Megyn Kelly who? Donald Trump reignited his rivalry with Anderson Cooper after revealing that he does not think the CNN host should moderate any of the upcoming presidential debates.
"I don't think Anderson Cooper should be a moderator at the October 9 debate, because Anderson Cooper works for CNN and over the last couple of days, I've seen how Anderson Cooper behaves," Trump said, according to The Washington Post.
Trump went on to say he would still partake in the debates, but voiced his unease with Cooper's position.
"He'll be very biased, very biased. I don't think he should be a moderator," Trump said. "I'll participate, but I don't think he should be a moderator. CNN is the Clinton News Network and Anderson Cooper, I don't think he can be fair."
Trump and Cooper have often sparred throughout the 2016 presidential campaign, most famously during a CNN town hall in March. At the time, Trump had retweeted an unappealing photo of rival Ted Cruz's wife, Heidi. Cooper brought it up and Trump defended his choice.
"I thought it was a nice picture of Heidi," Trump said.
Cooper shot back at Trump saying, "Come on, you're running for president of the United States."
"Look, I didn't start it," Trump said.
"Sir, with all due respect, that's the argument of a five-year-old," Cooper told Trump.
