Something caused her to pick a losing horse and she is riding it into oblivion. I think she was effectively bribed into trying to sink Trump and her show, sandwiched in between O'Reilly and Hannity, is her reward.
I think she lost sight of who her real friends were and betrayed them. I can't remember now which Republican candidate might have been expected to benefit from what she did. That benefit is now worthless and she can count on little help from those who expected a different outcome.
“Something caused her to pick a losing horse”
Her multi-year contract is up a few months after the election, so negotiations are underway.
She might be auditioning for a major network job, or using that option as leverage.
She might be pandering to the Murdoch boys, who are more anti-Trump.
Or she might just be egotistically carried away with being in with the cool crowd of (liberal) elitists - invited to elite parties and such.
‘I can’t remember now which Republican candidate might have been expected to benefit from what she did.’
It wasn’t a GOP candidate. It was Hillary. Even before Hillary declared, Kelly said in an interview that Hillary was her “dream interview.” Kelly said she respected Hillary’s accomplishments, and the fact that she’d broken the glass ceiling. Kelly said she wanted to talk to Hillary about “gender,” and about how important it was to Hillary to see a woman in the Oval Office.
Iow, drool, slobber.
