Megyn Kelly expects Trump to return for Fox debate despite ‘bizarre’ encounter

There may be another chapter in the Donald Trump-Megyn Kelly saga: Fox News plans to host another Republican primary debate on March 3 with Chris Wallace, Bret Baier and Kelly moderating. In an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos this morning, Kelly said that the real estate mogul has not committed to participating in the debate, though she said she hopes he does.

Trump is expected to return to the debate stage Saturday night, when ABC News will host a forum among the Republican candidates prior to the New Hampshire primary on Tuesday. Trump decided not to participate in the most recent Fox News debate, in which Kelly was one of the moderators, before the Iowa caucuses. Arguing that he wouldn’t be treated fairly at the debate, Trump instead held a “special event to benefit veterans organizations” at the same time.

It was bizarre because I became the story. He was so very focused on me that I became the story and, you know, you never want to be the story when you’re a news person.
