Trump Tweets Fox Would Drop Megyn Kelly Over Him
Donald Trump retweeted several attacks on Megyn Kelly as a moderator of the Fox News/Google debate a few days before the event on Twitter.
“@Belizediver88: @CNNSitRoom @CNN @megynkelly It will never happen. Fox will drop Kelly if it means no Trump. Nobody will watch w/o Trump.”

Reality
Trump has had an issue with Kelly since she moderated a Republican presidential debate in August. He accused her of being unfairly harsh on him by asking him valid questions about past sexist and misogynist comments.
Contrary to Trump’s statements, Fox News is standing by its anchor, calling the attacks on her “sexist verbal assaults.”
