Megyn Kelly has been vocal of her dislike against Donald Trump. She had the opportunity to say things to his face on her SiriusXM show. Megyn left no attempt to take a jibe at Trump and even called him some bad things.
The SiriusXM show had a moment where Megyn Kelly told Donald Trump that he made Dr. Anthony Fauci a Star. Megyn Kelly didn’t feel that the mask mandate was required, and that people weren’t ok with the vaccine requirement. Megyn thought that the clause where people couldn’t sue the government for their actions was really wrong and it shouldn’t have happened. Trump also denied about any Presidential Commodation from his end.
I overrode many of the things he did. He was much less important to me. Now, with that all being said, he’s been there for years. He was respected. He lost a lot of the respect because of Covid. But he was respected. And on Covid, if you know what I did, I let the governors run their states and many of the governors opened up their states. Some of them didn’t.
Donald Trump tried to defend himself with his clarification on the situation, but it looked like Kelly had the upper hand in this discussion and did a great job of grilling the former President. Trump told Kelly that he didn’t fire Fauci as he had experience of the topic and firing him wasn’t the solution.
TRUMP: Okay, look, I’m not one that blames a system that if you’re civil service or if you have some other protection, that you can’t get fired because I’ve done things that are a lot worse than that.
KELLY: You’re big on the firing.
TRUMP: So, so yeah, I fired a lot of people. I fired Comey and that was one of the great firings. I fired Comey and then I fired a lot of other people in the FBI, and they were great firings because the deep state, and they were at work and they were not good people. But I wasn’t, I was not a big fan of Fauci. If you look at Ron DeSanctimonious, he was, this guy said the greatest things. I can give you articles. That Fauci is great. He’s wonderful. We love him. We don’t do anything without Fauci. This went on for months.
KELLY: But he didn’t listen to Fauci.
TRUMP: He did a hundred percent. Look –
KELLY: He shut down Florida for a month.
TRUMP: I will give you, he shut down Florida –
KELLY: For a month.
TRUMP: Oh, he shut it down for a lot of longer.
Donald Trump, on the other hand, made it clear that he let the governers run the state as per their wish, and they made all the amendments accordingly. Trump clearly mentioned that he awaits credit for all the good he did in handling the COVID situation.
Do you think this was a great take by Megyn Kelly of Donald Trump? Sound off in the comments.
