Megyn Kelly, the conservative political commentator, contendedon her podcast Wednesdaythat President Donald Trump is “not a moral man” and acts pettily when he is criticized, in her latest critique of the man she once rallied for.
In her latest negative remarks about the president, Kelly claimedTrump was unable to absorb criticisms from his former allieswho havebroken with him on the Iran war.
“He’s not a moral man, he’s not the greatest husband in the world and he’s extremely petty and thin-skinned,” Kelly told her guestRussell Brand.
“He’s turning on his most loyal supporters because they don’t support this war and getting in bed with people who f****** hate him and have hated him from the beginning,” Kelly added.
Kelly is among the notable former Trump supporters who have faced the president’s ire in recent weeksfor publicly opposing his military strikes on Iranthat sparked an ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
Last week, the presidentcalled Kelly a “Low IQ person”and insisted her platform was“dying fast.”That was after she expressed frustrations over the president’s aggressive rhetoric about bombing Iran and asserted he had been “bamboozled” into going to war by other foreign leaders.
FormerFox Newshost Tucker Carlson, conservative podcast host Candace Owens and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones are other former Trump supporters, with large online followings, who have also been subjected to Trump’s insults for breaking with him on the war.
While Kelly has a decade-long history of skirmishing with the president, she put aside past grievances to support him in the 2024 presidential election. She’s offered him high praise forhis immigration agendaandattempts to upend transgender rights.
Despite her current frustrations with the president, she maintains he was the right choice in the election.
“There’s still, in my view, a lot to like about Trump,” Kelly said.
