Though Fox News hosts remained largely silent during Donald Trump's first spat with Megyn Kelly, the channel's personalities were quick to defend their colleague Tuesday morning after Trump again decided to ridicule Kelly.
Trump had patched up his relationship with Fox after commenting that Kelly "had blood coming out of her wherever" during the first Republican presidential debate. However, on Monday night he said Kelly was "off her game" upon returning from vacation. He also retweeted a comment calling Kelly a "bimbo."
During "Fox and Friends" on Tuesday morning, co-host Brian Kilmeade said Trump's tweets attacking Kelly were "totally out of control" and "unwarranted."
"You cannot, you should not be going after her," he said. "He is totally out of bounds reigniting that fight. I don't know if he expects to get ratings out of that, or poll numbers, but he's not going to be successful."
Numerous hosts and contributors on Fox News followed suit with tweets defending Kelly and calling out Trump's retweet of a comment calling Kelly a "bimbo."

I’m sorry does anyone care about Meg Kelly. Trump should move on!
Geraldo? Hahahahaha!
Truth hurts
Hannity, too.
If those are the backers of Kelly, Lawd forbid...not much of a back up, they are all nuts.....
GO Trump 2016!!!
Those clowns support the RINO elites or dimoKKKRATS in the case of Geraldo.
Oh but they can take GOP talking point pot shots all day long huh?
Tough, Fox. Eat your peas. You bought and paid for them.
She ought to shut her trap and report the news...not try to make it.
leave @megynkelly alone
Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) August 25, 2015
Hannity is the blue collar, not as bright O’Reilly.
Donald, let it go. She’s just a goldfish in a sea among sharks. You should be focusing on the issues and continue to carry those forward. Remember you mission. Remember. She’s history written in the pages. Give her no more time or reference. Ignore the cracker and go for the wine. We will need it for celebrating. Don’t waste your time and the small fish.
Media creatures “circling the wagons” to protect their own. Kelly was wrong!
Please tell me Gerry Rivers and Shep aren’t going to give us the Faux Up-skirt shots!
Sorry, correction.....
Don’t waste your time on the small fish
Sean Hannity tells his friend Donald Trump to leave @megynkelly alone. Exit question: And if he doesnt?
Megyn — if you didn’t ask that ridiculous line of questioning in the debate, nobody would be having this conversation.
By the way, put your big girl pants on vacation is over.
Trump does need to move away from this and talk issues. Nobody cares about some bimbo blonde reporter.
Meg needs twitter help? LoL.
Kelly took Hannity’s slot. too contrived for him to be rushing to her defense .
I could do without Fox , but not Trump. If we loose trump, planned parenthood , pro - polyamory kelly will walk all over the other squishes.
I’m sorry Fox News but you attacked first.
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
You guys have been attacking Trump and pushing your little boy Jeb....
If you want the attacks to stop, then treat Trump fair instead of all the personal vindictive attacks.
Treat Trump the way you treat Jeb, and everything will be okay.
