BRIT HUME: I think this is partly about you that's pretty clear. Trump has never gotten over that first question you asked him, which I know, to me at least and to any other reasonable journalist is a completely fair and relevant question, but he never seems to have been able to get past that.

KELLY: What's interesting is here is Trump is not used to not controlling things as the chief executive of a large organization. But the truth is, he doesn't get to control the media, and while he's made his position clear about me after that first debate. Roger Ailes made his position clear too. And you know when Trump started it up again this past Saturday and resumed it again and again and again,  he was told repeatedly our debate team is settled and then came that Instagram video he put out today, followed by the company's statements.
