Getty Citing unfair treatment, Donald Trump said Wednesday that he is not going to appear on any Fox News shows "for the forseeable future." ".@FoxNews has been treating me very unfairly & I have therefore decided that I won't be doing any more Fox shows for the foreseeable future," Trump tweeted. The Republican presidential candidate has devoted Monday and Tuesday nights this week to blasting the network's coverage of him on Twitter, tweeting and retweeting criticism. "I am having a really hard time watching Fox News," he wrote Monday night. I think @megynkelly should take another eleven day "unscheduled" vacation. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 23, 2015 Trump also called out Bill O'Reilly on Twitter this week for having "the same old Trump haters" as guests and "refusing to ... post the great polls that came out today including NBC." .@oreillyfactor, why don't you have some knowledgeable talking heads on your show for a change instead of the same old Trump haters. Boring! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 22, 2015 O'Reilly fired back on Tuesday, telling NBC's Matt Lauer that Twitter is "like the worst thing you could give Donald Trump." “He wants people to like him. When people criticize him, he takes it personally," the host of "The O'Reilly Factor" said. "So I just think this is just a extension of his reality show, ‘The Apprentice.’ This is just theater right now." Trump has criticized Fox's coverage in the past, particularly in the case of Megyn Kelly, who asked him tough questions during the first GOP debate. He and Fox News chief Roger Ailes have struck two truces in the last two months, the last one coming in late August after Trump unleashed a series of tweets blasting "The Kelly File" anchor. “Roger Ailes is great. He’s a special guy and a good friend of mine. We just spoke two minutes ago," Trump told Laura Ingraham in an Aug. 25 interview. "I mean, Roger Ailes is a great guy and no, I have no problem,." The first truce came days after the Aug. 6 debate at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, where Trump had a contentious back-and-forth with Kelly and said in a later interview that she had "blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever." (He later explained that he was referring to her nose.) “Roger Ailes just called. He is a great guy & assures me that ‘Trump’ will be treated fairly on @FoxNews,” he wrote on Twitter at that time. “His word is always good!” Poster Comment: For the foreseeable future, O'Reilly will just have Carly and Rubio on.

She didn't ask a tough question. Her question dredged up the old Republicans- hate-women theme. And that issue died years ago.
Not with Trump they didn't. The man talks about "ugly women" all the time,while bragging about buying trophy wives. Superficial ain't a strong enough word for him.
“You know, it doesn’t really matter what [the media] write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.” Classy guy. There are tangible reasons why he is so desperately insecure about his personal history, character, education, business failures.
1991. I get a kick out of your desperation.
Trump himself digs back over a decade to attack various people. Like your man-crush Trump, you love to dish it out but you certainly can't take it.
We're talking about a quote made 24 years ago that had nothing to do with politics. You are one desperate dude.
Hey, I'm not the one supporting a phony liberal New Yorker media whore who is as much a flim-flam artist as a businessman hawking casinos, golf courses, country clubs, posh buildings, etc. Not to mention his criminal enterprises like housing projects that never get built (and the buyers' money is gone) or running an obvious scam like Trump University.
Gosh. And here I've been told all my life that anyone can be President. Guess not, according to you. Nope. They've got to be professional politicians. Establishment types. Those who know the game and how it's played. A system that gave us Presidential "winners" like Dole, McCain and Romney. Leaders like Boehner and McConnell. Without Trump, JEB! would be in the lead. HE'S preferable?? Even if he wins we lose.
There is nothing to back that up. In its most recent poll, Fox News asked how people would vote without Trump (1st) (Q. 29). The largest share, 6% moved to Carson (2nd). Bush (6th) picked up 3%. Rubio (4th) picked up 3% as well and would still lead Bush. Fiorina (3rd) picked up 2% and Cruz (6th) picked up 3%. Without Trump, the result was Carson 24%, Rubio 12%, Fiorina 11%, Cruz 11%, Bush 10%. Bush did not move ahead of anyone in front of him. Rubio moved to second.

To clarify, I meant if Trump never entered the race. May 28, 2015: Leading the pack with 10 percent each are former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Ben Carson, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, the independent Quinnipiac University Poll finds. March 5, 2015: Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, with 18 percent, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush with 16 percent, top the list of possible 2016 presidential nominees among Republican or Republican leaning voters nationwide, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. March 9, 2015 McClatchy-Marist Poll: In the race for the 2016 Republican nomination, 19% of Republicans and Republican leaning independents including those who are undecided yet leaning toward a candidate support former Florida Governor Jeb Bush. A similar 18% favor Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker while former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee receives 10%. Nine percent back retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson whereas Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky has 7%.
It's a dynamic that has formed in the last month. Similarly, Trump supporters would go to Carson and to Fiorina if he dropped out (not to Cruz as was earlier expected).
