Just days after swearing to not appear on Fox News again after what he called "unfair" treatment during last week's GOP presidential debate, Donald Trump called in to Fox & Friends this morning.
In a phone interview with host Steve Doocy, Trump would not rule out an independent run should he not secure the Republican nomination.
From the AP:
In a phone interview with “Fox & Friends” host Steve Doocy, Trump made only passing reference to his brouhaha with the network, saying that they’d “always been friends.”
He also refused once again to rule out a third-party run.
“We’re going to keep the door open, we’re going to see what happens,” he said. “I want to run as a Republican, but I do want to keep that door open in case I don’t get treated fairly.”
Much of the love loss between Trump and Fox News stemmed from what Trump called "unfair" questions from Megyn Kelly during the debate last Thursday. That was followed by a comment from Trump on Sunday saying Kelly went after him with such vigor she had blood coming out of her "wherever" - which many interpreted as a reference to Kelly's menstrual cycle.
Trump has demanded an apology from Kelly, but she stated last night on her show that no apology would be forthcoming from her:
“Trump, who is the front-runner, will not apologize. And I certainly will not apologize for doing good journalism. So I’ll continue doing my job without fear or favor. And Mr. Trump, I expect, will continue with what has been a successful campaign thus far.”
