a lot of fireworks. looks like they wanted to pit one against the other, carl and somewhat successfully. >> a good deal of this has about statements the candidates have made and having them relitigate it. donald trump has gotten far and away the most attention. he's been slamming his poents and some have been slamming him back. he was asked about the military. he said he's going to do it big. he's a militaristic person. he went to a prestigious military prep school. but that's about the extent of it. he's been arguing with carly fiorina very exten

he insulted m eed megyn kelly, mccain and hispanic and he keeps going up. the facts he doesn't know the names of terrorist leaders, why would that affect him and to his defense in one tiny way during the interview he kept on saying you mean kurds? >> the confusion with kurds doesn't make sense. i think there's an interesting debate here and that's what is the purpose of center right media conservative when fox news asked donald trump tough questions, megyn kelly came under attack and fox news in some cases came under attack. hugh hewitt is doing a similar thing. rather than carry water for donald trump, he's vetting him hoping the republican nominee is someone prepared to take on hillary clinton. i think that's a service. >> it's our job to ask questions but all too often in the last three months journalists have jumped to conclusions. this is going to hurt him. this is going to kill him. he's going to drop now. some people are learning that's not the case. i want to take time to play for you back and forth between donald trump and jeb bush. we'll start wit

i'm megyn kelly reporting tonight from sacramento. it is not lost on us that this is also a day that our nation pauses to grieve and remember the nearly 3,000 innocent souls who lost their lives on a september day 14 years ago. tonight we honor them and the heroes who put their lives on the line every single day so that the rest of us might live in peace and security. that includes the young men you will meet tonight. friends who were in the right place at the right time. and their actions changed history. this is their story. they were tourists. he was a terrorist. and without their courage scores of people could have been killed. friday, august 21st, just after 3:00 p.m. three lifelong friends from california board a train in am taxpaya amsterdam, and alek skarlatos, fresh from a tour. the three met and their lives were changed forever by what happened on board that train. >> we begin in france with a story that sounds like something out of a hollywood thriller that stars three very real american heroes. >> about two hours into the
