Howard Stern Asks Trump to Rate Megyn Kelly on Scale of 1-10

One day after Howard Stern boldly predicted that Donald Trump would be the 2016 GOP nominee for president, the frontrunner called into his SiriusXM show to thank the host for his kind words. But the first thing Stern wanted to know was where Trump thinks Megyn Kelly’s looks stand on a scale of 1-10.

“In the old days, I would not have minded answering that question,” Trump said with a laugh, slyly acknowledging his past comments about Heidi Klum. “But nowadays I’ll take a pass. He assured Stern that everything is “fine” between him and Fox News, calling Roger Ailes an “amazing guy.”

Stern reluctantly moved on by asking the candidate if he could get a Supreme Court nomination in the Trump administration. “I’ll tell you what, in terms of brain power, he’s right at the top,” Trump said of Stern. “He’s a smart cookie.”

Trump may have said all was “fine” between him and Fox News Tuesday morning, but by this afternoon, he was back to trading nasty statements with Ailes over the way he was treated by Kelly during the first GOP debate.
