WASHINGTON, D.C. (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – What is Donald Trump afraid of?

The Republican presidential candidate has declined an offer by NOW, the National Organization for Women, for a televised one-on-one debate with FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly to discuss women’s issues in America.

At last week’s FOX News Republican presidential debate,  Trump was asked by Kelly, who was one of the three moderators, about his past disparaging comments about women.   In response, Trump said he had no time for political correctness.

In post-debate tweets, the real estate mogul accused Kelly of being unfair and unprofessional about her questioning and said that the Fox News host had “blood coming out of her wherever.”

“You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes,” Trump told CNN’s Don Lemon on Friday night. “Blood coming out of her wherever.”

NOW is the largest organization of feminist activists in the United States, with hundreds of thousands of contributing members and more than 500 local and campus affiliates in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Responding to reporters’ questions about why he is declining the NOW invitation, Trump said, “Are you kidding me?  It was bad enough with one woman having her monthly period during the FOX News debate.  I’m not going to risk being in an auditorium full of women having their periods. I’m a businessman and I can easily recognize what would be a losing proposition.”

Trump’s “blood comment” has outraged a lot of women in America and the candidate’s biggest challenge right now is how to win back what he may have lost in terms of women’s votes.
