Former Fox News host Megyn Kelly destroyed Democrat women in the Senate for the way they attacked President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth.
Kelly, who hosts he own Sirius XM show, said that she attended the hearings and believes it was the Democrat women’s antics, and other reasons, that will assist Hegseth in being confirmed.
“No one laid a glove on him. He’s good. He’s got this. I have zero doubts now that he will be confirmed. Joni Ernst was the big question mark, and she was great today. She was very nice in her questioning of him, very respectful. That’s not a no vote, no way,” Kelly began.
“And this is just the Senate Armed Services Committee he has got to he’ll get out of committee. And but like she was the big pivotal vote, even if Trump is going to lose, potentially McConnell, potentially Murkowski and Collins, which now they’re saying he might not,” she continued.
“I don’t think Pete Hegseth has trouble. I think he’s going to get confirmed, and I don’t think anybody touched him. And really, to me, the story of the day was how some of these Democrat senators embarrassed themselves trying to…,” the host said.
“Why do the women always have to be so sh*tty? Why do the women have to be like these hysterical fools? Why can’t they be more dignified? Tim Kaine was the worst, I should say that up front. The worst, the most disgusting, I should say. But he wasn’t like an hysteric. Mazie Hirono is so dumb. I can’t believe she’s a US senator. Kirsten Gillibrand,” Kelly went on.
“Oh my God, you are undermining the very cause that I know you so desperately want to promote right now. So I was embarrassed for them. I was embarrassed for my sex and how they were behaving today. Then there was Slotkin, who’s the newest Democrat over on the left side… She was so annoying… There’s a way of doing cross-examination where you don’t wind up the least likable between the person you’re crossing and yourself,” said the host.
“And obviously these people, most of them, haven’t done it. You can tell the difference… You see, these people try to do it. You’re like, are you trying to make me hate you? Like, I’m not inclined to hate you just because you’re a Dem or against Pete, you’re just behaving like a pr*ck,” Kelly said.
“I went there today. I’ve never gone to a Senate confirmation hearing as a regular person as opposed to as a member of the press. I did it because Hegseths invited me, and I said, you know what, this would be a great experience for me for a couple of reasons. Number one, I do support Pete Hegseth, and am very happy to telegraph to the world that I do and that I hope he gets through. And if my sitting there in any way telegraphs to people who needed to be telegraphed that it would be a good thing to support him and that I think the allegations against him are bullsh*t. Great. I’ll do it. Fine,” she said.
“But number two, I did think it would be a fascinating experience for me too, having been on the other side so many times, not as a senator, but as a member of the media, just covering these things to see what it’s like to be in the middle of it all. And my takeaway is it’s very, very boring. You had to sit there from 9:30 straight. We got out at 2pm, no breaks, while some kept it kind of exciting. For the most part, it was like, especially these Democrat senators who just want to hear themselves talk. The Republicans actually asked him questions that would help us get to know him a bit. The Dems, for the most part, just grandstanded. And that was annoying,” she added.
