Donald Trump Praises Newt Gingrich for His Exchange With Megyn Kelly

Source: NY Times

Trump interrupted a promotion for his new hotel in Washington to shower praise on Newt Gingrich for confronting the Fox News host Megyn Kelly on Tuesday night, when the former House speaker said in an interview that she was “fascinated with sex” in her reporting on Mr. Trump’s treatment of women.

Speaking at a gold-gilded lectern at the Trump International Hotel on Pennsylvania Avenue on Wednesday, Mr. Trump pointed a finger toward Mr. Gingrich, who was in the audience at the hotel ribbon-cutting.

“Congratulations, Newt, on last night — that was an amazing interview,” Mr. Trump said. “We don’t play games, Newt, right? We don’t play games.”

Newtz handled it just like he would. Not listen to a women, get offended if someone "lesser" asks a question, diverts, dismisses, and attacks her.

Seems to me that in the 90's, at least, ol' Newtie was pretty obsessed with sex.

Odd that both sides see it as awesome.

So, they see questions about sexual assault as a woman's obsession with sex sort of like when African Americans complain about racism, the RW accuses African Americans of throwing the Race card and being racist.
