Kelly Says She's Done Talking About Trump Feud

Megyn Kelly

Fox News anchor and show host Megyn Kelly, who has been lambasted by presidential frontrunner Donald Trump since the first Republican national debate, said she was done talking about her feud with the candidate during a one-on-one discussion with Cosmopolitan editor Joanna Coles Monday morning during an Advertising Week panel, according to Politico.

“I don’t want to talk about Donald Trump any more, truly,” she said after several questions from Coles about Trump’s continued criticism. “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.”

Kelly, whose inquiry about Trump’s disparaging comments about women during the first GOP debate led to high drama between the candidate and Fox News, maintained her questions were balanced and necessary to ask to a potential presidential candidate.

She rejected the notion that the feud with Trump was planned in any way.

“I thought it was a fair question,” she said. “He didn’t think it was fair. And that is his choice.”

She added: “I understand his position. He’s not a politician. He said afterwards that he was expecting us to be nice to him, and we weren’t nice…That wasn’t exactly the bargain. It’s not a cocktail party, a presidential debate.”
