Donald Trump on Tuesday continued to contemplate whether to skip Thursday's GOP presidential debate because he doesn't like Fox News host and debate moderator Megyn Kelly. The billionaire real estate mogul posted a video on Instagram and asked his followers whether he should participate in Fox News' debate in Des Moines, Iowa. "Megyn Kelly's really biased against me. She knows that, I know that, everybody knows that," he said. "Do you really think she can be fair at a debate?"

A day earlier, Trump threatened in an interview on CNN to skip the debate because of Kelly, who's set to moderate the upcoming debate. "Nothing's 100 percent, I'm not 100 percent," Trump said. "I'll see. If I think I'm going to be treated unfairly, I'd do something else. I don't think she can treat me fairly, I think she's very biased. But that doesn't mean I don't do the debate. I like doing debates."

Trump has previously threatened to skip debates, but has attended all of them so far. The billionaire candidate told the Boston Globe's James Pindell that he had spoken with Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes and said Kelly "should recuse herself" from the debate.

Kelly and Trump have been at odds since last summer, when Kelly asked him at the first GOP debate about his statements about women. Trump, thereafter, insulted Kelly and said, "She had blood coming out of her eyes, she had blood coming out of her wherever," among other things.

But of course we know Chump's audiences are usually planted.

6. Actually, if he doesn't show, he'll probably be talked about a lot on stage...

And he's figuring any publicity is good publicity.
