\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I saw this alluded to as a rumor about an hour ago. Now it\u2019s been officially confirmed by CNN. Megyn Kelly snuck into Trump Tower today. Well, it\u2019s the wrong way to put it. That makes it sound like she was stalking. What happened was Trump and Megyn Kelly had a secret meeting at Trump Tower this morning, according to people with knowledge of the matter. Apparently, Megyn Kelly reached out to Trump\u2019s office to set up the meeting, and they ended up having lunch. Beyond that, little is known. <\/p>\n

Representatives for Trump and Fox had no immediate comment. But the meeting raises the possibility of a Kelly-Trump interview sometime in the future. This is a story here from CNN. This is what I saw earlier: “An NBC reporter spotted Kelly looking incognito and entering Trump Tower shortly before noon.” And then there\u2019s this next paragraph. “Trump\u2019s intense dislike of Kelly has been one of the subplots of his run for president. Trump has essentially said that she started all of this by treating him unfairly during the first GOP debate of the season last August.” <\/p>\n

You want to know what happened here? I mean, not at this thing today. You want to know what this is all about? I\u2019m gonna tell you, I don\u2019t know, but I do know. It is one of these things I can pretty much guess what went down here. Megyn Kelly starts on Fox, she starts out as a reporter, and from the moment she started there was something about her that attracted attention. She\u2019s just one of these people on TV that you notice. She moved up the ladder of success at Fox. She ended up getting anchor gigs, first at nine o\u2019clock in the morning, to one o\u2019clock in the afternoon. All this took years. And then eventually she gets her nine p.m. prime time show. <\/line><\/p>\n

And at some point during this career advancement, Trump becomes a fan. Donald Trump is known to reach out to people in the media. He sends them notes. He sends them encouragement. He just reaches out to them. There are some people that are fascinated by media figures. My wild guess is that Mr. Trump thought he\u2019d always been nice to her — I\u2019m guessing that he didn\u2019t send her critical notes. I\u2019m guessing he didn\u2019t send her short little notes or texts or whatever it was criticizing her. I bet it was stuff rooted in admiration for her talent or what have you, and I think he was blindsided by her opening question in that first debate, personally blindsided by it. <\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know that they had any kind of a friendship or relationship at all, but my guess is that if he has some kind of contact with her, sends her notes now and then — I don\u2019t know if she replies or not. I don\u2019t know any of this. I\u2019m just guessing. I could be all wet on this. But my guess is that he figured that obviously she knows who he is, that in all of his notes or whatever reaching out to her, maybe knew her, met her a time or two when he was over at Fox. And I\u2019m sure he thought that she didn\u2019t have any problem with him and vice-versa.<\/p>\n

Then here comes that first debate and that first question. And I think it blindsided him. And then he probably said, “You know what? She\u2019s using this to establish her independence. She\u2019s using this to show that she\u2019s not cowed by anybody,” and that\u2019s how it all began. That would be my wild guess, and I\u2019ll tell you why I think this. I don\u2019t just grab this stuff out of thin air. Her first show on her nine p.m. slot, very first show, it might have been her second. Okay, let\u2019s say first week. But I think it was one of the first two shows. <\/p>\n

She had Cruz at her top of the hour guest, at a time when Cruz was doing something in the Senate, filibustering or something, and everybody angry and hating on Cruz. So she gets him as a guest and her first question to him is (paraphrasing), “What is it like to be the most hated man in America?” And his response was, “Megyn, before I begin, I just want to congratulate you. This is a terrific achievement. We\u2019re so –” and she cut him off halfway through it \u2019cause I think she was establishing that she was in no way affected by personal relationships with the people she\u2019s covering. That she\u2019s not gonna be biased. She\u2019s not gonna be friendly with some and unfriendly to others based on whether they know her, whether they\u2019re nice to her. <\/line><\/p>\n

I think she out of the gate established that she is totally, completely independent. (interruption) What? Oh, no. See, there\u2019s some women on the other side of the glass saying, “She\u2019s just a …” and they\u2019re using the B-word. And if I\u2019m describing a man doing this you would not at all say the guy was a B-A. You wouldn\u2019t. You\u2019d say this guy\u2019s doing it right. No, you wouldn\u2019t. No, you wouldn\u2019t say he was a penis. <\/p>\n

Anyway, look, I probably shouldn\u2019t even delve in it \u2019cause I don\u2019t even know. I\u2019m just wild guessing on all this, how it has happened. Anyway, whatever\u2019s going on today, looks like it might be a hatchet-burrying attempt. But who knows. It may fall apart and not work. You know, Trump could have a press conference this afternoon and say, “She came and she begged and she begged me to love her again. And I said you\u2019re just like Lyin\u2019 Ted.” We don\u2019t know what he\u2019s gonna do. (laughing) Anyway, folks, I have to take a brief time-out. Do not hold me to any of that. I\u2019m wild guessing, you know, intelligence guided by experience with the possibility I could be totally all wet.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you what else it could be. It wasn\u2019t that long ago that we learned that Megyn Kelly was going to host a brand-new celebrity\/newfangled Barbara Walters-type interview program on the Fox broadcast network, not Fox News. Remember that? That\u2019s about a month or two old. And it was gonna be this big, big whoop-de-doo, and to expand her career portfolio and all that, take it beyond Fox News to the Fox broadcast network. Barbara Walters used to interview “trees” and stuff before the Academy Awards, she had the Fascinating People, that kind of thing. Could be that she\u2019s over trying to get Trump for that. Make up to break up kind of stuff. Who knows, folks? Just my wild guess. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
