Trump being Trump has cost him at least one invitation tonight. His comment towards Megyn Kelly ('she had blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever') was apparently too much for that conservative group.

I am curious to see the next public poll that reflects the debate performance. I know I've seen some stories and tweets that Trump did great, but I still think he bombed and will take a huge drop in the next poll that comes out. And his silly 3 am tweets probably don't help either.

Disinviting and manipulating the process is wrong. If his comments strike a nerve with voters, they will remove him from events.

Megyn Kelly was embarrassing, but Trump needs to let it go. Now he is embarrassing and is turning what was a win this morning into a loss. Can't complain though. He is helping my guy (Cruz)

The selective outrage by Eriksonn is truly funny. Here's some of his quotes.

Erickson has tweeted controversial remarks regarding feminists, including (in response to a 2010 Super Bowl ad) the following: "That's what the feminazis were enraged over? Seriously?!? Wow. That's what being too ugly to get a date does to your brain" [35] and "Turned on twitter today and there was a barrage of angry feminists upset with me telling them to get in the kitchen and learn to cook"; "Good thing I didn't suggest the feminists ... you know ... shave. They'd be at my house trying a post-birth abortion on me"; "Feminists have no sense of humor, but clearly God did in creating feminists.";[36]

Did Megan Kelly ever comment on what Trump said.

All this neg press towards Trump only helps him gain more supporters.

I think the perception is it's him against the dems, reps, and media. People are fed up with both parties and the press. The more they attack him the more people will support him.

He will have to really really screw up to start losing them. Similar to Clayton Williams governor run for Texas against Ann Richards. He had it in the bag until his rape comment.

Trump just made Red State irrelevant.

The hits just keep on coming. I love a world where conservatives now have to pick between Kelly and Trump.

This. The media shouldn't be manipulating the process.

I have no problems with any of the questions asked in the debate. Also, after 7 years of a thinned skin president, I'm more looking forward to someone who doesnt get butthurt as much.

Everyone got tough questions based upon issues they've had problems with in the past. If you are a serious candidate, you learn how to respond to those to put them to bed. Yo udont get butthurt over it.

At some point in the next millenium, the democrats may start asking hard questions of their candidates. Instead, the stumble on the easy questions, such as explaining the difference between democrats and socialists.

Come on libs, I know its a short bus, but given who's currently aboard, there's still plenty of room in there.

It's pretty obvious that the establishment doesn't want Trump running. The question posed to Trump doesn't even deal with politics. Megyn would do good by not being so thin skinned, she should leave that to my in-laws. It's obvious she wasn't in the military where most everything goes. If I had to fight every time I felt insulted I'd be a boxer instead of a fireman. Get over it Megyn.

The only thing I don't want is Trump doing what obama is an expert at, division. If he goes indy he'll take a whole bunch of votes with him, none democratic.

I just the base to keep supporting Trump so the world can see what neanderthals, these people are.

My suggestion is for the churchmouse Republican establishment to continue to try to shove the guy leading the polls rudely out into the cold where he will most likely run a third-party campaign that shoves them out into the cold.

I'm no Trump fan, but I sure enjoy him holding those timid politically correct butts over the fire.

GOP establishment keeps poking the bear, they might not like what happens. Pat Buchannan left the GOP after being treated like crap in 1999 so GOP poster child "W" could win. Buchannan didn't run third party in spite of being treated poorly, Trump will run third party as revenge for being treated poorly. A Trump 3rd party run would give the democrats a 50 state landslide.

Plus control of the house and senate.

You mean it was somehow relevant before this?

Trump calls his critics politically correct but it has nothing to do with PC. That is the go to escape valve. The fact is that it isn't about PC but about being an *******. Trump is the most crude, disrespectful public figure in recent memory. He has no shame, no conscience, and way too much ego. I really think it is him with the thin skin. Call him on his behavior and he denies, brags, attacks and/or deflects.

If you look at how consistently Trump over reacts to any perceived slight, it's hard to then argue that he's some sort of tough guy who doesn't care what the media or polls think.

He takes the bait every. single. time.

Yeah, I laugh at the people who claim Trump doesn't get all butthurt.

Trump is the chief high grand poobah of butthurt.

Has he ever, once in his life, shrugged off a perceived slight?
