Megyn Kelly claims Trump tried to 'woo' her before he announced he was running for president
Daily Mail UK ^ | January 4, 2016 | Ashley Collman

During his campaign, Donald Trump has ridiculed a lot of people but no one more than Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, who called him out on his track record of sexist comments in the first Republican debate.

Now Kelly is speaking out to say that the real estate mogul tried to win her over with some creepy correspondence before announcing his candidacy.

In a cover interview with Vanity Fair magazine, the 45-year-old journalist says The Donald used to send her press clippings about her from time to time, signed with his name, and call to talk about segments he liked on her show.

Kelly says she didn't know why Trump had taken an interest in her until he announced he was running for president last year, and then 'it became more clear'.

However, she says that Trump's attempts to get on her good side were pointless.

'I can't be wooed,' she said. 'I was never going to love him, and I was never going to hate him.'

The married mother-of-three spoke in detail about her infamous exchange with Trump during the first Republican debates, in which she confronted the candidate about his history of making demeaning comments about women.

In the interview, Kelly revealed that she actually came close to having to sit out the debates, since she became violently ill the morning of the live television event.

But knowing that her tough questions likely wouldn't get asked if she had to call in sick, Kelly says she powered through the debate despite her illness - hiding a blanket and a bucket to throw up in under the moderators' desk.

I never could stand to be around any woman who wanted to be the alpha male. I prefer my women to act...feminine.

The real disaster is watching all the wonderful friends of my 2 kids who graduated form a top rated university recently can not find good jobs.

There is nothing worse than watching an engineering graduate on Deans list (means 3.5+ gpa /4.00) can not find an engineering job for 6 months, and was working as a waiter. I will vote for any candidate who will get middle class jobs back, from China and Japan and Mexico. I could’nt give a rat’s rear end if she or he contributed to democrats before. For crying out loud our hero, Ronald Reagan was a registered democrat at one time.

For the brainless idiots, I have a message. We can’t exist as a viable country with $Trillion plus trade deficits every year. Our leaders are either stupid or in the pockets of their rich donors to allow this rape of our country by China, Japan, India, Mexico and others.

This country desperately needs a businessman who has done millions of dollars worth of deals with foreign countries PERSONALLY. The career politicians are incapable and useless.

I traced down the rumor. It has been debunked and traced to a former FOX employee.

VANITY FAIR is a faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar lefty magazine, that publishes silly FLUFF pieces on weirdo people, such as Bruce Jenner. Graydon Carter is the elitists jerk of an editor, who has has a many decades "war" ON Trump. I don't know the origin of this contretemps ( perhaps I used to ), but I do know that it exists.

Since you are completely unaware of the facts of this all, it would behoove you to find them out. That way, you wouldn't look so foolish.

If true she would have used this right after the first debate. It smacks of desperation.

I have to agree with you. Most of the low paying jobs and the professional jobs created since Obama have gone to immigrants. Enough is enough!

Instead, she made thousands of Fox News viewers vomit and decide never to watch Fox again.

Trump figured out that she had things flowing from her orifices that night. He was nice enough to say blood and not diarrhea and vomit.

George Will has a penis? I don’t know why but I assumed that when the stick was inserted into his rectum it sort of took all his equipment all up in there with it.

Great post. You said it. Who cares how candidates talk on issues? We need to get this country back first.

Trump tries to “woo” everyone in the media. He likes people who treat him fair. Bloody Megyn’s problem is she treated him like a lowlife moron by starting off a presidential debate asking him about his “shameful” treatment of women. He treats women no worse or no better than he treats men. Trump is Trump. And Megyn Kelly needs to leave Fox for MSNBC where her leftist feminism would be appreciated.

This admission?revelation should immediately disqualify her from moderating any debate in which Trump participates.

You probably have to be mid 50s and up to remember these stereotypes of the new touchy feely man

It’s so common now amongst white men of X and millennials I guess it’s not noteworthy

My wife was teary the other day over an older buddy of mine who passed away

And asked rhetorically what will happen to us since so real men have died out

I reminded her there are still a few

You see them in the military and elsewhere but yes the worm has turned

Men today are mostly subservient to women or browbeaten by culture

Or simply worthless

It’s bizarre to me

And bodes poorly

I’m a sexist of course and enlightened folks like sakic love to point that out

I’m racist too as sakic points that out too when it suits her

But those tags have no effect on me anymore

Men and women are very different with positives and negatives in general

Men are ordained by nature to care for and protect women and have died by the millions trying and are better suited in general to govern or lead

Folks can argue with history all they wish

I don’t form opinions based on exceptions but I will acknowledge them
