Megyn Kelly really doesn’t want to talk about her issues with Donald Trump. For the past few weeks, Kelly has kept to the high road while Trump… most certainly has not.
But according to Politico, Kelly got a bunch of questions at a Cosmopolitan event with editor Joanna Coles today about The Donald and how he’s been lashing out at her every week since she dared to ask him tough questions at a debate.
Coles asked Kelly about it a bunch of times, after which the Fox News anchor said, “I don’t want to talk about Donald Trump any more, truly. He has captured the attention of the electorate, and huge sections of the Republican base. I think he’s a fighter, and that appeals to a lot of people. That appeals to a lot of people, and when he is upset at someone, he fights even harder.”
She maintained that the questions were perfectly fair and Trump had perhaps the unrealistic expectations that presidential debate moderators were going to be “nice” to him.
And Kelly had a few other things to say too:
It's: Head down, shoulders back, forge forward … words to live by in a crisis. https://t.co/S4oKvXtYBA
