Trump re-tweets 'bimbo' remark towards Megyn Kelly

As well all know, the 2016 Presidential election has been in full swing ever since the beginning of last year.  You don't have to follow politics to know that Donald Trump could potentially be our next President of the United States of America.  So, how are these candidates marketing themselves and getting the point across with their views? Easy answer; the wonderful world of social media.  Donald Trump has certainly been very active on his social media, specifically his Twitter account.  Back in August after a republican debate, Donald Trump makes a derogatory tweet towards Megyn Kelly saying "this is the bimbo that's asking presidential questions?".  Many people, including many TV host, wonder if this is actually hurting Donald Trump or making him more favorable for a vote.  You hear both sides of the story depending on who you ask and about what comment.  Many applaud him for not being politically correct all the time and very out spoken.

Fuel was thrown on the fire again when Donald Trump decided to re-tweet his 'bimbo' remark in recent news.  Megyn Kelly responded in a very shocked way that she can't even believe he would re-tweet that.  Donald Trump is considering not attending the last Republican debate, which airs January 28th, and whether or not this re-tweet has anything to do with it, the media is using that as an excuse to why he wont be attending. Donald Trump will continue to act how he does, say what he wants, tweet what he wants, and post to Facebook all the same whether or not it hurts his image.  Because he has said it once and he will say it again, he doesn't care what people think of him.    I think we will know after last debate on whether this re-tweet has hurt Donald Trump.  Moreover, I believe that him not attending the debate and whether or not he wins Iowa will determined if all his non- politically correct social media comments played a role in his campaign or not.
