Excellent move, Erick

Finally, a major conservative player takes action against the Manhattan Cluster Bomb:

Donald J. Trump’s suggestion that a Fox News journalist who questioned him during the Republican debate was aggressive because she was menstruating led a conservative group on Friday night to disinvite the real estate mogul from a prominent conservative forum.
Erick Erickson, the organizer of the RedState Gathering here, said that Mr. Trump’s comment about the journalist, Megyn Kelly, was “a bridge too far.’’
Mr. Trump had criticized Ms. Kelly earlier Friday on CNN because of her sharp questioning of Mr. Trump during the debate over insults he had directed at women.
“She gets out and she starts asking me all sorts of ridiculous questions,” Mr. Trump said in the CNN interview. “You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever.’’
In an entry posted on the RedState blog at 11:56 p.m., Mr. Erickson wrote that he admired Mr. Trump for his bluntness and for connecting with “so much of the anger in the Republican base.’’
“But there are even lines blunt talkers and unprofessional politicians should not cross,’’ he wrote. “Decency is one of those lines.’’
“I just don’t want someone on stage who gets a hostile question from a lady and his first inclination is to imply it was hormonal,’’ he said.
Here's hoping this is the tipping point for this rudderless charlatan.

  1. It will be dismissed as Wall Street locker room talk by the mean-spirited people that he turns on.

  2. That's how Ann Coulter - who appears to have lost her marbles - will probably spin it.
