Donald Trump really does not like uppity women who dare ask him tough questions, or who remind him of his misogyny. In this he has everything in common with his fellow GOP presidential hopefuls. But The Donald was not content to merely shush Megyn Kelly. He had to trash her. And he had plenty of help from his fanboys on Twitter.
Angered as he was by this during the debate, where he made his feelings very clear with not-so-subtle threats, he saved his worst for after. According to Trump, she is not only overrated, but was biased and unprofessional, and his fans agreed:
Wow, @megynkelly really bombed tonight. People are going wild on twitter! Funny to watch.

"@FrankLuntz: I'm getting a lot of @MegynKelly hatemail tonight. 🖀 #GOPDebate" She is totally overrated and angry. She really bombed tonite
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
I really enjoyed the debate tonight even though the @FoxNews trio, especially @megynkelly, was not very good or professional!

Megyn Kelly finally figured out what it takes to anger conservatives: ask Donald Trump questions.
"@RubenMMoreno: @realDonaldTrump The biggest loser in the debate was @megynkelly. You can't out trump Donald Trump. You will lose!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
One Trumpite was so angry he called her a bimbo. By retweeting it, Trump was also calling her a bimbo:
"@timjcam: @megynkelly @FrankLuntz @realDonaldTrump Fox viewers give low marks to bimbo @MegynKelly will consider other programs!"
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
Others were just as angry:
"@stinger_inc: @realDonaldTrump @megynkelly's behaviour at the #GOPDebate was astonishingly biased."
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
"@ElvisFever: @megynkelly @FoxNews Out to get you with baited questions. She was angry at you. Very hostile and unprofessional"
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
And of course, by asking Trump questions, Kelly proved she had a hidden agenda, no doubt a provocateur sent by the Establishment to undermine America’s Last Great Hope:
"@Reid2962: @realDonaldTrump @FoxNews I expected better from @megynkelly, wondering what is her hidden agenda.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
She even got accused of doing a “hatchet job” on Trump, and of trying to “take him out” like some sort of assassin:
"@Diplomt: @realDonaldTrump is in a greater position w/ 52% to 12% @Drudge_Report even after @MegynKelly & @BretBaier tried to take him out.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 7, 2015
Fox News created a monster, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind named Donald Trump, who despite all the imagined persecution heaped his way, had no problem proclaiming himself the overwhelming victor.
It promises to get only better, so make sure you’re survival gear includes plenty of popcorn. We are just getting started.
