Oh, God, here we go. No one is defending Trump, no one is even discussing Trump here other than in the classy way of a gentleman sending news clippings about a reporter whom he might admire. This is called being polite.
I’m in my sixties, and it is customary for people to send you a clipping of an article you may have wrote in a local newspaper or magazine or regarding an award you might have won that was posted. That’s class. Calling someone creepy for doing that is creepy as it denotes that she is putting Trump or whomever she is referring to, on a par with Cosby and Clinton and other perverts.
I have no respect for her and stopped watching her after debate one. I’m sure she lost a big audience.

Exactly. I bet you’ve had one or two and I did too. Win an academic award in high school, or make the big play, anything that got your photo in the paper, and you might get one. I never thought someone was hitting on me.
She’s a petty little person. Guess it sucks getting old. She knows some smart and hot 30 year old is right on her heels.

It’s too bad that someone can’t clue Ms Kelly in to the things that you’ve just said. What was class and an attempt to congratulate Kelly on work well done was, off course, interpreted by her and every one else on her level as “creepy”.
I once had a poem published and appreciated the people who clipped it out of our local newspaper, wrote an encouraging note on it and sent it to me. Kelly, as a journalist, should have appreciated Trump’s interest in her work instead of assigning the crass and misleading description of “wooing” to it. I’m sure Trump has done the same to many people whose work he admired.
But actions like Trump’s were a part of a bygone period when there were such things as etiquette....and journalists.
