Megyn Kelly urges Americans to be patient with Trump as tariff war heats up: ‘He’s earned the right’

Megyn Kelly is urging Americans to have patience with President Trump as backlash over his far-reaching “reciprocal” tariffs continues to grow.

“He’s asking everybody to be a little patient. I think given the guy’s success in the first term, economically, we should give it to him,” Kelly told the Daily Mail.

“He’s earned the right to our patience, and I’m prepared to provide it,” the host of SiriusXM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show” declared.

Trump’s sweeping tariffs on nearly all imports went into effect over the weekend, and even steeper levies began Wednesday, hitting US allies and adversaries alike, with China being hit with 104% levy and the European Union 20%.

He is also a n experienced and educated finance and economics expert. He knows more about the big picture than just about anyone.

He was talking about using tariffs like this back 30 years ago, there is an Oprah interview where is states as much.

This is a very long game and researched gambit he is employing. trump has been mulling this action over for at least 30 years!

I guess her furor over the “Bleeding whatever” comment is all forgiven. And her stint at CNN didn’t work out to well either. I used to like her many years ago, but to me it looks like she wants to appear like she’s a prominent spokes person once again but I think her day is past.

21st century Americans aren’t known for their patience. I hope we actually get to find out if this is working or not.

Is the big bump-up today in stocks due to Trump’s pausing tariffs for 90 days (exclusive of China)?

I too think her day has past to be prominent. But I think she can be interesting to listen to, given her right turn or U-turn.
