On Fox News’ “Outnumbered” Thursday, Taya Kyle, widow of "American Sniper" Chris Kyle, criticized Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump for his “offensive” remarks toward rival Carly Fiorina.

“I have young kids and this is behavior that even they know not to do,” said Kyle.

“Yes, he’s creative with marketing. And he’s creative in the way he can get ratings to go forward. That’s great, but that’s not leading,” she added.

“The fact that he would criticize people for their physical characteristics – or even if he says it’s her persona – the way he said it was so offensive.”

Andrea Tantaros applauded Fiorina for her response, but said that she doubts Trump's support will suffer. After all, this isn't the first time Trump has made questionable comments about women.

In an interview with Rolling Stone published Wednesday night, Trump mocked Fiorina’s appearance, saying, “Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that?”

In response, the former Hewlett-Packard CEO said that Trump’s comments “speak for themselves.”

She added, “But maybe, just maybe, I’m getting under his skin a little bit, because I am climbing in the polls.”
