Megyn Kelly Reveals What’s Really Wrong With Kamala Harris – ‘She Thinks She’s Rush Limbaugh’

By /

The former Fox News host Megyn Kelly spoke out this week to reveal what’s really wrong with Vice President Kamala Harris, saying that she talks to people “like they’re on the short bus.”

Kelly Eviscerates Harris

During Thursday’s episode of her eponymous SiriusXM talk show, Kelly played a clip from Harris’ appearance on “The View” earlier this week in which she said that she is “scared as heck” of Donald Trump being reelected.

“She thinks she’s Rush Limbaugh. She’s not. It’s so obvious,” Kelly said in response. “She tries to explain things to people all the time, as though she’s talking to a 2 year old. And look, I talk to my audience about complex things all the time, and I never assume anybody understands a complex thing. I always give a couple lines of explanation because people are living their lives and they’re not following politics day and night like I am. But I don’t treat them like they’re idiots.”

“I have a respect for my audience’s intelligence that they deserve because I talk to my audience,” Kelly continued. “They call in all the time on SiriusXM, they write in at MegynKelly.com. She talks to the people listening to her like she thinks they’re on the short bus. Forgive me, but she does.”

Not stopping there, Kelly went on to say that she feels “insulted” by the way that Harris speaks.

“All I feel is insulted. My intelligence is insulted. I’m bored by you. I’m offended by you,” Kelly said. “The thing is, it almost makes me think of Oprah. So Oprah actually was full of profundities when she did that show. But back in the day when I was young and in law school and you turn on ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show,’ you would hear something. She was the one we got the ‘aha moment’ from.”

“She would have this little catchphrase where you’re like, ‘Oh, yeah, that’s something to think about,’ and her team would set it to music and they’d slow down the interaction, and you’d be moved,” Kelly added. “You’d think, ‘Oh, I feel inspired.’ She thinks she’s Oprah. She thinks we’re going to add a little twinkly music. I’m going to say it like this, and even though it’s total inanity, it’s going to move people.”

Kelly’s Previous Comments About Harris

This isn’t the first time that Kelly has blasted Harris publicly. In July of last year, she ripped Harris as a “moron” after saying that she gave her “the benefit of the doubt” at first.

“I did not think she was an idiot. I now think she’s a moron. She’s not that smart. Forgive me, I’m still one of those people who gets wooed by titles like, ‘She was the attorney general in state of California.’ You know, how dumb could she be? Like, dumb. The answer is very, very dumb,” Kelly said, according to OK! Magazine. “And I come to that conclusion just with my own eyes and ears from watching and listening to her. She cannot put two sentences together.”

“She’s just not a smart person, and it concerns me because that’s all we have in line at the Democratic side. And as [Donald] Trump’s numbers continue to go up and up and up – and I realize some of the polls are showing him beating Joe Biden now in a hypothetical matchup – he’s still very vulnerable,” she added. “He did not win in 2020 and it looks like it’s gonna be the same matchup, and honestly, Joe Biden’s knocking on the Grim Reaper’s door, and she could be the President of the United States in the next six years by default, if things go in a dark and upsetting way. I’m concerned.”

Harris Is More Unpopular Than Ever

Millions of Americans will agree with Kelly’s assessment of Harris, whose approval rating fell from 41.7 percent to 36.3 percent last year while her disapproval increased from 51.7 percent to 53.7 percent, according to analysis by polling website 538. Thomas Gift, who heads up the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, told Newsweek last month that Harris’ unpopularity “could end up being a difference-maker” in the 2024 presidential election.

“To realize just how unpopular Kamala Harris is, you have to keep in mind the historical significance of it all,” Gift said. “No one in her position has had this low of favorabilities in a first term since Dan Quayle. That’s saying something. So it’s no surprise, especially with Biden’s age, that Republicans keep hammering home a simple point: a vote for Biden is a vote for Harris.

“While it’s usually the top of the ticket that drives voting, and that will be true again in 2024, Harris’ abysmal popularity will matter on the margins,” he added. “And with next year’s election poised to be close, those margins could end up being a difference-maker.”
