Trump on WLS: Attacks Megyn Kelly, Vows to Save Richard Simmons

By John Dempsey, WLS-AM 890 News

(CHICAGO) Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump again attacked FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly, during an appearance on “The Jonathan Brandmeier Show”, on WLS.

Trump reacted to a new ad that features women reading verbatim, some of the disparaging things he has said about other women, directly to the camera.

“Bimbo,” reads one woman.  “Dog,” reads another.  “Fat pig,” reads a third woman, as the ad, “Real quotes from Donald Trump about women,” is introduced.

Our Principles PAC, which is led by top staffers to former Trump opponent Jeb Bush, is planning to spend $500,000 on the spot, which will began running Monday on cable channels including CNN.

One of the quotes in the ad repeats what Trump said last fall about Kelly, when he implied she was menstruating when she asked him tough questions during the first FOX News Presidential debate.

Back then Trump said Kelly, had blood “coming out of her wherever.”

On the Brandmeier show on WLS, Trump said of the ad, “I just got to see the woman ad briefly, and I haven’t seen it all.  But much of it was just false, because you know like Megyn Kelly, who’s a real, that’s a real winner.  Megyn Kelly, and you know they said ‘coming out of wherever’, I was talking about her ears, you could talk about her eyes, her nose, or whatever I mean you know, but they, they don’t take that.   They say ‘oh it can only be one place.’   It wasn’t even my thought.”

Trump even vowed to “save Richard Simmons” after recent allegations that he is being held hostage in his own home. The full story can be found at The Hollywood Reporter online.

On the program, Trump also continued to say he canceled his Chicago rally last Friday after consulting with Chicago Police.

“I think it was a good decision.   I mean it’s a decision that was widely credited. I think it was very important.  And the law enforcement was terrific, and we all made it together more or less.”

However interim Chicago Police Superintendent John Escalante told reporters that night, that Trump decided to cancel the rally on his own, saying “We were informed that the event was being canceled.  The Chicago Police Department had no role.  We were not consulted or provided an opinion as to whether or not the event should be canceled.”​

Shortly before 630 pm, the Chicago Police Department was notified by officials that the Trump campaign had cancelled…

Polls indicate that Trump is the favorite to win the Illinois Republican Presidential Primary being held today.
