In a notable appearance in Pittsburgh on Monday, conservative podcaster Megyn Kelly, formerly of Fox News, voiced strong support for Donald Trump, marking a turn from their infamous 2016 dispute. Kelly's address defended Trump against various criticisms, including his contentious pledge to be the "protector" of women and his opposition to transgender athletes in sports. "He will be a protector of women and it's why I'm voting for him," Kelly declared, aligning herself with Trump's stance on these issues.
The event, touted as Trump's "closing message," saw Kelly take the stage, where Trump watched approvingly. Previously, their relationship was frosty, with Trump having once labeled Kelly as "nasty." He dismissed her journalism credentials after a heated exchange during a debate in the 2016 Republican primary, infamously saying, "There was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever." Kelly's transition from adversary to supporter seems to reflect her remarks from last year that all past animosities with Trump were "under the bridge."
Kelly's appearance comes at a time when early voting shows a gender gap favoring Kamala Harris. Despite her criticisms about vulgar rhetoric at Trump's Madison Square Garden rally, Kelly's support appears unshaken. Following the Pittsburgh event, she shared a photo with Trump on X, urging, "God bless him. Go vote for him!" (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot. Source: the AP)
